Christian Slater: 'Jail wasn't so bad'



Christian Slater has confessed that he did not mind spending time behind bars.

The actor - who served 59 days of a 90-day prison sentence in 1998 after being convicted of assault on his former girlfriend and a police officer while drunk - told People that he learned from the experience, which allowed him to prioritize his life.

"Honestly, [it was] not so bad. Jail was a result of me not taking time for myself," he explained.


Slater also revealed that he often contacts other celebrities who are going through addiction problems in order to show his support.
