Rehab: Not just for Amy Winehouse! Suddenly, there is a slew of boldface names checking in:
Kirsten Dunst
For what: Too much bubbly?
After hitting the Sundance Film Festival party circuit, Dunst, 25, checked into rehab this week, reports People magazine. Dubbed "Kirsten Drunkst" by the tabloids, she told Jay Leno in 2005 she stocks up on Veuve Cliquot champagne at Costco and "I have lots of alcohol and no food in my fridge. . . . Maybe in a few months you will see me in a rehab clinic."
Eva Mendes
For what: Rep's not saying.
Before temporarily checking out Wednesday, Mendes spent several weeks in a Utah center without reporters knowing she was there. The 33-year-old actress decided to "proactively attend to some personal issues that, while not critical, she felt deserved some outside professional support," her rep told People.
Delta Burke
For what: Depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, hoarding (!)
Burke, 51, checked into a psychiatric hospital last week to sort out her meds. "They just weren't working," she said in a phone interview posted on TMZ.com. And her pack-rat problem? "OK, have you seen those shows where they don't find the body for days, and they go in to clean up, and it's stacks of newspapers up to the ceiling? That's hoarding, and I hate it."
Our Digitally Fearless Leader
Oh, hello, New York Times? Just wondering: Does your publisher have a Facebook page? Hmmm, let's see, no hits on Arthur Ochs Sulzberger Jr. . . . Anyway, reason we ask is because our new publisher does.
She's Katharine Weymouth, and we bring this up not because she could buy and sell us many times over -- just because it's, you know, interesting to have a post-boomer with long blond hair heading up one of the region's biggest companies.
