An upcoming episode of CSI: Miami will feature a character, a young celebrity, who has shaved her head. This character, however, isn't the one that ends up on the coroner's slab. An actor doing a stint in rehab will be the one whose death ends up being investigated. From E! News:
A character inspired by the recently shorn pop star will appear in an upcoming episode of CSI:Miami about an actor who's killed during a stay in rehab, CBS confirmed to E! News Tuesday, calling Spears' influence "a small part of the episode."But don't worry, Britney, cause you're not the only celebrity, whose fall from grace has inspired television crime drama scenarios. Anna Nicole Smith's death is another story ripped straight from the headlines on into television fiction.
An episode of Law & Order: Criminal Intent will feature the untimely death of a spaced-out blonde bombshell, played by original Buffy the Vampire Slayer Kristy Swanson, whose life was anything but easy in her final days. Comedian David Cross has signed on to play the "Howard K. Sternish" role, according to a show publicist.OMG, if David Cross can somehow manage to sneak in a "Druggachusetts" joke in there somewhere, his role as my comedic hero will be confirmed....again.

Erick Delko is hot.

Even better, at the end when they throw his character in jail, he can start singing "Y'all are Brutalizing Me" a la Ronnie Dobbs.
