Drugs are bad. Drugs kill!

Is the echo of hypocrisy loud, Perez?

Does it hurt?

All the time you created a website mocking those fat/fugly/trainwrecks celebrities, while you secretly desired to become one yourself.

And now you are the fugly trainwreck. And it hurts, doesn't it.

It really hurts.

HEATH WOULD STILL BE ALIVE TODAY IF HE LIVED IN THE U. K. AND NOT ADDICT LAND AMERICA. CROOKED, GREEDY YANK DOCTORS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR HEATH'S DEATH.

just because this guy isn't heath ledger (who also died of a drug overdose remember? they were prescription drugs but lethal nonetheless when taken in EXCESS.) doesn't mean that he doesn't deserve respect in the afterlife. stop being an asshole and have some respect for his family and wife.
krissy says – reply to this

first… that is SO sad. how young to be a widow. second… i work for law enforcement and i have never heard of "police bail." Is that a UK thing? There is PR, Cash, corporate surety. That's it…..in the US n e way

Re: krissy – That's sad news - I knew him and know the rest of the Haggis Horns. He'll be a sad loss to the music world. Malcolm & Atholl keep the faith and carry on, thoughts are with everyone, especially Corinne.

Hey NUMBER 69! Talk to us in 20 years (if you are still ALIVE) Hopefully you will have matured and gotten wiser and then all your past drug use will affect your health and you will physically be a WRECK. I have seen some scary shit with older past users. good luck

So sad, thoughts and prayers are with CBR at this time. I've seen a bunch of American reports saying he was found in Hyde Park, London - not so! It was Hyde Park, Leeds (about 200 miles north of London) near to where CBR is from

i can't believe this. i was just listening to her album. never knew her husband was doing drugs. this kind of thing should never happen to her. i really hope that she get over this and be happy again.
Sarah Q says – reply to this

95

Jason and Corinne were an awesome couple. I know the devestation is deep and my sincerest love and consolation is sent to their family in this tough time. The only offer of restitution is to learn from this experience, maybe it'll be the lesson that helps someone else drop their drugs.
