Kelly Osbourne Blames DNA

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Drugs, Drunk

Kelly Osbourne blames DNA for her addictionKelly Osbourne has blamed DNA for her addiction.

The Dancing With the Stars contestant—whose father, rocker Ozzy Osbourne, has had a long-running battle with drugs and alcohol—believes that her dependence on prescription drugs is something hardwired into her genes.

Kelly, who is now drug free, told Britain’s BBC Radio 5 Live, “I don’t have any shadow of a doubt that addiction is a disease. It is in your genes. The only people in my family who don’t have that gene are my mother and my sister Amy. I consider myself lucky that I saw both sides of it. Drugs stop you from screaming on the outside, but you are still screaming on the inside. I was addicted by 16. Drugs stopped me from feeling a certain way. Some people experience euphoria, but I never felt that. They numbed me and gave me confidence. It was like a magic medicine.”

Kelly—who has been in rehab four times, most recently in January—admits that she became a recluse during her lowest points of addiction.

Jack Osbourne Still Has Desire to Drink

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Drunk

Jack Osbourne is still tempted by alcohol.

The Adrenalin Junkie host - who gave up drinking following a 2003 stint in rehab - sometimes considers joining in with his friends when they are out together, but manages to exercise self-control.

“Sometimes there’s the occasional desire for it. It’s usually when we’ve had a really hard day working and everyone’s sat down having a beer, it would be nice to unwind with a beer but I know what it would end up like,” he said.

Despite his own teetotal stance, Jack insists he doesn’t object to people drinking around him. “My crew has a tendency to consume ridiculous amounts of alcohol sometimes so the next day when we have to be up at five in the morning, it’s just hilarious to see everyone so hungover,” Osbourne added. “I’m pretty sympathetic, I will make fun of them though, like, hit them on the head.”

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Television

DescriptionUPDATE: One report claims David has not had any extramarital affairs, while another claims he’s been cheating on Tea for years.

On Showtime’s website for Californication, ‘s character (Hank Moody) is described as having three vices: drink, drugs and women. In real life, the married father is now admitting to one of his own: sex.

In a statement released by Duchovny’s lawyer, the X-Files star is shockingly open about his treatment for this private issue. While he didn’t (obviously) go into detail, the 48-year-old didn’t try to lie (like some musicians) about his situation either. (Then again, maybe Tea Leoni wouldn’t let him.)

“I have voluntarily entered a facility for the treatment of sex addiction. I ask for respect and privacy for my wife and children as we deal with this situation as a family.”

Bill Murray and ex-wife

What could possibly be more surprising than hearing is a drug-addicted, abusive adulterer? Hearing that his divorce has already been finalized!

What was gearing up to be one of the nastiest settlements in Hollywood ended quietly and quickly two weeks ago - just one month after Jennifer Butler Murray filed the initial paperwork. Bill’s wife of nearly 11 years began divorce proceedings back in May citing “adultery, addiction to marijuana and alcohol, abusive behavior, sexual addictions and frequent abandonment” amongst her reasons. Jennifer also sought a restraining order at that time claiming the Groundhog Day star had been physically abusive to her.

Restraining Order Filed Against Bill Murray

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Divorce, Legal Issues, Rumors

Bill Murray, Jennifer Butler MurrayEvery once in a while there’s a story you personally wish wasn’t true. This one would be mine.

On May 12, Jennifer Butler Murray, wife of comedian , filed for divorce in Charleston, South Carolina. And while most of us are used to hearing the overused phrase “irreconcilable differences,” what Jennifer had to say in those papers could put the Charlie Sheen-Denise Richards feud to shame.

According to the court documents, Jennifer blames “adultery, addiction to marijuana and alcohol, abusive behavior, physical abuse, sexual addictions and frequent abandonment” as the reasons for the end of her 10-year marriage.

Butler also felt it was necessary to file a restraining order against Bill due to his reportedly violent nature. Despite moving with their four children into a separate residence back in 2006, Murray allegedly came to his estranged wife’s home and physically harmed her. The Lost in Translation star supposedly “hit her in the face and then told her she was ‘lucky he didn’t kill her.’ ”

“Addiction is a gene. I was born an addict and I’ll always be an addict, but I’ve learnt to live with it. There are different levels of addiction, whether it be drugs, spending money, overeating, or painting your nails 17 times a day. It’s an addictive gene and you have it the rest of your life.”
