Who Needs Help?
 

Wherein you, the readers, talk amongst yourselves.

It's hard to watch celebrities like DMX fall off the deep end, and you've got to wonder why someone in their lives hasn't successfully intervened. If you could send a celebrity or famous person to rehab (or a psychiatric hospital), who would it be?

if Amy Winehouse would get sober that would be lovely.
i would also love to see Weezy F. Baby get cleaned up.

I'd like to send BET President Debra Lee to a psychiatric hospital. I don't really think she's crazy but it would be nice payback.

I want to put Scientologists into psychiatric hospitals.

I would have to say Whitney.

I know that technically she's clean…but someone needs to sit this lady down and let her know she has abysmal taste in men. First Bobby, now Ray J? It's like, um, can you NOT hook up with a younger version of your crackheaded ex?

I think a therapist would have a field day with that mess.

I would put Naomi in for anger management.

Actually, I would put Lauren Hill in rehab before Naomi.

I second the motion for BET prez Debra Lee. She's a danger to herself and others. Amy's just hurting herself.

I would have to send Micheal Jackson to the 'Betty' before slapping the crap outta him first….that non-childhood story only worked the first 10 years buddy.

Cut the shit homie.

Miss Naomi. I love her dearly but her "past" drug use is obviously still very much present. She doesn't have an anger mgmt issue. She has a drug habit that makes her violent at times.
Amy Winehouse
DMX
Tracy Morgan

Psychiatric hospitals can't cure one from capitalizing on coonery.

I'd also help Amy. The other "Problem-Celebs" suck mostly. Amy has real talent. However, dying young could be her ticket to eternal fame. Maybe keep her alive for just one more album…

So none of yall would save D'Angelo, yall shady, he is just an alcoholic like your uncle, that's easier to cure than an across the pond crackhead.

Yesssss! Please save D'Angelo! I don't care fat or cut up, just so he could make some more good music.

Anger management doesn't work. Just pisses you off more.

ms. winehouse… lock her up on Geffen's yacht with an MD and some buprenorphine… then start the talk therapy… she could even work on an album on the boat… HELLO DAVID, ARE YA LISTENING??

@gib- A yacht! That's perfect! I'd been trying to think of where we could send Winehouse so that she couldn't escape or be passed any drugs. And we know she wouldn't try to swim for shore- she's basically made out of powder right now, so if she jumped in the water I'm pretty sure she'd dissolve.

Oh yeah- and Lauryn Hill. What the hell happened there?

Lisa Bonet, the NFL and The View.

@slick- Deangelo is on that powder too. Remember that caught him with a bag when he had that accident.

I would have to say Amy Winehouse.
