Baron Geisler Is in Rehab - or Not

Actor Baron Geisler is in rehab following another of his drunken groping of his female co-stars. After the daughter of Yayo Aguila and William Martinez, and Yasmin Kurdi, Baron's latest victim is Cherry Pie Picache, his co-star in the teleserye Noah.

Before going to rehab, Baron appeared in The Buzz, a PR move designed to ensure that Baron still has a career to go back to post rehab. I think that appearance did not help much seeing that after Boy Abunda made Baron the victim to show Cherry Pie that you do not say no to Boy Abunda and The Buzz.

I don't personally believe that Boy Abunda would stoop to that level. He played psychiatrist on that interview. How dare we even think that The Boy Abunda would play that kind of game?

Boy Abunda has elevated showbiz tsismis to new heights, don't you know? The way he announces those showbiz news on The Buzz just makes you believe that what Boy Abunda is reporting is very important in the grand scheme of things.

So back to Baron and his drunken ass. Is he really in rehab? That is the question. Baron remains unrepentant and unremorseful. He's a drunken mess full of excuses. Yeah, your house burned down twice. Get over it and talk to a psychiatrist. In lieu of an expensive psychiatrist, find a religion or found one. Just spare the public of your life's tragedies. A great majority of people have one or two. You're not special in that regard.

While it's hard to form a sentence with Baron and rehab in it, I believe that Baron was left with no choice. He was declared 'persona non grata' by the local talent managers association. Who will give him work and who will work willingly with him? Baron has no choice but to cool his heels in rehab while his team of enablers work to resuscitate his crumbling career.

Meanwhile his No 1 enabler, I mean his manager, swears that Baron is in rehab. In fact he proudly reported that Baron tested negative for illegal drugs. Right! Like that makes a big difference.

After rehab, we'll we see a new Baron- a Baron who looks like he doesn't smell and who just got out the shower? Will we see a Bible-quoting Baron in his post-rehab incarnation? We will see after 90 days.
