January Has Been a Bad Month For Celebrities

February 2nd, 2008 · No Comments · Tagged as Actors · Actresses · Celebrity

Something’s in the air this past week. Not one but at least five celebrities - including several actresses - have been hospitalized, put in/ entered rehab, or a psych ward.

Eva Mendes entered rehab in Utah.
Sean Young entered rehab after heckling Julian Schabel during the SAG Awards, after she was over-served alcohol.
Britney Spears the UCLA psych ward, went ballistic and was declared “GD” (Gravely Disabled).
Amy Winehouse was hospitalized and put on a drip, possibly as an aid to getting off her crack addiction. (Winehouse’s husband, who is in jail, recently said that he gave her three months to live if she didn’t wise up. And her mother said that Amy could be dead within the year.) Hopefully she’ll be well for the Grammy Awards (Feb 10).
Grey’s Anatomy star Justin Chambers was also at UCLA psych ward, was treated and checked out. (His rep claims exhaustion and a sleeping disorder, but I think he saw how much money his Grey’s Anatomy co-star Katherine Heigl gets for her crappy movies and lost it.)

Add to all this the rumors that Kirsten Dunst might be on the verge of a breakdown. Though it might have to do with her ex Jake Gyllenhaal reportedly ready to propose to Reese Witherspoon.

Don’t know if this is it, but January does tend to contribute to depression. But poking fun or not, I hope they all get well.
