Street"},"content":{"rendered":"

Comedian Andy Dick has confessed his overdose on an L.A. street on Tuesday was due to smoking crack with a stranger.<\/p>\n

TMZ initially reported that Dick, 59, suffered an overdose in a Hollywood street on Tuesday. They claimed someone was screaming for the comedian to \u201cwake up,\u201d before Dick was administered the drug Narcan, which can reverse the effects of opiate overdoses. <\/p>\n

In a video interview<\/a> posted on TMZ on Wednesday, a dishevelled Dick discussed the life-threatening incident. He was joined by two friends, who were also in the initial overdose video.<\/p>\n

Asked about his health, the comedian said, \u201cDoesn\u2019t it look like I\u2019m 100 percent fine?\u201d He then claimed he is \u201c110 percent\u201d fine.<\/p>\n

One of the two unidentified friends told TMZ on the new video that they were hanging out with Dick before \u201che got away from us for a few minutes and did something that messed him up,\u201d and the friend \u201chad to go get some Narcan.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Dick then explains that he met a man who was his age, who he felt sorry for, and during their interaction on a Hollywood street the stranger \u201cwhipped out\u201d some crack.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd I\u2019m like, I might need a little bit of that,\u201d Dick said. \u201cI wanted to see what he was doing. And also, I don\u2019t mind doing a little crack every now and then.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dick later clarified that the stranger was \u201csmoking something on tinfoil,\u201d and he said \u201cjust give me some.\u201d<\/p>\n

The other friend in the video said he held Dick\u2019s hand during the incident and reminded him that he had two grandchildren to live for, which prompted the comedian to squeeze his hand in response.<\/p>\n

Dick\u2019s friend also explained the overdose was filmed because he was live streaming his whole day with the comedian. Dick, who said his two friends were not to blame for the incident, then said, \u201cI get mad at him if he\u2019s not recording.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Daily Beast has contacted Dick\u2019s reps for comment.<\/p>\n

After a successful career as a stand-up comedian, Dick got his TV break on The Ben Stiller Show in 1990.<\/p>\n

He appeared on the sitcom NewsRadio before getting his own program, The Andy Dick Show, in 2001.<\/p>\n

His battle with substance abuse has been well-documented. In 2016, he told Vice<\/a> that he had been to rehab over 20 times.<\/p>\n

In October 2017, Dick was fired from two movie roles<\/a> in the same month over allegations of inappropriate behavior on set.<\/p>\n

First he was fired from Raising Buchanan after reportedly \u201cgroping people\u2019s genitals, unwanted kissing\/licking and sexual propositions of at least four members of the production.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dick denied most of the allegations. Later that month, he was fired from Vampire Dad due to \u201cflagrant acts of improper conduct.\u201d <\/p>\n

The comedian told The Hollywood Reporter<\/a> that he took too many Xanax and went \u201ca bit loopy. I won\u2019t do it anymore. I won\u2019t lick anyone\u2019s face anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Comedian Andy Dick has confessed his overdose on an L.A. street on Tuesday was due to smoking crack…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":439314,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5123],"tags":[202903,1582,276,57932,2961,224,5337,10752],"class_list":{"0":"post-439313","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-los-angeles","8":"tag-andy-dick","9":"tag-ca","10":"tag-california","11":"tag-crack","12":"tag-la","13":"tag-los-angeles","14":"tag-losangeles","15":"tag-tmz"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115699086341094787","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/439313","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=439313"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/439313\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/439314"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=439313"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=439313"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=439313"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
