Ke$ha to Also Receive Drinking Help in Rehab
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Drunk, Rumors,
Ke$ha will reportedly receive help for her heavy drinking while in rehab.
The "Timber" singer checked into a treatment facility earlier this month after admitting she is suffering from an eating disorder, and she will also address her alcohol consumption in a bid to be "completely healthy."
"In recent months, those closest to her had become increasingly worried about her drinking. It's been the stuff of legend in the past and she's never hidden the fact that she loves to drink. Now, though, part of her bid to get healthy is to get completely healthy -- and that will involve looking at her abuse of alcohol. Some of her advisers had raised this in the past," a source said.
However, insiders insist that the 26-year-old star's main reason for seeking treatment at Timberline Knolls near Chicago is just her eating disorder. "There's no doubt that Ke$ha has her demons and the chief one is an eating disorder. It's the primary reason she checked into Timberline Knolls," the source added.

Ke$ha has entered rehab for an eating disorder.
The 26-year-old singer said she wants to accept herself for who she is, and admitted she has struggled to embrace her own body despite being a "crusader for being yourself."
"I'm a crusader for being yourself and loving yourself but I've found it hard to practice. I'll be unavailable for the next 30 days, seeking treatment for my eating disorder ... to learn to love myself again. Exactly as I am," she told People.
The "Timber" hitmaker is said to be undergoing treatment Timberline Knolls near Chicago, the same facility where Demi Lovato found help. Despite admitting she needs help, the star has previously spoken about her body in a bizarre but positive way, explaining she uses her boobs to write songs by dangling them over her piano. "What I do is I turn off all the lights and I walk over to the piano naked. Then I gently lower myself and my boobs. They go on the keys and I just let them tickle the ivories. They really just go crazy," she previously said.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Dating, Paparazzi Photos,
Josh Brolin has been spotted with a new mystery woman.
The Gangster Squad star, who recently checked out of rehab in Northern California after a three-week stay, was spotted looking healthy and happy as he ran errands with an unidentified female in Los Angeles on Tuesday.
The 47-year-old actor, who sought treatment just weeks after allegedly getting into a drunken fist fight at a pub, dressed down for the outing in dark jeans and sunglasses, according to UsMagazine.com. Josh's divorce from Diane Lane, whom he split from in February after eight years of marriage, was finalized around the same time he entered rehab.
But a friend brushed off speculation his drinking problem was related to the breakdown of his marriage and said, "He realized he needed help and is committed to his sobriety." Another source previously insisted the former couple were still friends, adding, "It was a mutual decision. It is very amicable. It's not ugly, it's just over."

Colin Farrell: I Was Becoming Unhireable
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Drugs, Drunk, Features,
Colin Farrell feared he was "unhireable" due to his battles with drink and drugs.
The 37-year-old actor claims entering rehab for addiction to recreational drugs and painkillers in December 2005 helped salvage his burgeoning Hollywood career as he worried producers wouldn't want to hire him because of his hard-partying lifestyle: "I wouldn't have been able to maintain my life. The inside of rehab was a must-see for me at that stage. I was in a bad place. I'm sure I was becoming somewhat unhireable."
Following his sobering experience in rehab, the Irish star has gone on to enjoy critical acclaim in movies such as Saving Mr. Banks, but he says the greatest joys in his life are his two sons James, 10, and four-year-old Henry. When quizzed about his approach to parenting, he said, "Be present. Just run up and take it from there. My sons are fairly well behaved ... I don't know if that's a testament to me or them but they're lovely young fellas. You try to instil respect, politeness and gratitude for what they have and I just enjoy them immensely."

Chris Brown Sentenced to Rehab
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Legal Issues,
Chris Brown has been sentenced to ninety days in rehab.
A Los Angeles judge has ordered the R&B singer to spent three months in a court-approved treatment facility for the second time to deal with anger management issues. The decision was made on Wednesday during a probation status hearing stemming from his 2009 assault on then-girlfriend, pop star Rihanna.
Chris checked himself into rehab for anger management issues on October 29, only to be kicked out two weeks later, after he reportedly flew into a violent rage. TMZ have revealed that Chris threw a rock at his own mother's car window after she showed up to a "family session," and urged him to stay for extended treatment. "Mr. Brown proceeded to walk outside and pick up a rock and threw it through his mother's car window and it shattered," a court statement read.
The 24-year-old star could still face a probation violation due to his arrest last month on a misdemeanor assault charge in Washington, D.C. He supposedly punched 20-year-old man in the face outside his tour bus after he asked for a photograph with the star. TMZ also report that as a result of the judge wanting a report on the incident, Chris could still end up in prison. The singer was also sentenced to an additional 1,000 hours of community service this year after an alleged hit-and-run accident over the summer.
Brooke Mueller Hid Rehab from Doctors

Brooke Mueller hid two stints in rehab from doctors while she was pregnant.
The 36-year-old troubled star - who has four-year-old twins Bob and Max with Anger Management star Charlie Sheen - is believed to have been battling an addiction to crystal methamphetamine while she was carrying twin boys and allegedly kept this from medical staff involved in the safe delivery of her children - who were born seven weeks early in March 2009.
"Brooke didn't tell her obstetrician that she had been to rehab twice while pregnant... Not one member on her labor and delivery team knew she had been using crystal meth during most of her pregnancy," a source said.
Brooke and Charlie - who wed in 2008 - were both concerned that their children would be taken away from them if this was found out. "At that point, Charlie was very protective of Brooke, and didn't say anything because they both had a real fear that the boys would be taken away from them and placed in foster care. Brooke was also extremely afraid of being criminally charged with child endangerment because of her drug use while pregnant, so nothing was said to anyone," the source added.
