YouTube Star Ted Williams Heading to Rehab

Ted Williams might have beaten homelessness and gotten scores of job offers, but some old problems remain. After a televised session with Dr. Phil, the man whose smooth radio voice made him a YouTube sensation has decided to check into a private, inpatient rehab facility to try to rid himself of dependencies on drugs and alcohol, USA Today reports.

Williams admitted that his sudden fame has allowed him to indulge in old vices—though he had earlier claimed to have been sober for two years, he admitted during the interview to drinking daily. "If Ted is ever going to get better, he's got to be honest with himself and admit he's addicted to drugs and alcohol," Dr. Phil said. The show airs tomorrow.
