Some stars are trying to delay their stint in rehab as long as possible. Others are trying to prolong theirs. Chris Klein falls into the latter category.

Last month, after his second career DUI, Mamma Mia's greatest loss voluntarily checked himself into a 30-day treatment program to deal with his "disease."

Today comes word, as the end of his time at Utah's Cirque Lodge nears, that he will extend his stay in the facility.

His rep confirmed the plans to E! News and said he is doing "amazing" in the program.

"I spoke to him yesterday for about 30 minutes," Jaime Primak said. "It's a wonderful facility. He's taking it very seriously and he sounds better than I have ever heard him sound!"

It's unclear how much longer Klein plans to seek treatment, but we hope it's as long as he needs to get better.
