WHEN JESSICA SIMPSON GIVES UP DRINKING, SO DOES EVERYONE ELSE

Jessica Simpson has given up alcohol for the duration of her pregnancy and it’s NOT EASY because her family loves cocktails. So naturally, she asked everyone around her to give it up too. That includes her fiancee Eric Johnson, who enjoyed drinking vodka with Jessica. Jessica’s father Joe gave up his whiskey and her mother Tina gave up Margaritas – at least when Jessica is around. Eric promised not to drink at all until Jessica can drink again.

Madonna’s alcoholic brother who is living on the streets in Michigan gave an interview to the Daily Mail that’s quite revealing. Madonna, who is said to have a fortune of 650 million dollars, has not forsaken him. Anthony Ciccone, 55, admits that his sister Madonna, 53, has many times offered to pay for him to go to rehab and in fact, she sent him to a Houston clinic for two months but it “didn’t help.” He doesn’t want to stop drinking and feels rehab is not ALWAYS the answer. His alcoholism got him fired from the family winery 18 months ago and he’s been living as a vagrant on skid row with the crackheads ever since. His hard life is revealed in the fact that he looks SO much older than his sister.

She pointed out that if nothing else, he owed it to his daughter. After one last boozy night out at the Roosevelt Hotel on New Year’s Eve, David went straight to rehab, saying he “owed it to his family.”
