The singer has apparently received some rather disconcerting news regarding her drinking habits and the fact that she really has no choice but to quit or quit on life. Amy Winehouse’s doctors apparently took her for a harsh ride in explaining this, as a source relates: ”It’s the last chance saloon for Amy. Doctors have come down hard on her because of the severity of her situation. It’s a harsh reality but she had to hear it.” Rumors say that Amy Winehouse is aware of the seriousness of her situation this time around… after all, she did check herself into the clinic. Maybe this time around Amy Winehouse will actually manage to stay away from the alcohol and learn her lesson.
So it turns out that the singer’s progress in rehab hasn’t been all that great as report might have mentioned. Recently Lindsay Lohan was moved to another facility appertaining to the Betty Ford Clinic, supposedly for safety reasons given her stalker and whatnot, but now sources are claiming that Lindsay Lohan also got into a fight with a staff member due to a party bust a few days ago. This is what the source said on the matter: “Lindsay was moved to another property owned by the Betty Ford Center in order to preserve her safety, yes, but also to deal with any differences she might have had with anyone in that house.” So Lindsay Lohan is already back to partying… hopefully not the drinking kind otherwise her whole progress just goes down the drain.
Travis Barker is on a mission to help kids find cool alternatives to alcohol and drugs and it’s been reported that the rock star is starting by donating a bunch of drum kits to New York City schools.

Motley Crue lead singer Vince Neil recently put in a plea of not guilty to a misdemeanor drunk driving charge from back in June. If you remember, the rock star was pulled over for speeding in Las Vegas while being very over the legal alcohol limit. Though he was not present for the hearing, Vince’s lawyer put in the plea for him. A trial has been set for January 11th. At least he would get to enjoy the holidays before he can get possibly get carted off to prison. Why plead not guilty when all evidence says you are? If he was way over the alcohol limit, I say just throw him in jail. He was extremely lucky that he didn’t hurt anyone.
Jimmy ‘The Rev’ Sullivan, the 28-year old drummer for Avenged Sevenfold was found unresponsive in his Huntington Beach home at the end of December. Police said that the death appeared to be of natural causes but toxicology reports that recently came in say otherwise. It turns out that the rock star passed away from an accidental overdose of prescription drugs and alcohol. The report said that he suffered an “acute polydrug intoxication due to combined effects of Oxycodone, Oxymorphone, Diazepam/Nordiazepam and ethanol.” The band’s manager, Larry Jacobson, talked about Jimmy in a recent interview with Rolling Stone saying “To all of us who loved Jimmy, the only thing relevant about December 28 is that is the night we lost, too soon, a son, brother, friend and one of the most talented artists in the world. Every day, his parents and sisters, and his brothers in Avenged Sevenfold smile at the many memories they have of Jimmy and his fans around the world revel in the musical legacy he left them.”

After all, she’s going to be eighteen by then and this time she can do something really neat: leave the country for her party. This is what Miley Cyrus said about her birthday plans: “I hope I can just have a frickin’ break. Because I haven’t had time, even a week to chill. So I’m probably just going to go to the beach or something. I’ll take about 10 of my friends with me and hang out with the people I never really get to see. A lot of my friends, they work, and I’m in the business too so I’ll make sure we carve out some time so we can relax.” Considering it’s a coming-off age party, doubtful that Miley Cyrus will relax during that time… after all, she will then the able to get acquainted with the ultimate party friend: alcohol.

The famous British group will be the subject of a documentary that will tell the story of their rise to fame, the peak of their glory and their steady downfall? and maybe the stuff that led to their present-day reunion. A source said the following about the upcoming project: “Everyone in the Blur camp is really excited. There’s plenty of material to fit in – their first five years of struggle, their Britpop heyday with all the drinking and their gradual and bitter demise.” Sounds dreamy, the whole story of Blur in one neat little package? what?s a bit strange is that the band would be so eager to let the world see how they managed to screw everything up because of drinking.
