What??? Ahhh!!

We were so, so, SO hoping that Pete Doherty's most recent rehab stay would be the one that finally got him off of all those terrible drugs he's been poisoning his body with throughout the years. Unfortunately, it was just another misadventure!

The rock star jetted off to a rehabilitation center in Chiang Mai, Thailand at the end of June, but has been kicked out for being a "disruptive influence" on other patients.

Alastair Mordey, the director of the facility, called Pete's booting an "amicable" parting and hopes "some of the things he has learnt here will help him in the future."

So do we.

Ryan Gosling is back in El Lay after completing his second collaboration with Drive director Nicholas Winding Refn in Thailand and visiting MaMa Gos in Canada.

We're glad to see him too because he's been keeping himself busy by hitting the gym!

Smoking is bad.

If you don't want kids to do it, and can give them any number of reasons why, then why don't you take your own advice?

Ahh! Our poor Ryan Gosling! Who would do such a thing?

New images of the seksi actor's next collaboration with Drive director Nicolas Winding Refn have been released and RyGos looks a little beaten up.

This must be the aftermath of the scene we spotted him filming in Thailand earlier this year, in which his face gets beaten to a bloody pulp.

Don't worry though, he doesn't take the beating lying down. Much like his character in Drive, Gosling's character in Only God Forgives is a lethal weapon.

Get ready to see more H&M s around the world!

In addition to launching a new retail chain, the fast fashion retailer announced on Monday they're expanding into the Latin America market and they're doing it BIG.

The first store is scheduled to open in the fall at Mexico City's Centro Santa Fe mall and will be the largest H&M in the world.

Dayum. That's a lot of clothes!

The Swedish chain also plans to expand their presence in Bulgaria, Thailand and Indonesia in 2012, but on a smaller scale.

As they should!

It should have never happened in the first place, though!

KFC Thailand has had to do some damage control and apologize for posting a Facebook message that urged people to hurry up and order a bucket of chicken… during Wednesday's tsunami scare!

So basically as people were being told to evacuate from beaches, the company went ahead and said this:

"Let's hurry home and follow the earthquake news. And don't forget to order your favorite KFC menu."

That's extremely insensitive! Whoever thought that was a good idea — and then the person who gave permission to post it — should be fired. That's a no-brainer.

More than 8,000 people in Thailand died in the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami (230,000 in Indonesia), so you can see why people are so upset!
