Adoption Denial Madonna Malawi Mercy James

MERCY IS BETTER OFF WITH MADONNA

If Malawi officials really stick to their guns and refuse to allow Madonna to adopt Mercy James, it’s really a travesty and a crime against the little girl. (Mercy, above, is holding hands with Lourdes.) The welfare of this child should be considered first and bureaucracy and prejudices set aside. What chance does this child in an orphanage have if she remains in the poorest country in South Africa? It’s an AIDS ridden place where women have few rights, are routinely beaten by their husbands, and their life expectancy is 38. Regardless of what one thinks of Madonna, her children are well taken care of and educated. Give Mercy a chance for a life.

Booze Denial Drugs Lindsay Lohan Samantha Ronson Substance Abuse

LINDSAY LOHAN STILL HAS PLENTY OF SECRETS

Lindsay Lohan may be “out” with her relationship with Sam Ronson, but she’s still in the closet with her substance abuse. Sam was spinning for a lesbian party at the Roxy last Thursday and Lindsay was a huge hit with the gay girls. Many admirers wanted to send her drinks but she told them “I don’t drink, thank you.” At the same time she was sneakily drinking the vodka and red bulls that friends at her table ordered. Lindsay wouldn’t use the public bathroom so the Roxy allowed her to use a backstage band bathroom. A witness says she ran back and forth to her private bathroom all night – at least once every half hour. “It was obvious she wasn’t touching up her makeup.”

Addiction Booze Denial Drugs Heather Locklear Rehab

HEATHER LOCKLEAR CHECKED OUT OF REHAB EARLY

To be honest, sweet little Heather Locklear is one of the last people we ever expected to land in rehab. But since her divorce from Richie Sambora her personal problems have escalated. According to the Enquirer, Heather didn’t deliver herself to rehab to treat her “depression and anxiety” – she actually needed help with her addictions to alcohol, cocaine, and sleeping pills. On June 19 she checked into the Sierra Tucson clinic for treatment, but like Amy Winehouse , she checked OUT way too soon – on July 4! Her publicist says she’s still in treatment somewhere – we hope it’s true.
