Andy Dick appeared to be in good spirits while signing autographs in a rare public appearance just five months after his alleged near-fatal drug overdose.
Dick, 60, was photographed at a booth at the Hollywood Show convention on Friday, May 29, where he was seen chatting with attendees and singing various pieces of memorabilia.
During the rare outing, the troubled star wore a pinstriped jacket over a black T-shirt for the outing as he sat at a table with various promotional products scattered in front of him, according to photos obtained by Page Six.
Just five months before the outing, Dick was found unconscious after experiencing an apparent overdose in Los Angeles. The incident took place after years of Dick’s known struggles with substance abuse.
Dick was filming with friends Adam Carbone and Alexander Bailey in Hollywood on December 9, 2025, when he reportedly left the group and smoked crack cocaine with a random man on the street.
He fell unconscious and was revived after he received four shots of Narcan, a medication that can reverse the effects of opioid overdoses. The health scare was so serious that Dick told Page Six in January that he “legit died.”
“This is not funny, and I don’t remember this, but they say I came back to life, sat up, and the first thing outta my mouth was, ‘Where’s the vodka?’” he recalled.
In January, Dick told TMZ that he checked out of rehab and moved into a sober-living facility. He added that he was “taking things one day at a time and staying focused on sobriety” as he began a new chapter in his life.
Dick continued to open up about the overdose while appearing on the March 4 episode of the “Howie Mandel Does Stuff” podcast, in which he admitted he didn’t remember anything from the incident except “waking up in the ambulance.”
He confirmed he was dead and that his heart stopped, and he also shared that he turned “purple” and was “not breathing.”
Also during the appearance, Dick recalled that he had a scan after the incident and it revealed that he had “about five to seven holes” in his brain.
However, his rep clarified to Entertainment Weekly that the holes are not drug-related but were instead caused during a 2019 incident when a man punched Dick in the head.
“The issue with his brain is from the 2019 attack that almost killed Andy when an unprovoked attacker cold cocked Andy while he was outside of the club he and Paris Dylan had just performed,” the spokesperson explained. “We are assured that his brain will heal.”
The spokesperson continued, “As everyone knows, Andy has been battling his addictions for years. There was an incident this past December, but I am happy to report that Andy is healthy, sober and doing great!”
