Lea Michele has offered her support to Zac Efron following his recent rehab stint.

The Glee actress - whose boyfriend Cory Monteith died from a heroin and alcohol overdose in July - has reached out to her New Year's Eve co-star following revelations he has been battling cocaine addiction and has vowed to do her best to help him stay sober. "Lea called Zac and told him, 'I'm here if you need me.' She urged him to get serious about having a 24-hour sobriety coach and to only spend time with people who care about his welfare. Lea must feel sad that she wasn't able to prevent Cory from relapsing. She knows Zac well and would hate to see him go down the same path," a source said.

Zac was delighted to hear from his friend and has promised to stay in regular contact with her. "Zac was really glad to hear from her. They have plans to go on a yoga outing together in LA later this year and he promised to discuss his state of mind with her weekly by phone or email," the source added.

The New York-based dealer - who has concealed his identity - has come forward to allege he witnessed the former Los Angeles Clippers basketball player consume the illegal drug on as many as 10 occasions since 2010 when Lamar visited Queens in New York where he grew up.

"[Lamar has a] huge problem and he has a very addictive personality. It is becoming worse as you can see. He [Lamar] likes to party, He's a pretty nice guy to be honest with you, but he's becoming ... his problem seems to be becoming a bigger problem . In my experience, he literally likes cocaine. He is a cocaine guy. He likes to smoke it," the dealer said in a video interview with RadarOnline.com.

He alleges the sportsman spent $16,000 on cocaine: "I know it for a fact because I sold him the stuff and saw him smoke it, he spent about 16 grand.

Khloe KardashianKhloe Kardashian says she isn't "made of steel."

The reality TV star is trying to cope with her relationship troubles and her husband Lamar Odom's recent DUI arrest - and she has taken to her Twitter account to hint it's proving difficult to stay strong: "As much as I wish I were made of steel ... I'm not ... I'm pretty damn close to it though hehe."

Khloe, 29, previously left a cryptic, but optimistic, message to her followers on the social networking site, which she has since deleted. "Smile and no one will notice," she wrote.

Lamar was stopped by the California Highway Patrol on Friday and released after posting $15,000 bail. "Kris wants Khloe to get her prenup money, plus the penalty for cheating. Kim, Kourtney [Khloe's sisters] and Kris want her to dump him. You can't live with a drug addict," a source said.

Lamar Odom and Khloe KardashianKhloe Kardashian reportedly staged an intervention for her husband on Wednesday, amid allegations he has a serious drug problem.

The Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star, 29, joined forces with several family members in a desperate bid to convince Los Angeles Clippers star Lamar Odom, 33, who was recently accused of cheating on her by two different women, to seek treatment in rehab but the meeting did not go as planned.

"Lamar has lost a ton of weight in the last few months which triggered a lot of the concern amongst the family.

He has had it with the Kardashians and just wants to be left alone. Everyone is very, very, worried about him," a source said.

Other sources confirmed to TMZ.com that the former LA Lakers star, who has been married to Khloe for four years, has had a problem with "hard-core recreational drugs" for two years and claim he secretly went to rehab in San Diego for three weeks in August 2012. His reality TV star wife is said to have hired a private investigator to make sure he didn't leave the facility.

Lea Michele and Cory MonteithLea Michele has made a pilgrimage to the hotel where her boyfriend, Cory Monteith, died.

The devastated Glee star made her first public outing since 31-year-old Cory was found dead from a heroin and alcohol overdose last weekend to the Vancouver hotel where he passed away. According to an eyewitness, Lea, 26, was "out of her mind" with grief when she stopped at a makeshift memorial to the star outside the Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel.

Rik Feydik, who claims to be a friend of Cory's, spotted Lea about an hour after the family left the body at the hospital. "Lea was in the back seat of one of the vehicles sitting between two bodyguards. She was wearing her signature huge black shades. Lea never got out of the vehicle but she stayed parked in in front of the memorial for five to seven minutes," Feydik said. When Rik approached the cars they raced off. "They were driving crazy," he added.

Nick StahlNick Stahl has been arrested for alleged possession of crystal meth.

The troubled Terminator 3: Rise of the Machine actor was arrested along with three other people by the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) in a Hollywood motel at 5am on Friday morning, according to TMZ. The police went to the motel to conduct a parole compliance check one of the other people and Nick was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time.

This is the latest blow for the star who was arrested for allegedly committing a "lewd act" at a porn shop in Los Angeles in December, an incident he claimed was a "misunderstanding." Nick was arrested by undercover vice officers for the LAPD at the store after they allegedly discovered him "touching himself" in a private booth.

He was also reported missing in May 2012 and again the following month. After his fist disappearance he re-emerged and was admitted to a rehabilitation clinic. However, he walked out of the facility and went to stay with a pal but was again reported missing when he failed to return to the friend's home.

Miley CyrusMiley Cyrus thinks alcohol is more dangerous than marijuana.

The "We Can't Stop" hitmaker, who apologized after she was caught smoking a bong in late 2010 but insisted it was salvia, a legal hallucinogen, at the time, has hinted that rumors she regularly uses the drug are true. When asked whether she is a stoner, the 20-year-old singer laughed and told the July issue of Rolling Stone magazine, "You can't ask someone that and expect them to say yes. I did a song with Snoop Dogg (Snoop Lion) called "Ashtrays and Heartbreaks," so people can put it together for themselves."

Miley, who was given a Bob Marley cake for her 19th birthday and later joked that she smoked "way too much f***ing weed," also revealed she is happy to live in California, where it is legal to use marijuana with a prescription: "I think alcohol is way more dangerous than marijuana -- people can be mad at me for saying that, but I don't care. I've seen a lot of people spiral down with alcohol, but I've never seen that happen with weed. As long as it isn't illegal, there are far more dangerous things. And it's legal in the state of California. So I'm happy to live in California, a place where you can be whoever you want to be."

Brooke MuellerBrooke Mueller quit rehab because it was "too hard."

The former wife of Charlie Sheen checked in to the Betty Ford Clinic in California last month for her 21st rehab stint but left the facility recently because she was unhappy at being asked to do chores. "Brooke didn't tell anyone, including her lawyer, that she had left Betty Ford. Brooke hated Betty Ford because she was required to do daily chores, which she resented. She complained that Betty Ford was just too hard. Betty Ford is hardcore and Brooke just doesn't respond well in situations where she can't call the shots," a source said.

However, 35-year-old Brooke's decision to leave rehab could ruin her chances at regaining custody of her four-year-old twin sons Bob and Max, who are currently being looked after by Charlie's other ex-wife Denise Richards. "This could have a serious impact on Brooke's bid to get custody of the twins. Brooke just doesn't seem to be taking get sober that seriously. Her doctors at Betty Ford advised her not to leave, but she did anyway. Her therapists will be submitting an extensive report about Brooke's time at Betty Ford and it won't be glowing, that is for sure," the insider added.
