Celebrities Are Exhausting the Exhaustion Excuse

 

I'm soooooo tired... of writing about celebrities suffering from exhaustion. Do you hear me Amy Winehouse? Dave Chappelle? Lindsay Lohan? Mariah Carey? Eminem? And every other star who's used that very lame excuse? Yes, it is a medical condition (thanks, Slate!), but I know people who are really busy -- raising kids, juggling multiple jobs or training for friggin marathons -- but they don't require a doctor's care, hospital stay or press release.

Wino is the latest person to lay it on us. People.com reports that singer has been hospitalized with "severe exhaustion" and has been told to rest. So I guess we should ignore all the rumors about her hard-partying ways. And the fact that her hit song is called "Rehab" and in it she croons: "They tried to make me go to rehab and I said no, no, no." I won't even start on the alleged cutting. But reps never lie, so if they say it's exhaustion... it must totally be exhaustion. I just hope she gets the help she needs while she's there... and that maybe she can squeeze in a trip to the dentist in while she's resting up -- and trim that hair.
