BLIND ITEM DELUXE :

ROCK BOTTOM:

This black female celebrity has a drug history that she has briefly spoken about but she seemed to conquer her demons because she worked in a few back to back projects. Sadly, she is back on drugs, this time, it's heroin. She and her boyfriend, who was also famous briefly (and who is a part of a musical family) are crack house regulars. He smokes crack, while she shoots up. She got introduced to heroin through her boyfriend's brother (also well known and famous) who also shoots up.

Instead of going to auditions, her whole day is spent, getting enough money together by begging, borrowing or stealing to cop heroin and crack.

A great opportunity came her way but she showed up under the influence of heroin and vicadin. She was so high, she was nodding off as chills raked her body and track marks covered her left arm. She was asked to leave and not to return. This gig would have paid her six figures a month.

This once attractive woman was arrested (a few months ago) with her boyfriend briefly when a crack house was raided but she was released shortly afterwards. It was a bit more complicated for the boyfriend because it may have been a violation. This didn't make the news because white cops were the arresting officers and the couple were unrecognizable due to drug use and they "aren't big name stars" outside the black community.

Don't be surprised if this woman starts turning tricks for drug money because she is seriously "chasing the dragon."

On another board the answer was Nona Gaye and Chico Debarge.

Nona was fired from Law and Order.

Too bad. I was looking forward to seeing her on Law & Order. It does sound like a DeBarge tho.
