Heather Locklear was 'out of control' on alcohol and drugs when her sister Colleen called 911 for help, a source has told Entertainment Tonight.
The troubled actress, who has a history of drug and alcohol problems, was rushed to a suburban Los Angeles hospital after her worried sister rang for help.
As RadarOnline.com exclusively reported, Heather had been taking Xanax and had been drinking heavily when Colleen intervened.
Less than 48 hours earlier, Heather was visibly intoxicated when she sat courtside at a Laker's game.

"Heather becomes a different person on drugs," the source told ET, adding that her on-again-off-again relationship with former fiancé Jack Wagner has been particularly tough for her to handle. The fact that he's sober and she's not was the cause of their latest break-up.
Locklear's daughter Ava is now staying with her father, Heather's ex-husband Richie Sambora.

The actress was released from Los Robles Hospital and Medical Center late Friday.
"She is in no danger and she's going to be just fine," her parents Bill and Diane Locklear said in a statement.

You think this has anything to do with being a former popular tv character now aging in Hollywood? She should move away from there.

I bet she gets really horny and kinky when she's hammered. Leave her alone, she's fine.

Wait,wait,wait - Let me get this straight. She's depressed because Jack Wagner broke up w/ her because she drinks & pill pops too much. So to entice him back and remedy this, she runs off & drinks & pill pops. OK, got it.

Unless the booze and drugs were forced down her throat, Heather needs to be locked up, for her own sake.

She should be ashamed of herself. She is way too long in the tooth to still be trying to act like she's 19. How selfish not to put her daughter as #1 priority. This is embarrassing Heather. You need to grow the f**k UP!

Agree, crisco. Ava is an only child who needs her mother to be a sober, clean and responsible role model. Disgraceful.
