David Hasselhoff Suffers Alcohol Poisoning

May 4, 2009 By 1 Comment

‘Knight Rider’ actor and ‘America’s Got Talent’ judge David Hasselhoff was rushed to the hospital Saturday afternoon for alcohol poisoning.

The Hoff was discovered lying on the floor of his home by his 16 year-old daughter Hayley. He was barely conscious. No hamburger was in sight.

Hoff has had a problem hitting the bottle for years. Many of you remember his drunken, shirtless viral video his daughter made a few years. In that video, Hasselhoff tries to eat a burger while smashed and explains the importance of being sober to his child.

Via Radar:

“This time the vodka-guzzling ‘America’s Got Talent’ judge registered a staggering .39. alcohol level. Drunk driving in California is .08.”

Hopefully, Haselhoff gets help for his problem…or learns that benders have an ending point that don’t necessarily require a trip to the ER or crying on your living room floor while eating a burger.

Casey Aldridge In Car Wreck

April 27, 2009 By Leave a Comment

Casey Aldridge, aka Jaime Lynn Spears’ baby daddy, was rushed to the hospital early this morning after his truck swerved into a ditch and flipped back onto the pavement ejecting three out of the five passengers from the truck. Casey was driving.

Two of the people ejected from the vehicle denied medical treatment. Casey was the third person ejected. He is currently listed in stable condition at University of Mississippi Medical Center in Jackson, Miss.

Police couldn’t comment on whether or not alcohol was a factor in the crash. Due to the circumstances and the extent of his injuries, Casey wasn’t interviewed by police until four hours after the crash. However, he still faces charges as a result of the accident.

Via TMZ:

“Casey was charged with careless operation of a motor vehicle — a misdemeanor — and is currently recovering from his injuries at the University of Mississippi Medical Center in Jackson, Miss.”

For the sake of his young daughter and his meal ticket, we wish him a speedy recovery.

Avril Lavigne Falling Down Drunk…Again – Photos

April 9, 2009 By 4 Comments

Avril Lavigne and her husband, Derek Whibley, may be facing divorce rumors, but that isn’t slowing the “Sk8ter Boy” crooner down.

Lavigne was so drunk, she was unable to walk to her own car on Wednesday night. She and some of her friends hit up My House club and then hightailed it home so Avril could pass out into a vodka coma. She was stumbling around as her two of her friends held her up and prevented her from falling. Some say Avril is drinking herself straight into rehab. Sources are suggesting that her marriage is indeed crumbling and she has been pushing for more and more “girls night out” drinkfests thanks to her crumbling relationship with Derek. Her drinking is starting to get out of control and he is tired of putting up with her immature antics.

Sounds like my typical Wednesday night. Of course I am usually stumbling around my kitchen looking for donuts after watching American Idol instead of trudging home from a club.

Jonathan Rhys Meyers Back in Rehab

February 26, 2009 By 4 Comments

He isn’t exactly shy about having a penchant for alcohol. The self proclaimed booze hound from “The Tudors” is back in rehab.

Jonathan Rhys Meyers decided to check himself into facility in England to get help for his addiction. This is his third attempt at drying up. His first try at sobriety was back in 2005 where he was in and out of Promises in Malibu. Most recently he attempted at treatment in April of 2007. That failed as he was arrested in November of 2007 in Dublin with charges of being “drunk and in breach of the peace.”

Recently at the Golden Globes he was seen beyond tipsy after celebrating the night at Ranch Bar on the sunset strip. He was helped out by directer Jim Sherridan at the end of the night. He also missed out on celebrating his show’s accolades at the IFTAS in Ireland. “The Tudors” won a total of 10 awards. Meyers didn’t show up. This could be due to the fact he spotted buying a bottle of vodka the night before.

Per Contact Music:

“I didn’t start drinking until I was 25. Since then I’ve been drunk maybe a dozen and a half times. When I do I’m like Bambi. I’m all over the place, hopeless, like a 16-year-old kid. People notice.”

I adore this man. I hope he gets better soon. He can seek solace in my bosom and I promise to hide the liquor.

Mariah Carey Drinks On New Year, NOT Pregnant – Photos

January 3, 2009 By 2 Comments

Mariah Carey has been riding the pregnancy PR train for awhile now. She has been sidestepping baby rumors and even made a big deal of not drinking some champagne on Ellen.

Carey put an end to the pregnancy rumors this week after enjoying several alcoholic beverages while celebrating the New Year. She and her husband, Nick Cannon, were at Nikki Beach in St. Barth on Tuesday drinking red wine and eating raw oysters. Both booze and raw seafood are no-no’s for pregnant women.

I told you this would not happen. There is no way Mimi would share her Hello Kitty collection with a kid.

Joaquin Phoenix Tied to Brother’s Fate?

December 31, 2008 By 1 Comment

Let us hope and pray that Joaquin Phoenix can find a way to get clean. The actor, who recently announced his retirement from acting, has started down a destructive path again.

The “Walk the Line” star has fallen back into his addiction to drugs and alcohol. Friends and family are beyond worried for Joaquin fearing that he is loosing grip on his sanity in addition to his addictions.

The Daily Mail reports:

‘For people who know Joaquin, it’s been an incredibly traumatic year, filled with chaos. Everyone wants to help but nobody’s been able to break through. His bizarre behavior has everyone worried. It’s just getting scary.’

After failed attempts at rehab and bouts of hitting rock bottom, Phoenix is on a path of self destruction. After watching his brother, River Phoenix, die outside the Viper Room due to a drug overdose, sources say those close to the actor worry he is on the same path.

This is scary. Phoenix showed up to the Butter Party at Fontainebleau Miami Beach’s LIV nightclub wearing those hairclips from those “As Seen on TV” infomercials. You know this shiz is serious when he rocking Wonder Weaves or whatever they are.

Please take care of yourself Joaquin.
