I am sure no one is really surprised by this. Last month, Steven Tyler announced he was checking in to rehab to recover from 'foot surgery.' I think we all collectively rolled our eyes, but then dropped the issue. Aerosmith is legendary. You just don't talk about them like that.

Well, as it turns out, Steven Tyler told us the truth we didn't even ask for, revealing an addiction to pain pills and sleeping pills that he developed following foot surgery. He's been playing shows for more than 30 years, and that takes its toll. He was prescribed some pills to help him recover, and the obvious happened.

Tyler was last in rehab in 1986 to recover from drug and alcohol addiction. Now the 60-year old frontman is whipping himself back into shape to go back on the road.
