JACKSON REFUSES REHAB

The Pulp Fiction star battled an addiction to booze and illegal substances before a stint in rehab in 1990 forced him to get clean.

And although Jackson has been sober for 18 years, he would ideally like to continue therapy to help steer him away from temptation - but Jackson has a strong dislike of the Alcoholics Anonymous meetings in LA.

He says, "It's just too weird. You hear guys saying stuff like, 'I've been hitting the red wine too heavy and I need to stop, but I want to keep smoking reefer (cannabis) and doing cocaine.'

"In New York, rehab is for real. You sit next to guys who were IV users, guys who stole s**t, guys who sold their bodies. In Los Angeles you're sitting next to a guy who wants to go easy on the fine wine. Man, that's a symptom of something right there."
