Shia LaBeouf Talks About Being Wasted
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Television, Drunk, Legal Issues, Videos,
Given the news about Shia LaBeouf’s recent DUI, this interview he gave back in May really doesn’t seem that funny.
On Late Night with David Letterman, the 22-year-old promoted Indiana Jones and gave a detailed explanation for his drunken arrest at a Chicago Walgreen’s. While the actor did admit to being “a moron,” he also lovingly referred to alcohol as “special magic sauce.”
When asked what he learned about his run-in with the law, LaBeouf eerily said: “Drinking and driving is one thing, but drinking and shopping…it’s just as bad.”

Lily Allen Shocks Fans, Press at Glamour Awards

In less than a day, British punkster Lily Allen managed to shock both fans and press several times at Glamour‘s Women of the Year Awards, including a much talked-about quick departure due to her intoxication.
First there was the hair. Having just gone from dark to light, no one expected Lily to quickly change to an extreme pink! To be honest, while many folks slammed her fashion for the choice in hair color, I loved it! Okay, so I may be slightly biased since that is my own personal favorite hair color, but jewelry designer Tarina Tarantino and pop rebel Pink have both successfully pulled it off—why can’t Lily?

Restraining Order Filed Against Bill Murray
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Divorce, Legal Issues, Rumors,
Every once in a while there’s a story you personally wish wasn’t true. This one would be mine.
On May 12, Jennifer Butler Murray, wife of comedian Bill Murray, filed for divorce in Charleston, South Carolina. And while most of us are used to hearing the overused phrase “irreconcilable differences,” what Jennifer had to say in those papers could put the Charlie Sheen-Denise Richards feud to shame.
According to the court documents, Jennifer blames “adultery, addiction to marijuana and alcohol, abusive behavior, physical abuse, sexual addictions and frequent abandonment” as the reasons for the end of her 10-year marriage.
Butler also felt it was necessary to file a restraining order against Bill due to his reportedly violent nature. Despite moving with their four children into a separate residence back in 2006, Murray allegedly came to his estranged wife’s home and physically harmed her. The Lost in Translation star supposedly “hit her in the face and then told her she was ‘lucky he didn’t kill her.’ ”

No Cosmos for Kristin Davis
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies,
Sex and the City star Kristin Davis (we know her best as Charlotte York-Goldenblatt) recently sat down with Health magazine to talk Sex, cosmopolitans and her past. What she revealed may seem more than surprising to die-hard Sex fans.
You’re in a fashionable Manhattan club when you notice Kristin Davis sitting some stools away. If your first impulse is to tell the barkeep to send a cosmo over her way, resist. In her interview, Davis admitted that she used to suffer from alcoholism - and she never touches the bevy of free cocktails she receives from faithful fans. “I get sent many a cosmo,” Davis admitted. “I never drink them…Why risk it?”
Unlike her happily married character, Davis, 43, is still a single gal with no kids to call her own. She would, however “love to have children.” Davis said she admires Angelina Jolie, and would consider adoption. But let’s not cash it all in just yet. Kristin also admitted “I would still like to find a man and have a baby with him.” Just remember, guys, cosmos definitely aren’t the way to her heart.

Pat O’Brien Given Another Chance
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Drunk,
Despite earlier reports that Pat O’Brien would be leaving his post on The Insider, it seems the show’s producers are being forced to return to square one.
For some time, it appeared that Donny Osmond was being groomed to be Lara Spencer‘s new co-host. Unfortunately, the performer decided he didn’t want to commit to anything more than just an interim position. Realizing the entertainment program would not work with a solo anchor alone, the Insider‘s execs opted to give the recently rehabbed frontman one more try.
Come next Monday, we’ll get to see the refreshed Pat on air once again. What we won’t see is him standing next to Spencer. For the time being, O’Brien will do his share from Los Angeles while Lara continues her hosting duties from New York. Apparently keeping him in California is the best thing for his sobriety. (He really should be within driving distance of Promises.)

Rehab Star Cut Off
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Drunk, Where Are They Now?,
Although she seemed very determined to quit her boozing ways, Mary Carey is apparently still having problems quitting the bottle altogether.
The former porn star was one of several celebrities who opened up about their troubled pasts on the recent season of Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew. Carey voluntarily checked herself in hoping to separate herself from that segment of the film industry and to stop her destructive drinking.
Unfortunately, the 27-year-old was reportedly seen downing a glass of wine in New York last week. When a member of a restaurant staff recognized her, she was later cut off. Despite her slip-up, Mary later claimed that she was “37 days” sober. (Apparently things made from grapes don’t count?)
While we’d like to think that she has been sober for longer (the show started airing in January), we sadly realize rehab stories do not all end well. Here’s to hoping that Carey’s recent incident was only just a minor bump on her road to good health.

The Insider Drops Pat O’Brien
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Drunk, Rumors,
What’s the best way to replace a lushy anchor? You substitute him with a non-drinking Mormon.
Just last month, we told you about Pat O’Brien’s recent trip to rehab. The Insider host, who made a living by talking about other celebrity issues, entered himself into treatment hoping to “maintain his sobriety.” (In other words, he wanted to stop drunk-dialing again.)
Since O’Brien’s leave of absence, a variety of people have stepped in to fill his shoes on the entertainment program. As of late, Donny Osmond has not only been the main subject of the show’s daily stories, he’s been pulling double-duty as Lara Spencer’s co-host. Now it seems that gig will become a permanent deal. According to the New York Post, Donny will be taking advantage of his new found popularity (thanks Marie!) and become a regular fixture in our households.
As for O’Brien? Paramount is apparently opting not to ‘renew’ his three-year contract. (That sounds much better than being ‘fired’.) I guess he’ll have a lot more time now to call a few friends.

The Insider’s Pat O’Brien in Rehab
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Drunk,
Apparently someone couldn’t handle another day of Danielynn coverage…
The Insider’s Pat O’Brien has once again become the focus of Hollywood news. The entertainment/tabloid show host just readmitted himself into rehab for alcohol abuse. This marks the second time in three years O’Brien has sought treatment for this problem.
Back in 2005, the 59-year-old hit rock bottom under very public circumstances. Sexually explicit voicemails he recorded while under the influence somehow found their way on to the internet. In an attempt to save face - and his job - O’Brien was forced to make a mea culpa on a primetime version of Dr. Phil.

Lindsay Lohan Hates Being Alone At Night
In an interview appearing in the March issue of Glamour magazine, Lindsay Lohan talks about her party girl image, getting back to work and how she’s trying to rid her life of bad influences.
“There are friends that have been hard to hang out with because they’ve gone done a different path,” the actress, 21, says in her first interview since being in rehab. “But it’s hard because I’m the kind of person who wants to trust everyone.”
Lohan also expresses empathy for Britney Spears and Amy Winehouse and insists that she’s comfortable with her own company—to a point.
“I’m fine being alone during the day, but I hate being alone at night. I like having friends around me, but now I’d much rather be at home,” she says, pointing out that she now suddenly has more hours of the day to fill, which she tries to do by writing in her journal and watching TV.
“That’s not to say I’ll never go to a club again,” she says, “because I’d be lying.”
