Kerry Katona Admits to Alcoholism

Filed under: Anglophilia > Kerry Katona

Look what happens when a celeb doesn't have a good PR gal/guy!

So last week, it was announced that the PR-less Brit trainwreck, Kerry Katona, was set to undergo a test to prove/disprove alcoholism because her $400K endorsement deal with UK food giant, Iceland, was in jeopardy.

After appearing 'wasted' on a Brit TV show, Kerry's employers 'asked' her to take said test in what appeared to be an effort to quell the outcries expressed by insulted customers.

Katona's meddling husband, former cabbie/dealer Mark Croft, said the following about the testing, "Iceland sorted everything out for us. They said: "We're concerned about Kerry, and want to make sure everything is fine."

But, come this weekend, Katona revealed in an interview:

"Four years ago I was diagnosed as an alcoholic after a stay in The Priory clinic. This is not common knowledge as I've never admitted it before. But this is a battle I will face for the rest of my life. I can get through days without a drink but it's hard. I never promise myself or my family that I can beat this addiction but I'll try bloody hard."

Is Iceland pissed that Kerry just didn't come clean to them?

This all could have been handled so much better!

We hope Kerry is getting help to stay sober.

Good luck, girl.

It's for the better!

    Kerry Katona is a former Atomic Kitten star who has MASSIVE melons.
    She is a LEGEND of pop along with Sam Fox and Sabrina.

    Is it too much to ask to post something interesting to get the week off to a good start……or is this all we have to look forward to?

    As a brit I am totally fed up hearing about her, she really needs to get a grip on her situation, stop making money by selling her boob jobs, etc and go away and get her life back. She's a total trainwreck, her poor children are growing up with this poor excuse as a mother. Her ex hubbie needs to come back to blighty and get custody of the two eldest. I swear if I have to read about her much longer or see her gurning away through another interview I might throw my pc out the window. GO AWAY U SAD EXCUSE FOR A WOMAN!!! Many thanks for letting me get that off my chest xxx

    He mentions Z-list yank stars no-one other than the US knows as well. Remember this site is on the WORLD wide web and not just America.

    Re: crotchrocket

    Atomic Kitten were VERY talented British band. NOT as talented as Take That or Leona Lewis but nevertheless BETTER than ANYTHING the USA has ever produced (apart from Hanson - they were ACE).



  15. 15

    I have to laugh at the fact that this site TRASHES Kerry Katona (a minor celebrity that barely anyone outside of England knows about) at every chance it gets. Then, when she admits that she does have a problem, you state that you 'hope that Kerry is getting help to stay sober' and wish her 'good luck'! Ridiculous.



  16. 16

    YAWN!! she's still around?!



  17. 17

    Re: Julian Meteor – LOL i hope you are being sarcastic.



  18. 18

    Who the hell is this anyway??? She should just crawl back under the rock that she came from and stay out of the media.

    Don't forget the boycott of California Musical Theater and the Music Circus in Sacramento. Their musical director a closet case Mormon named Scott Eckern
    donated $1000 to deny gay people their rights.
    BOYCOTT IS ON BEYATCHES….



  20. 20

    WHO CARES,EVERYONE KNOWS ONLY AMERICANS AND PEOPLE WHO COME TO AMERICA TO BECOME AMERICANIZED ARE WORTH HEARING ABOUT…BECKHAMS..THAT OTHER COUPLE THAT ARE BRITISH AND ANNOYING BUT ATLEAST I'VE HEARD OF THEM B4. THIS SAME PICTURE OF THIS DUMB BRIT NOBODY IS OLD AND BOOOORING.



  21. 21

    Brian whats his name is an idiot for leaving his kids with Kerry, shes a druggie , alcoholic, smoking bipolar mess who thinks plastic surgery is going to make everything better,one day hopefully soon Iceland and MTV will realise we have had enough of this chav with no talent and get rid of her , i can think of thousands of people who deserve the money which she earns from them far more than her

    oh and is she really that stupid to see what Mark really is ? or is that just another way to sell stories to the press

    either way she needs to f** off



  22. 22

    Every time I see that picture, I want log off and never return to this website! I probably will but it's still annoying!

    Who is she She?? Do you have that many British readers that care about her.



  23. 23

    she's only trying to clear her reputation cos her ex - bryan mcfadden - wants to get the custody of their kids.. he'd make a lot better parent anyway with the lovely DELTA

    Re: SookieStackhouse – This is driving me nuts! Just because it's british news doesn't mean it shouldn't be on here. British people come on here as much as Americans!



  25. 25

    Re: SookieStackhouse – hello retard for some reason you seem to think that this website is just for americans????where did you get that impression? is it just because perez is american he should blog or speak to only americans??how stupid are you?just to let you know people other than you read this.just in case you thought it was exclusive to you because your so special and american.

    Kerry Katona is a much poorer trailer trash version of Britney. She has 4 kids; 2 of which are beautiful little girls she had with Brian McFadden (who is now dating Delta Goodrem and should be shamed for not trying to take his kids away from this train wreck and her meat head of a husband) and 2 kids who are totally fugly and clearly have Foetal Alcohol Syndrome. The sad thing is, is I'm not joking. Flat face with small nose and low nasal bridge, and flat philtrum. They have NO hope how sad.



  27. 27
