LOS ANGELES: Fame is not a condition, it's a disease. So said a contrite
Christian Slater on Sunday, meeting the press for the first time since being
sentenced last Tuesday to 90 days in jail. Slater pleaded no contest to a
battery of misdemeanor counts, including abusing his girlfriend, resisting
arrest and being under the influence of alcohol and cocaine.
