Rodman, 52, recently returned to America after a bizarre trip to North Korea where he publicly apologized for comments made about a detained American missionary, admitting he'd been drinking at the time.

"What was potentially a historic and monumental event turned into a nightmare for everyone concerned," the star's agent Darren Prince told USA Today in a statement.

He is embarrassed, saddened and remorseful for the anger and hurt his words have caused."
