  • Demi Moore was taken to a Los Angeles hospital on Monday night after paramedics responded to a 911 call at her home.  The night before, People claims Demi Moore spend a “late night out” with her 23-year-old daughter Rumer Willis, where she was seen grinding on the butt of one of Rumer’s “90210″ co-stars, unbottoning his shirt and “stickling his bare chest playfully.” Sources say Demi has a substance abuse problem  — although which substance is unclear — and is checking into a facility for care. A statement from her rep said, “Because of the stresses in her life right now, Demi has chosen to seek professional assistance to treat her exhaustion and improve her overall health.  She looks forward to getting well and is grateful for the support of her family and friends.” She has also dropped out of plans to play Gloria Steinem in the “Lovelace” biopic. Oh dear. We like Demi and wish her the best! [TMZ, People, US Weekly] Keep reading »

Watch This Drunk Guy Dancing To “Single Ladies”

Usually, if a video indicates there’s a drunk person dancing in it, I don’t watch it, because who wants to watch one more drunk person dancing like a fool? But this one is a must-see. This dude who had way too many is possessed by the spirit of Beyonce at the Minnesota State Fair. Busting a series of eye-popping moves to “Single Ladies,” he uses his water cooler as a prop, earns a few dollar bills, and ends up getting busted by the police. It is an amazing spectacle. (NB: We here at The Frisky do not condone drinking to excess, because if you do, you, too, may end up looking like a crazed loon in a YouTube video.) [BuzzFeed] Keep reading »

On “Intervention,” A Young Woman Snorts Drugs With A Tampon Tube

Susannah BreslinApril 14, 2010 //

I used to watch A&E’s addiction series, “Intervention,” religiously. After a while, though, I couldn’t take it anymore. I appreciate the struggles of addiction, but the stories are so often so heartbreaking. Watching people in the throes of intense addiction is agonizing. Every once in a while, though, I tune in again. This Monday, I watched an episode featuring Ashley, whose drug-addicted mother handed her over to her aunt and uncle when she was a child. She became addicted to black tar heroin and Xanax after her grandfather died. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the worst of it.
