Quote of the Day

mx0055514.jpg

"I've never hid it, but I've been sober the whole time I've been famous, so it wasn't like I had to go to rehab publicly. It's caused a lot of confusion out in the world. I get sent many a Cosmo! I never drink them. Why risk it?"

- Sex & The City star Kristin Davis tells the new issue of Health magazine, on being a recovering alcoholic

      Nice post…sends out a good message. In many people's minds, this is the smart way to go for a recovering alcoholic.

      Good for her- she really is an inspiration. If you click on the link to the magazine and read the interview with her, she really is an amazing person with a heart of gold.

      Re: Alexandra – As a non-drinker, and going through a new marriage late in life, I can tell you that ETOH will "let" anyone do anything. My very precious husband cannot remember anything after one beer. He is in treatment, as well. We love each other dearly, but have done and said things that we could not believe on videotape. This NOW explains to me why Kristen allowed herself to do the porn poses. ALCHOHOLISM COMES IN ALL FLAVORS, COLORS, INCOME BRACKETS (WE ARE SINGLE DIGIT MULTI M's), AND MY PARENTS, GRANDPARENTS, BOTH DEMS AND REPUBS, ALL WHITES, UPPER MIDDLE CLASS TO LOWER UPPER CLASS, DRANK LIKE FISH IN THE BAHAMAS. Thanks for coming out, Kristin. I spent last weekend in the guest room!!!

      that is why she looks so young is because she doesnt drink. hard to believe she is in mid 40s

      If I had to look at SJP all day long, I'd be a raging alcoholic- Kudos to her.

      re: EW - are you blind or just a moron????????????

      This lady is so beautiful and dignified.

    42. GalPal says – reply to this


      42

      Okay, but why doesn't she explain the photos of her working a fat cock? To me that screams for explanation over a past drinking problem. Admittedly she looks like she is having serious fun with that guy's beef stick, but it's out there and she's never said anything other than, "Not me."

      MEMO to all of the abusers in hollywood……….THIS is the way to handle your addictions. we don't care about your stays in some $$$$$$$ rehab….cause obviously its not workin for ya, right???? its one day at a time people, just for today. yesterday is gone, tomorrow aint here yet. stay in the moment, keep your shit to yourself, and go to AA!!!!

    44. Lauren says – reply to this


      44

      Theres someone who cares way too much what people think of her. WHO GIVES A %#&

    45. AA all the way says – reply to this


      45

      Good for her! She looks so pretty in this pix. Its refreshing to see someone take their sobriety seriously and not use it for publicity. & people wonder why Lindsey and all the other tards fail so miserably

      46

      God Bless her. Just take it one day at a time. My mom is a recovering alcoholic and she had to suffer, and suffer to hit a rock bottom, to finally get help, anf get sober…AND STAY sober. Kristin is a great example, and a courageous person to share that personal aspect of her life with the world. God Bless her!

      Re: GalPal – omg! that just cracked my ass up. I love the trems "working a fat cock" and "fun with that guy's beef stick"!! he he… but seriously..I commend her. Are you listening Lohan???? That's how a lady does sobriety. I already have my tickets bought for the SATC movie next friday! Team Charlotte!!!

      As an alcoholic in recovery myself, I am happy to see someone well-known so strongly and bravely talk about a disease that has a negative stigma but is just as treatable as, say, diabetes.

      Kudos Kristen!

      She is cool and and has grace a rare combo, and she is an example of recovery can REALLY work go girl

      So she was sober when she took those horrendus vee jay jay shots? I almost threw up seeing her naked. Her body is a wreck, and that big brown beaver needs to go.

      I just love her!!

    56. Dr Dan says – reply to this


      56

      She is incredibly mature about that. Alcohol has ruined more lives and killed more people than wars and guns and accidents. If there was no alcohol, the emergency departments would have to close. Sad but true.

      who fucking cares, go back to Miss Spider's Sunny Patch and get out of my life.

    58. over it says – reply to this

      who cares, she just wants some attention. She doesn't want to have to explain why she took those awful nude shots. nice try

      Re: abik – hat is why she looks so young is because she doesnt drink. hard to believe she is in mid 40s

      Abik, you are right. Drinking heavy can really age a person. Look at Kathleen Turner! I'm happy for Kristin that she's found serenity.

    60. L says – reply to this

      I LOVE her!!! I can't believe she was an alcoholic…does NOT seem the type! Well, good work girl! Keep it up…I'm afraid your alone on the sober train these days…

    61. nancycampbellslut says – reply to this


      61

      So was she drunk when she let someone photograph her blowing some guy? The photo that 's all over the 'net, and that was here on this site? Or is it because she's emotionally stunted, one effect of alcoholism?

    62. Vida says – reply to this


      62

      She strikes me as a good person. She has a lot of warmth in her smile and her eyes. Maybe she's had personal pictures of her exposed by a bitter ex, but she's held her held up during the media scandal. Congrats to her for overcoming her alcoholism and staying sober. It can't be easy in that industry.

      Re: L

      That's what's the disease is about - there's no one "type" of alcoholic! As someone stated earlier, they come in all shapes and sizes. Rich, poor, beautiful, brilliant, well-educated, high-powered, soccer moms, etc. Good for her, not an easy thing to do!

      Re: Dr Dan
      No Dr. Dan, I really don't think the emergency rooms would close if there was no alcohol. I don't think that four year old kids who bust their heads open while jumping on the bed are drunk. I don't think that people who break their wrist playing basketball are all drunk. I don't think the guys who smash their thumbs with a hammer are all drunk. You're an idiot and clearly not a Dr. Why don't you throw your self-righteous ass off a highway overpass, mmmkay?

      Really? Alcohol has killed more people and ruined more lives than wars and guns and accidents? Really? Do you have some statistical proof to back that up?

      She says she's been sober for 18 years. Awsome for her! So I think those pics were taken while sober. But really, who cares????? Who the hell doesn't take pics like that with their lovers? Come on now, you can't deny it, we all do it. She was just unfortunate enough to have them distributed all over the net. To hell with the haters, she's gorgeous, even naked, and she did no wrong! Congrats on your sobriety girl!
