Aug 16 2007Amy Winehouse leaves rehab

Singer Amy Winehouse walked out of rehab yesterday after less than 48 hours, and then took a helicopter to London for a brain scan. The Sun reports:
Doctors ordered Amy, 23, to have the brain scan after she had a seizure during her overdose. It will reveal whether the singer has a form of epilepsy — which could have been undetected until now.
So she had a seizure after taking a cocktail of heroin, ecstasy, cocaine and horse tranquillizers and the doctors deduced she might have epilepsy? Man, these doctors are really on top of their game. I would've guessed it was the insane amount of drugs, but no, it was epilepsy. You could go in after getting into a horrible car accident and they'd probably diagnose you with cancer. I mean, hey, why else would you be in such bad shape?

9. mywellrehearsedmistake - August 16, 2007 11:36 AM
Shouldn't that read 'epilepsy'?...
as in [insert badly dressed pop princess/cock sucking dope smoking cocaine snorting actress here] was 'exhausted' and pulled out of the show/cancelled her appearance/was taken to hospital [delete as applicable]
These PR people should print off forms and highlight the bits they need.

Speaking of rehab ... where has Blohan and KraziHotKelli been?
11. Bite Me! - August 16, 2007 11:38 AM
Epilepsy? Nah.
Diagnosis: Halloweenface.
12. Malffy Hernandes - August 16, 2007 11:38 AM
What are you kidding me?! She overdoses and not only do they have a helicopter transport her but for a brain scan for epilepsy...so fucking backwards man.
13. RichPort - August 16, 2007 11:40 AM
I can diagnose over the internet. She has uglilepsy.
14. rmc - August 16, 2007 11:41 AM
helicopter eh...that must have been quite the flight. USA to london. doubtful.
15. Jane_Says - August 16, 2007 11:43 AM
She took a HELICOPTER to London?? I thought she was at rehab in the U.S....
16. LJ - August 16, 2007 11:44 AM
The posts lately haven't been really up to par with what I think The Superficial can do, but this post? I don't know, it just had me laughing from the get go. NICE!
I mean...seizures?!?...thats really sad...
17. flavio - August 16, 2007 11:45 AM
somebody on the thread yesterday said to watch her 'fuck me pumps' video cause it was teh sexy, but whoever that was, shame on you! not hot.
18. LJ - August 16, 2007 11:46 AM
#10, someone asked about "she who should not be named" yesterday too. I'm pretty sure she's like Beetlejuice...that is if we say her name one more time she'll be back. NO one wants that so lets just enjoy the gift we've been given, you know, her being gone.
19. YouRang - August 16, 2007 11:49 AM
That bitch is only 23? Christ, I thought she was pushing 40. Apparently heroin, cocaine, ecstasy, and horse pills, combined are tough on the body. Who'd have known.
20. Madea - August 16, 2007 11:49 AM
Thanks 18.
But, seriously, who misses her? I sure as hell don't. Annoying cunt.
21. lambman - August 16, 2007 11:51 AM
Isn't it DETOX and not REHAB when you're there for 48 hours?
I mean we all know her feelings on going to rehab, right?
bygones, Amy is awesome her first CD rocked and the new one is 10 times better

That's what they said about Emily Rose, 'cept she was invaded by demons. Maybe it's the MothMan. Maybe Amy is being invaded by the same demons that.....SHUT THA FUCK UP!
Fucking doctors. Gee, it's just not possible to have a seizure because your brain is so polluted with everything under the sun. It's has to be something that SHE IS NOT RESPONSE-ABLE FOR. (Yes I meant to spell it like that, fucko!) Dog help the rest of the world in the next 25 years.
D'ya feel that.....d'ya hear that noise......it's not the earthquake in Peru, thats the sound of the decline of Western Civilization.
24. arc698 - August 16, 2007 11:55 AM
if you're bored of reading about this druggy
go to: WWW.THEINNERCLOCKWORK.COM
this chick in my opinion is still pretty punk rock.
25. Bite Me! - August 16, 2007 11:56 AM
@11 I knew the troll was up early this morning
26. YouRang - August 16, 2007 11:58 AM
#22 Wow, she never looked good. She stood to lose nothing getting fucked up on drugs.
27. wedgeone - August 16, 2007 11:59 AM
Can't scan what's not there.
The doctors will probably find oatmeal between her ears.
28. The Ghose of Funny - August 16, 2007 12:01 PM
Listen to Dennis Leary's take on rehab and therapy in "No Cure For Cancer."
Same for Kinnison (R.I.P.) Masters and geniuses those two. God I wish for the days of fucking, funny in-your-face humor. Now everyone is a pussy and "their feelings get hurt". (in a whiny plaintive baby-girl voice)

she's such a fucking idiot also this pussy above is not me
31. LayDeeBug - August 16, 2007 12:17 PM
OK, it's just getting pathetic now. I'm trying to wrap my head around why someone would post shit as other poeple on the site.
Are those the same people who as kids would take someones own hand, hit them in the face and say "Stop hitting yourself" or stand with their own hand almost touching another person and say "I'm not touching you" or the ones who would just make annoying noise for absolutely no reason because it annoyed people, or the ones who ate paste, or the ones who stayed in the closet and felt up the girls when they went to hang up their coats, or.....
(I could do this all day - what a bunch of, to quote someone on the FISH, "fucktards" - best insult I've ever heard)
32. mywellrehearsedmistake - August 16, 2007 12:26 PM
31. Yes, i agree, trolling is exactly like that - i used to hate that shit back then (the "why are you hitting yourself?" thing) and it was never funny and this pretending to be other people is just as sad! Get your own life, losers.
"asshats"
33. misslavey - August 16, 2007 12:29 PM
The brain scan was actually ordered 3 years ago. Because of universal health care, they're just now getting around to the procedure.
34. LM - August 16, 2007 12:33 PM
Huh. This is probably why the doctors insisted that I must have been high when I had a couple of tonic clonic seizures back in 2001... they ran two drug tests. Nope, just good ol' epilepsy! :D
She's not epileptic. She's just a junky. Besides, everyone knows you have to have at least TWO seizures to be considered epileptic. Duh.
35. jrzmommy - August 16, 2007 12:37 PM
Is ridiculous hair a symptom of epilepsy?
36. Superevil - August 16, 2007 12:50 PM
22: Am I the only on ehtat doesnt think that's her? If the before pic is the one on the right, where's the tattoo on her right forearm in the left pic?
37. Shallow Val - August 16, 2007 12:53 PM
Of course that's her. the tat is light to begin with and her arm is slightly turned. C'mon, you can't mistake that jaw, chin, everything. (por favoooor!)
38. Dizzybenny - August 16, 2007 1:01 PM
#22 thanks for that pic.
amazing that she was that hot before.
never knew the girl before recently!

I'm fisting my own vagina right now.
40. mywellrehearsedmistake - August 16, 2007 1:10 PM
LayDeeBug, that's awesome! Do you think I could fit my foot up in there? I've been practicing on my cousin, so I think I could do it.
41. Julia - August 16, 2007 1:10 PM
Epilepsy can be drug induced. ie she gave it to herself.
42. Geoff - August 16, 2007 1:11 PM
Dr. ' You changed your name to Winehouse'.
Winehouse 'Yea used to be shithouse'.
43. jrzmommy - August 16, 2007 1:16 PM
22--that isn't her, unless she had the tattoo on her right arm removed.
44. anon - August 16, 2007 1:20 PM
Another source says she actually went to a bar in London.
Some time ago she said that she's probably dead within a year. Good for her.
45. LM - August 16, 2007 1:40 PM
"Epilepsy can be drug induced"
*Seizures* can be drug induced... epilepsy can't be unless there is some brain damage (i.e., from loss of oxygen to the brain, or head trauma during a fall, etc., and even in those cases drugs aren't the direct cause).
46. space - August 16, 2007 1:54 PM
Does anybody stop to think that maybe that picture was BEFORE she got her tattoo?
47. LayDeeBug - August 16, 2007 1:58 PM
WOW, I have a troll.
Thank you 39, I feel so honored.
For the record, I would never write soemthing like that. So, that said,
Fuck off Troll
48. lambman - August 16, 2007 1:58 PM
36 and 43 -
that's TOTALLY her, here is a pic of her in the same outfit that's from the bbc website. She's been around in the UK for a few years her first album came out there in 2003 and that's when these pics were taken

49. LayDeeBug - August 16, 2007 2:01 PM
It's good to know I still got it. I managed to piss off some unoriginal troll.
You got to be clever to keep up with me. Obvious disgusting sexual references are the only language Trolls know. That and incest remarks.
So saaaad
50. Julia - August 16, 2007 2:04 PM
epilepsy can be indirectly drug induced. excuse my semantic error.
51. LayDeeBug - August 16, 2007 2:04 PM
Yup, that trolling doesn't bother me at all, as you can tell by the fact that I posted twice about it in 3 minutes.
52. mrs.t - August 16, 2007 2:05 PM
She has, and always did have, the wierdest possible body shape. It's 'the apple', right? AKA 'most likely to die of heart attack'. She's just fulfilling the prophecy of her genes.
53. LM - August 16, 2007 2:07 PM
@50: Sorry Julia, I was just making sure. Most people don't understand epilepsy and it's kind of a sore subject for me. ;)
54. mywellrehearsedmistake - August 16, 2007 2:09 PM
@53, so you're an epileptic? Are you foaming at the mouth right now?
55. LayDeeBug - August 16, 2007 2:13 PM
51 - nice try; keep trying to find my voice, you'll never succeed.
la la la la
56. LM - August 16, 2007 2:14 PM
HA! That's clever.
57. LayDeeBug - August 16, 2007 2:15 PM
Yup, this trolling doesn't bother me at all. It's not like I'm obsessing over it and continually talking about it or anything.
58. mywellrehearsedmistake - August 16, 2007 2:16 PM
@56, do you wear a helmet when you go outside?
59. Peter - August 16, 2007 2:21 PM
I wonder if this went through fact checking... probably not, seeing as The Sun got her age wrong.
60. LM - August 16, 2007 2:22 PM
@58, oh yeah, totally. It's got racing stripes and everything.
Thanks for proving my point, by the way. :) <3
61. Anybody who hates Trolls - August 16, 2007 2:24 PM
LayDeeBug's troll is a big empty hole
With no original ideas of it's own
It sits in a chair all covered with hair
And eats Kennel Rations from a dog bowl.
Boy is that troll stupid to thing tha LayDeeBug is the only name she uses.
62. mywellrehearsedmistake - August 16, 2007 2:25 PM
@60, what took you so long to reply? Were you too busy thrashing around on the floor and breaking the furniture?
63. Anybody who hates Trolls - August 16, 2007 2:27 PM
Boy is that troll stupid to think that LayDeeBug is the only name I use. I also use Anybody who hates Trolls, and like I said before, I'm not obsessing about it.
64. NKOTB - August 16, 2007 2:27 PM

65. LM - August 16, 2007 2:28 PM
@62, Don't be ridiculous! I live in a padded room where I can't hurt myself or others. Tsk. Silly person.
Also, I took so long to respond because I'm not sitting here compulsively hitting "Refresh" like SOME people... (sing song)
66. LayDeeBug - August 16, 2007 2:30 PM
You're so funny. This is the best time I've had in days. It gets really boring doing work, y;know.
You're giving me all the attention I want. Wheeeeeee!
I love being the center of attention. (clap-clap) Bring on the dancing girls....
67. Professional Troll - August 16, 2007 2:32 PM
@65, good job. It's hard to troll people when they have a sense of humor about it. I'll leave you alone, and may the racing stripes on your safety helmet always shine brightly.
I'll stick to trolling people I know I'm pissing off, like LayDeeBug.
68. LM - August 16, 2007 2:36 PM
@67, Yes, I am certainly unflappable if not un-flip-floppable! Oh dear, that was terrible.
69. Texas Tranny - August 16, 2007 2:37 PM
LayDeeBug, you have mail. You forgot to attach the last picture.
70. LayDeeBug - August 16, 2007 2:37 PM
Keep trying, you have no idea how much fun this is. I've said it before and I'll say it again....I can to this ALLLLL DAAAYYYY.
D'ya think I'd still be here if I didn't love it? (rolls eyes and says Pfft and does a little happy dance)
I'm a writer, I looooove doing this. BTW, why don't you follow me to the other posts, I'm getting lonely there.
71. LayDeeBug - August 16, 2007 2:39 PM
Hey TT
Didja hear, I have a troll (claps hands and says wheeeee). Remember in that movie Mothman, when the doctor says that R. Gere attracted the attention of the ghosts? Same thing here.
(does dancing baby dance)
72. AmeriCanadian - August 16, 2007 2:40 PM
Holy #$% she actually used to resemble a human being?!?! I refuse to believe that junkie is only 23. She looks almost $%$ elderly.

@22, 36 and 43. The pic on the right is flipped. notice how the words in the background are backwards?????? therefore, it's her left arm, and you can't see it in the most recent pic because it's in front of her.
84. Superevil - August 16, 2007 4:01 PM
83, good eye I didnt even notice that

i think that girl has style ,who cares what or how much drugs she does.if you have money and are over 21 you should be able to do whatever drugs you feel like doing.mixing all that at once is dangerous.just stick to good brown persian heroin mixed with high grade sinsee in a joint and just smoke rock coke in a pyrex bubbler and try to eat healthy food.

TT I didn't write that. For the record, I'll never post about something I'm doing off the site.
TT - when I;m on the FISH, it's all about what's going on the FISH.
Oh, TT, also, I know you will eventually see the email so I wouldn't tell you to go see it while on the FISH. Watch out, the troll is very crafty.

WTF is up with her eyeliner???? jesus.
