Fatboy Slim enters rehab
Surprised I even heard this on the radio this morning on the way to work (on a local morning radio show, no less- so shocked- in America??). Now dont we wish we could watch this on intervention?

Fatboy Slim has been admitted to rehab for alcohol addiction.
The DJ, who lives on Hove seafront with his radio presenter wife Zoe Ball and son Woody, 7, voluntarily checked himself into a private clinic on Monday days after returning from a tour in Australia.
His manager Garry Blackburn said the musician, real name Norman Cook, had realised it was time to tackle a drinking problem that had developed over some time.
He said: "He has gone in voluntarily to deal with alcoholism. He has decided it is time to go and sort his drink problem out."
Mr Blackburn said Cook's latest Brighton beach concert, earmarked for the first weekend of September, was still expected to go ahead.
Cook, 45, has never made a secret of living a drink-fuelled party lifestyle as he travelled the world staging big shows.
He once said: "I never seem to get tired of getting drunk. I've tried going on stage sober and it wasn't much fun. It takes a lot of alcohol to stop me thinking "What are you doing whirling that towel above your head?"."
The location of the clinic and the length of Cook's stay has been kept secret. Many addiction treatments recommend a supervised four week "drying out" period.
He said Cook still planned to appear at his next scheduled performance at the Snowbombing festival in the Alpine resort of Mayhofen in Austria on April 3.
Zoe Ball told friends yesterday she was incredibly proud of her husband for taking the step, loved him dearly and supported him 100%.

Hopefully he recovers well.
And if we are lucky he will come out of rehab and do a huge world tour and come to Toronto...
