National Enquirer Blind Item

WHICH legendary Grammy winner, after years of sobriety, is back on drugs?

This vocal powerhouse, now in her late 50s, is seriously struggling and refusing to check into a treatment center.

(Hint: It’s NOT Whitney.)

Dianne Warwyck? Natalie Cole? That would be truly sad, for Natalie had it hard with the abusive ex-husband.

Chaka Khan

i was going to say Chaka Khan too. she's the right age but idk if she was ever into drugs.

i also like the natalie cole guess but she's 61. i guess it depends how accurate the age is. dionne warwick I think is too old.

Natalie Cole has a well known drug past and I believe she won a Grammy for the albums of duets with her fathers recordings. Sad if this is her.

I hear Chaka Khan's concerts lately have been hot messes. Forgotten lyrics, stumbling, the works.

Cheryl said...

Chaka Khan recently got custody of her granddaughter because of her son's drug abuse. They all live with her and custody is to be shared with her sister. I heard that the son was charged with murder a few years back. Seems strange.

Chaka Khan was addicted to heroin and cocaine in the 90's. She is the right age and I can't think of anyone else who fits.

I read an article where Chaka admitted to drug use, but I thought was she was just a big pot head. I love her so I really hope it's not her, but it certainly points in her direction.

Isn't Chaka a $cientologist?

What about Stevie Nicks? I need to Google how old she is...

M. said...

Nicks is 63, not her.

I thought maybe Ann Wilson of Heart, but she's 61. What about Anita Baker? didn't she have drug problems?

Natalie Cole - Saw her on RHNYC and she looked awful. I know she had health problems/hepatitis? so attributed it to that but maybe drugs instead? She was all sweaty and out of breath/seemed fragile - kind of Whitney-esque now that I think of it...

Rita said...

Blondegossip - never watch those shows, but if you saw her that way, then it is truly sad.

Saw an interview with Natalie a few years back, and yes, she has some form of Hepatitis that she caught from either admitted needle sharing or prostitution, which she had admitted her then husband (or boyfriend?) was forcing her into. She got clean, and healthy and was dealing wither the hep accordingly.

So sad if this blind is about her.

Stevie's in her 60s and very clearly clean.

Among other health issues, I think Natalie got a kidney transplant a few years ago? Poor girl, I'm wondering if she's having a physical setback and observers are mistaking it for drug use?

Sadly the only one who fits age wise is Chaka. :(

Pat Benatar (hope not)

Audrey said...

The chick who sang Chuck E's in Love...

Audrey said...

Rickie Lee Jones is her name and she is in the right age group.

Henriette said...

Pat Benatar? Are you serious? She has never been into drugs and doesn't even drink.

Bubbles said...

Natalie Cole is in her 60's, not her.

Me said...

Chaka - both her and Whitney did versions of "I'm Every Woman".
