Just six weeks after leaving rehab to treat an addiction to prescription pills, Gerard Butler was spotted partying up a storm at the Coachella Music Festival in Indio, Calif.

Butler, 42, finished his rehab stint at the famed Betty Ford Center in February, but a source told Breaking Celebrity News exclusively that the Scottish born star seemed to be having a wild time over the weekend.

“Gerard partied like crazy at Coachella,” an eyewitness said. “He looked totally disheveled at one point. He was dancing like a crazy guy."

Butler has spoken of his struggles with alcohol addiction in the past, admitting that at one point he didn't care if he died.

“I had gone from a 16-year-old who couldn’t wait to grasp life to a 22-year-old who didn’t care if he died in his sleep,” he told The Red Bulletin.

“I used to drink until I couldn’t remember anything. I was just mad for it and on a death wish. It was madness."

Another source who spotted Butler at Coachella tells Breaking Celebrity News that the actor stayed out all night long partying.
