Michaele Salahi has been kicked off Dr. Drew’s Celebrity Rehab because she lacked the one thing you need to enter rehab – an addiction!

A production source tells RadarOnline.com exclusively that The former Real Housewives of D.C. star was released from the show on Tuesday because she failed to show any signs of addiction.

"Michaele Salahi was discharged by Dr. Drew Pinsky approximately one hour ago. Michaele has a ton of issues but she clearly has no addiction issues, whatsoever,” says the source.

“Michaele was a distraction to other cast members, and was complaining that Dr. Drew wasn't properly treating her MS.

“Dr. Drew did a thorough medical examination of her, including a full neurological check-up, and she is fine. Michaele is all drama, that is her main issue."

But according to her husband Tareq, who spoke exclusively with RadarOnline.com, Michaele only agreed to do Celebrity Rehab to get help from Dr. Drew for her Multiple Sclerosis.

"She was really leaning on Dr. Drew who is a respected doctor to get her through some of the issues after the White House, when she went to Congress, when she went into relapse with her Multiple Sclerosis. She takes this very seriously."

Tareq adds that Michaele takes her condition seriously and that it was the show that wanted her to pretend to be something she wasn’t. Tareq says he now has plans of exposing the makings of reality shows on national television.

"My wife takes her health situation very seriously, she has a real diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis. You know, we can show you a bunch of emails about what they wanted her to pretend to be, therefore, but that's going to come out later on with one of the major networks."

"See the first episode of busting some of these reality shows open on ABC News 20/20. There will be a special on Friday and maybe more to come after that."

Calls to ABC News 20/20 for comment have not yet been returned.

As RadarOnline.com exclusively reported, Michael Lohan also checked into Dr. Drew's Celebrity Rehab. Michaele Salahi’s husband Tareq had been living in Michael's West Hollywood apartment while she filmed the show.

On Monday night, Lohan was furious at Tareq, claiming he owed him rent for the apartment, RadarOnline.com exclusively learned. According to a source close to the situation, Tareq has promised to pay Michael $2,500 to stay in the apartment for three weeks. When the money wasn't paid promptly, Michael left the Pasadena Recovery Center, with cameras in tow, and confronted Tareq at the apartment.

Breaking News: Reality Shows are Staged! Big freaking deal. Everyone knows. Nobody cares. And they are part of the problem - being on a 'reality' show themselves. Phoney Balogneys.

These two should be on the list of "Banished", along with Charlie Sheen (& hoes), Lindsay Lohan & (Mommy Dearest), Mel Gibson and Speidi. Have I missed anyone?

If she really cared about her MS she would have seen a doctor who specializes in the field. What does addictions / rehab have to do w/ treating MS. Just another way to be on camera. So pathetic.

If she truly cares about her health and if the husband really supports her, then they need to move far far away, find some nice little hot spot on a beach and relocate, no stress, no fakeness...and definitely no cameras allowed. Just go away!!

doubt the beotch even has MS... It would be nice if she did though... why couldn't she be one of the terminal cases, instead of someone much more deserving of life with the horrible disease?

Same BS after the White House. They just wanted to be on the Today show with their little emails trying to prove they aren't the dirtbags they are. Bag then the networks weren't hip to the Freak Show Salahi - now they are.

I do believe she has addiction problems, not to chemicals, etc. but to FAME. Have a feeling the SHOW found out she/them were pulling CRAP AGAIN, were going to WRITE A BOOK, ETC. and that is why, unofficially, she was DISMISSED. bye bye.
