If watching the New Year's Day marathon of Intervention on A&E has taught us anything about drug addicts, it's this: gay guys really love meth. Especially when they were raised Mormon. But aside from that, it's taught us that sometimes it takes more than one or two or three stabs at rehab before it sticks. Here's hoping that's the case with be-beehived, lesion-faced chanteuse Amy Winehouse, who is apparently headed back to recovery. According to CelebWarship, a source close to Winehouse says:
ìAmy has admitted she needs to check into rehab again. There are too many temptations for her in the UK, people around her in London are making it impossible for her to stay clean for any length of time. Her management had considered flying her to a clinic in Israel but are now looking further afield. They are assessing a clinic in Cape Town in South Africa.î
As for the scabs covering her body, Amyís rep claimed she suffered from a bacterial infection called impetigo, however, that might not be the full truth.
Doctor Carol Cooper said: ìThe damage is quite severe, but not unusual with crack cocaine abuse. Sheís got a number of sores, some of which look infected, and others that have formed ulcers.î
Hey, man, it took Lohan three tries. It took Robert Downey Jr. about forty. It's just funny that Amy's people think that Israel's not far away enough. Perhaps they should look into a research facility at the bottom of the Coral Sea. Or one on Melmac. Or how about at the Los Angeles Celebrity Scientology Center? We hear that nice Tom Cruise has personally helped people off drugs. Because he knows. He knows.
