DMX CAMP DENIES 'CELEBRITY REHAB' REPORTS: Rep says rapper is not about to join cast for new season.

     *Those recent Internet reports about DMX becoming a cast member of VH1's "Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew" next season are bogus, according to the rapper's rep.

      “Several media outlets have reported that my client Earl Simmons, aka DMX has signed on to appear in VH1’s 'Celebrity Rehab' reality show,” DMX’s publicist Pam Pinnock told AllHipHop.com. “These reports are false and Mr. Simmons has not greed to appear in any reality show. Mr. Simmons is currently serving a 90 day jail sentence at Tent City Jail in Arizona.”

      Radar Online was among the initial outlets who reported that DMX, 38, would participate in the show’s upcoming season following his 90-day jail stint for theft, drug possession and animal cruelty.

       The artist was scheduled to be released from prison on April 30, but that release date has been postponed.       

       “He [DMX] has expressed great appreciation to the overwhelming amount of support he has received from his fans during this difficult time,” Pinnock told AllHipHop.com. “He would like his fans to know that he is taking this time to focus on his personal as well as spiritual growth, and is looking forward to being released soon.”
