Amy Winehouse has been busted by the police on Wednesday for drug possession. It was just last week that the singer was questioned by police on charges of assault and later let off with a caution. This time around, she might not get so lucky. The 24-year old British pop wreck was again arrested by so-called appointment. This incident is apparently related to her crack smoking video a few months back. Perhaps there was some problem if they consider the many offenses she’s committed and that she really shouldn’t have had any drugs in her hands at that time. If we could trust Pete Doherty’s words, maybe jail would do Wino some good – though it’s doubtful.
Amy Winehouse is still keeping up her crazy antics and it’s made her loved ones want to take drastic measures. Wino’s dad Mitch has even come forward to say that he thinks rehab isn’t enough for his daughter and that he wants to do what Britney Spears’ parents did by forcing his daughter into a mental health facility. Mitch told UK’s News of the World “I want her sectioned (institutionalized). The situation is getting out of control. I want her off the street. I don’t think being somewhere for six weeks is going to cure her problems… I want Amy to be somewhere where she will be safe and where no harm can come to her. Obviously as her dad I will try and do what’s best for her. Unfortunately, what I think is best for Amy and what she thinks is best for her are two different things.”
Junkie jailbird Pete Doherty was in fear of his life last night – over a plot to cripple him by heroin suppliers he owed money.
The Babyshambles singer, 29, has been put into the segregation unit at tough Wormwood Scrubs prison in West London for his own safety. Shocked Doherty was told by prison officers of the threats against him by lags who gave him drugs on tick – and is said to have gone “white with fear”.
One insider said: “There are more drugs in here than outside. Pete is being given methadone to help wean him off smack but he is still desperate for it and has got well out of his depth. He has been writing IOU’s to the dealers and getting his gear on credit. But he has not paid up and they have realised they have been stitched up. There are some very heavy people who have lost money and want to hurt him bad. They won’t kill him – but it will be a pan of boiling water job with sugar in it, to scar him good and proper.”
Doherty is expected to be moved to an open prison as soon as space is available
Catch her if you can as Amy Winehouse is set to do just one appearance on the UK festival circuit this year. The only chance to see the wreck that is Wino in concert this summer is at Bestival on the Isle of Wight in September. The singer has agreed to be the Saturday headline act. I wish all of you, who are set to buy tickets expecting to see her, a ton of luck. You’re all quite aware of her history. Here’s to hoping that she shows up. But if her hubby gets out of jail early and goes bonkers with Wino and the drugs again, don’t hold your breath.
There may be justice served just yet in the case of Pete Doherty. The drug addict of a rocker is headed to jail for 14 weeks for breaking his probation order. Doing drugs is against the law and breaking the law is against probation terms – go figure. Reports say that Pete was taken to jail from West London Magistrate’s Court after a 30 minute hearing on Tuesday. His 14 week jail stint will affect any and all shows scheduled but his record company did say that they will be rescheduled and all tickets will be valid for the new date.
Fergie opens up about her battles with drug addiction and how it inspired her to help people with HIV in the April 2008 issue of Marie Claire. She talked about her gritty history, speaking of her childhood career and how it crystal meth entered her life. She then talks about the changes in her behavior because of her drug dependency and her subsequent downward spiral. Looking at where she is right now, you’d never know that all of that went on in her life. She’s really come a long way and she’s helping others with all her success. Kudos to you Fergie!
Pals fear for the sanity of troubled Amy Winehouse, as it is revealed she is back on drugs. The tormented singer, 24, who only last month spent two weeks in rehab, has returned to her old habits after telling chums: “I can’t go on.”
Amy is taking cocaine, ecstasy, cannabis and booze to dull her emotional pain, according to friends. They shockingly revealed:
She got a reluctant pal to smuggle drugs into the London rehab clinic on her first night there.
Was “clean” for less than ten days in her failed bid to pass a drugs test to get a US visa to attend the Grammy Awards.
Fears that without drugs she is just a zombie.
One horrified friend told how last week Amy deliberately burnt her hand with a lighter, screaming: “My life is a shell of what it was. People talk to me and I just zone out. It’s like the whole world is now stillborn. Colours aren’t as bright and love doesn’t feel real. I don’t know who I am and I just feel numb.”
The pal added: “We were sat around the table when she held a lighter over her hand and let the flame scar her skin. Amy has been up and down in a way she never was before. One minute she’ll be fine, the next she’ll be in a heap on the floor, screaming she can’t go on. She feels that rehab is turning her into some sort of zombie with no emotion.”
The revelations follow Amy’s twitchy and erratic performance at the Brits.
Amy Winehouse has been brought to the hospital. But don’t fret, it’s not necessarily a bad thing. The singer’s hospitalization was said to be needed, so says her father. Wino was suffering from dehydration, was vomiting a lot and needed to be put on a drip to get fluids and essentials back in her system.
The reasons for her hospitalization are actually symptoms of withdrawal and that’s good because it means that she’s not back on drugs. Wino’s dad said that she was moved to a hospital because her rehab facility did not have sufficient medical facilities. It looks like everything is going according to the rehab plan.
Rumors continue to fly concerning Heath Ledger’s sudden death. The Post has reported that Heath was a regular cocaine and heroin user over the past year. Reports now say that is what caused the breakup between Heath and Michelle.
A “friend” of Heath’s (who did drugs with him) told The Post that “she couldn’t take it anymore. Heath wouldn’t show up for two or three days, and all of a sudden he would show up on her doorstep, an absolute wreck.” Michelle gave Heath a choice between her and Matilda or the drugs. It was a choice Heath had trouble making.
While many have said it was an overdose that caused his death, no official word will be released until toxicology reports are back.
It was reported that Amy Winehouse checked herself into a rehab facility on Tuesday night but that is not the case. The troubled singer was seeking medical treatment that night in London but it had nothing to do with her drug problems. A rep for the singer has cleared things up saying that “Amy is not in rehab. She was seeing a doctor who she regularly sees as part of her ongoing treatment. It was a regular appointment which she attends all the time. She has not checked in overnight.”
That’s such a shame. Amy is one person who definitely needs to go to rehab. Can’t they force her in there?
London has been quiet over the festive period, but that is all bound to change now Amy Winehouse has returned to home soil. And the break away with Bryan Adams for Christmas doesn’t seem to have improved her mental state any.
Erratic Amy obviously deemed the flight a perfect time to put on a mini one-woman fashion show. No less than three clothing changes before she touched down on English soil following her Caribbean holiday.
She strolled into Barbados airport (where she kipped on a sofa) wearing a flowery crop top, then swapped it for her notorious red bra and an East 17-inspired string vest. It did not take long for her to realise that England is not quite as balmy as the Caribbean and swiftly changed again into a grey T-shirt and beige cardigan
Not only did the holiday not seem to improve her craziness, but Amy looked no different at all. Not a tan in sight – in fact if anything she just looks a bit dirtier. Is there no helping this woman?
If you say Amy Winehouse is a hot mess, chances are that everyone around you would agree. And no one knows this fact better than her own mother. Mother knows best after all.
In an open letter which was published in the UK’s News of the World, Janis Winehouse pleaded for her daughter to get help. In the letter, Janis writes “You are still my baby and you always will be. I pile hope upon hope that you will make that decision, Amy, and your strong will can bend for just a moment to make that decision and come home to me… Early fame has overwhelmed you, it’s dizzied you and muddled your mind… remember you’re just an ordinary human being, no stronger than any of the rest of us. You think you’re strong enough to get through this on your own, darling, but you’re not.”
It’s been long overdue, if you ask me. But court documents released on Tuesday state that child welfare services are actually investigating Britney Spears for “multiple child abuse and neglect” allegations.
This information was included in a request from the L.A. County Department of Children and Family Services. They requested that the court unseal some of the documents regarding Britney, Kevin Federline, and their two sons, two-year-old Sean Preston and one-year-old Jayden James.
No specific allegations are mentioned, but family services agents did not request an alteration of the custody agreement at this time. Federline currently has custody of the boys because Britney fafiled to follow through with a court order for regular drug testing. She does, however, have supervised visits with the children.
Maybe this investigation will wake her up to the reality of the situation. Maybe she’ll start to put her children first and herself second. Maybe….
Lord knows why, but Amy Winehouse is completely lovesick despite having not much reason to be. The singer’s husband Blake Fielder-Civil is currently in jail for attempting to tamper with a case but Amy can’t get her mind off him even as she’s on a tour of the UK.
At a concert in Glasgow this past weekend, the troubled singer revealed how she plans to commemorate their upcoming six month anniversary. “I’m going to send him a bouquet of flowers. And I want everyone here to send Blake a red rose.”
If you’re one of the few who care, work in the flower business or you just want a good laugh, do send a rose to the Pentonville Prison in London.
The drug tests and court dates apparently have not kept Britney Spears from finding a new man. It was love from the moment he asked for her order.
Reports are that the former (current?) pop diva has been secretly dating Michael Marchand for about two weeks. She met him when he was her waiter at Mirabelle, a Los Angeles bistro.
Inside sources say the pair has been texting each other quite frequently and Britney has been seen having dinner with him several times. On Tuesday, the pair was caught leaving a restaurant together and photographers snapped the pic.
Those close to Britney say, “Their chemistry was immediate. He’s very turned on by her.” Umm, hello? He’s a warm blooded male and is breathing, right?
He’s not commenting right now, although we can bet he’s dying to spread the news that he’s the latest of Britney’s rash decisions. His only remark so far is to smile and say, “I can’t talk about that right now.”
As for Britney, she’s picking out wedding rings and looking for a justice of the peace in Vegas. Gotta snag him before he realizes what he’s gotten himself into!
Amy Winehouse was in between concert stops come Friday. You would think that she would take the time to rest up and gather some energy, but not our little Wino. The ‘Rehab’ singer was spotted leaving her London apartment at 3:45 AM early Friday morning. While most people are asleep at that time, Amy is up like the bat that got splatted on her eyes.
Maybe she couldn’t catch a wink because apart from the drama that has recently gone on in the past two weeks, Wino’s manager Thom Stone quit on Thursday because he was reportedly fed up with Amy’s continued use of heroin.
It’s Friday which means Kevin Federline’s gangster lawyer is at court ripping Britney Spears’ camp a new one. In this week’s edition, K-Fed’s people finally got the judge to agree that Britney should not be allowed to drive with the kids in the car. what I find interesting is that she obviously puts the kids in the car to get them to go to sleep… now she’s gonna be FORCED to act like a real mother and cope with her kids being kids. She uses that vehicle as an escape mechanism, because she knows the kid’s will keep it down while they’re in the car. Let’s see what happens now that she HAS to stay home with them. Chances are this unstable streak she has, is gonna worsen and she’s gonna lose it even more. I worry more than ever about those boys right now. Thank GOD there’s a monitor w/ her at all times.
Amy Winehouse’s husband Blake Fielder-Civil was officially charged with attempting to pervert the course of justice. Well things just went from bad to worse for Blake because the judge refused him bail. Winehouse was said to be sobbing uncontrollably and yelling ‘I love you’, as her husband was led away in handcuffs. He was remanded at London’s Thames Magistrates Court on Saturday until 23 November. Yeah sobbing that this idiot has been caught while trying to commit such a petty offense despite being a non celebrity he is hitting the headlines just because he has a celebrity wife. Look at him just look at him, he knows he has committed a crime and yet he thinks he will be able to get a bail for himself, that’s what I can call an over expectant person who ever thinks practically just imaginary. His advocate and his legal counsel would have suggested this to him and they just would have told him that we are taking a chance in case the judge turns out to be a jerk ass. As it happens to be the judge is not a jerk ass and Blake can spend the next two weeks in jail.
The hot mess that is Amy Winehouse has canceled or screwed up more shows/gigs/shoots than I can keep count of. Adding to the list of ‘Winehouse Disappointments’ is her latest video shoot for “Love Is a Losing Game.” Staff and film crew waited over 15 hours for Winehouse to show up for the video shoot, but she was a no-show. The shoot eventually had to be canceled and cost the studio 70,000 pounds. Amy is one girl whose going down the drain everyday. She gets up in the morning and is quite like Britney Spears these days, there is always something weird brewing up in both their lives now days. Amy, when she is in Canada there she is caught carrying cocaine or heroin in her hand bag, she cancels video shoots and gigs very much like Britney who at times will forget to pay her dancers. And right now she in that phase of her life that if her manager or anyone tells her that it has cost the studio 70,000 pounds she won’t regret it she will simply pay the money and show off.
This is a great case in point of the rumors so many people believe. Why would anyone believe that Brit would be going on Sesame Street? Where do people come up with these rumors? Like ‘Sesame Street’ would really want a trouble singer like Spears on the show. She can hardly keep her panties on! And why when you read that it is not true and has never even been discussed with her….why do you insist on slamming her anyway? Is K-Fed paying you? All random drug tests for Britney have been clean while K-Fed is caught on Video tape smoking pot…..then take care of their kids. Britney has certainly reacted to K-Fed taunting of her but most judges expect that from a CAD and tend to give the CAD enough rope to hang themselves. Keep watching coz that boy will be without child support soon now and with any luck he could serve time for slander.
Just when you think Britney Spears’ life couldn’t have been made any harder, it actually does. The sad part is that it’s her own doing. Her parenting coach has submitted her report to the court and it’s reportedly not so good.
Sources say that the 2 ½ page report says that Britney totally ignored the coach like she was just a potted plant. The coach says she was unable to teach Britney anything because the pop wreck refused to listen.
The report will play a critical role in determining if Britney should regain 50/50 custody. It also states that Britney ignores her kids, often disappeared and wasn’t around the kids or the coach and spends more time on the phone and changing clothes.
Troubled movie star Owen Wilson has rejoined Hollywood’s never-ending party after attempting suicide in August. The Wedding Crashers star was spotted drinking heavily at the Viceroy hotel in Santa Monica, California on October 5, and fellow revelers watched as he staggered out of the place. I think it’s probably not a good idea to be drinking when you’re depressed. But then you can expect only that from a troubled Hollywood celebrity to go even more into trouble when still not out of trouble. Probably he has still not recovered fully from his depressions and that’s why he thought that to forget his sorrows for a while it would be a nice idea to booze. He doesn’t want to get out of this depression and with these acts he is showing to all of us that he likes the depression and is getting used to a life with depression written all over it, some day he will repent when he has another tryst with high depression and suicide.
People and fans were surprised to see him, which is ridiculous. There should be no surprise at all there should be happiness expressed to see him looking and smiling after so many days. People have this knack of cribbing over past things which would be best if forgotten after a few days of media frenzy. His suicide attempt took place in August and it is now October 6, so this suicide thing should be way out of our minds now and we should be happy to see him attend parties and lead a normal life. I think we kind remember such incident more and then keep talking about these things which inturn doesn’t let the victim forget what happened. We shout, speak and gossip and that poor chap is left to feel the burden of our useless talks, he think we are genuinely concerned where as the fact remains we just want make fun till we like and then to hell with what ever happened. For now though just leave him in peace and enjoy the release of his latest movie and tell the good reviews follow in.
Angelina Jolie once took powerful drug LSD before a trip to children’s paradise Disneyland. The star admits taking the hallucinogenic drug before a trip to the tourist attraction in California. Going to a fun place like Disneyland and that too with powerful drugs shows that this country is filled with bad things and bad people who cannot enjoy the beautiful things without getting high. Isn’t Disney meant to be a fun place where you take the kids and the whole family to have fun and enjoy, but Jolie gives us the feeling that America and it’s people just do not know the meaning of entertainment at all. She says, “I remember taking LSD before I went to Disneyland.” She has also admitted to taking coke, heroin, ecstasy, LSD, everything. This way she gives me the jitters as to what may be the condition of all the young stars that are being introduced to drugs in America and how easily they fall prey to these drugs, I think Hollywood is marooned in this matter.
Samuel L. Jackson was among the well-wishers who visited Owen Wilson in the hospital on Monday. Jackson was in no mood to chat to the press gathered outside Los Angeles’ Cedars Sinai Medical Center when he arrived to spend a little time with his ailing pal. Some sources claim he cut his wrists and took a number of pills. I’m waiting for them to say he was hospitalized for “exhaustion.” Just wait for a couple days till when Owen’s reps come out with a planned conference or speech about the health of the actor, and then will be the time to see all the innocuous and funny excuses they will come up with. Well this really not the time to gag about his health and things. Let us leave him alone and recover coz once he’s out the barrage of question and counter gossips that would make headlines would drive him crazy, spare a thought for the poor guy.
John Travolta’s wife Kelly Preston has opened a new Scientology rehab center on her native Hawaii. The new drug rehabilitation clinic, which follows the principals of Preston’s religion, will use tried and tested alternative methods to ween addicts off painkillers and hard drugs. Why can’t celebs just stay out of rehab? Either creating one or going thru them. Nobody in h’wood succeeds in rehab because they go to country club facilities that cater to their every whim. They’re a slap in the face for people who go thru serious rehab, go to AA meetings and really WANT to turn their lives around. a rehab in Hawaii? I don’t drink, snort, pop or shoot, but sign me up! It sounds like a great vacation…even if it does subscribe to the whacked out “religion” of Scientology.
It seems as if a day cannot go by without Britney Spears being present at the top of the Hollywood news list. Just days after hitting a parked car there is no escaping trouble for her. An extra from her secretly filmed music video told US Weekly that Britney had a naked pool party after shooting. He said that the pool party turned into a game of Truth or Dare and that Britney was the first to undress followed by others. This behaviour has gotten her into some hot water this time. People magazine reported that Britney’s ex, Kevin Federline has gone to his lawyer to make a request for sole custody of their two children. Papers were filed yesterday asking the Judge for the kids. Ever since their split Britney has been on a downward spiral. It’s not as simple as a drug addiction, its actual mental decline. The girl is literally going crazy. Losing her kids would be terrible but if she can’t take care of herself how will she ever take care of them?
It’s going to be a hot, dry August for Vivica A. Fox. A Los Angeles judge has ordered the actress to abstain from drinking alcohol until she is arraigned on DUI charges on Sept. 5
Tsk, tsk. At her age she should be setting an example. Not acting like Lindsay, Paris and Nicole. What is it with these celebrities? If you’re drinking, leave the car at home and take a freaking cab. It’s not as if they can’t afford it. Even if they hire a good limo and a big chauffeur driven car it will cost them in the range of under a thousand dollars which they would pay for a designer habd bag or on a flashy fashion accessory anyways so why run the risk of being caught by the police. I think Paris Hilton and others have made it a fashion statement of being caught on DUI and then the next day the media publish your pics and make u a cult figure and many think that this will make them iconic and stuff like that. But they won’t realize that there are losing fame and acceptance amongst a large number so fans. Who cares put yourself in the gutter and stay happy.
Recently actor Tom Sizemore was busted for the possession of meth amphetamine. He is best known to some for his role in the movie Black Hawk Down. He was sentenced to sixteen months in prison for his crime but received the good news today that it would be cut down by half to only eight months. Having already spent two hundred and thirteen days behind bars he will receive some credit for that. Although it doesn’t seem that he is getting even a percentile of the sympathy Paris Hilton got for her measly three week stay. Sizemore apparently begged the judge tearfully last week to give him another chance to get clean. An addiction like crystal meth can destroy someone’s life entirely. I think it’s a shame that the world cares more about an irresponsible debutante than they do a man who really is in trouble.
Justin Long is a master thief. He started back in 1999 when he stole scenes from Tim Allen in “Galaxy Quest.” Since then he’s robbed Vince Vaughn (”Dodgeball”), Lindsay Lohan (”Herbie Fully Loaded”) and Jennifer Aniston (”The Break-Up”), among others. The actor was in two minds whether to accept Bruce Willis offer to play role in Die Hard 4.0 or take up an offer in a romantic movie as he has never had the chance to play a romantic charcter. But after doing the movie he is pleased that he took the decision to play the villian’s role next to Bruce Willis. I would like to see Paris Hilton be the bad guy. That would be fun. Let her play a diabolical super-scientist or something like that. She is sort of like the female Jeremy Irons — let’s face it, he said about who would he like to play the villians role in Die Hard 5. Ya, she would be nice in a villians role. She could play a drug mafia, drive a car fast without a licsense and have the cops chase her. She can do it but she ain’t got the acting skills to look like a villian.
