A “Man Down Situation” is headed for VH1’s Celebrity Rehab. Everyone’s Favorite Delusional Recovering Crackhead, Frankie — best known for her turns on BET’s The Way It Is and Frankie & Neffe — appeared on The Rickey Smiley Morning Show on Atlanta’s Hot 107.9 Thursday morning, where she revealed that she will appear on the presently-shelved fourth season of VH1’s Celebrity Rehab.
