Blake Fielder Mug Shot
Blake Fielder and Amy Whinehouse

Amy Winehouse’s dumbass husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, was sent back to prison yesterday after he failed a drug test in rehab, but not before he ran to her hospital bedside where she has been since collapsing ten days ago. Wanna take a guess what happened next? Just a little advice, if you have food in your mouth, I’d suggest spitting it out. The Sun reports:

“SINGER AMY WINEHOUSE gave junkie hubby BLAKE FIELDER-CIVIL a “farewell bonk” in hospital before he returned to jail, pals said last night. The Sun revealed yesterday that Fielder-Civil, 26, dashed to the ailing star’s bedside on Tuesday night after failing a drug test in rehab. And last night a source said he persuaded her reluctant inner-circle to give him one hour alone with her on his final night of freedom. He told Amy, 25, how sexy she looked — and unlike the line from her hit Rehab, she could not say “No, no, no”. The source added: “It was obvious what went on.” Fielder-Civil then left the London Clinic and handed himself in to cops in Shoreditch, East London. He is likely to continue his 27-month sentence for assault and trial-fixing after breaking the terms of his early release.”

Dear God, I’m not even kidding when I say I’d rather watch my dad wife swap with a grizzly bear than picture these two crackheads have sex. I know you can’t see it, but I’m about to stab this knife in my mind’s eye right now. Right now I tell you!

Richie Sambora MUG

Richie Sambora was arrested on a DUI charge in Laguna Beach, Calif., Tuesday night after he was pulled over with his girlfriend and 10-year-old daughter in the car.

The Bon Jovi guitarist was stopped around 10:52 p.m. after police said they spotted him weaving on the road, Laguna Beach Police Sgt. Jason Kravetz tells PEOPLE. Sambora was driving a Hummer and was with his girlfriend, daughter Ava (whose mother is ex-wife Heather Locklear) and another unidentified juvenile girl.

Sambora was given a blood alcohol test – “He smelled of alcohol,” Kravetz says – and he was “quiet and cooperative and he didn’t cause any problems,” he added.

Sambora was later released from custody on his own recognizance at about 4 a.m. He is scheduled to appear in court for arraignment on May 7.

“At this point there’s no indication of drugs,” Kravetz told TMZ.com, which first reported the arrest.

A rep for Sambora had no immediate comment.

A friend who knows Sambora and Locklear tells PEOPLE the news of the musician’s arrest is “shocking.”

The friend, who hasn’t spoken to Sambora since the incident, said the fact that his daughter, Ava, was also in the car is “almost too much to believe. He adores her and is very protective her. All I can think is that he made a stupid miscalculation.”

In June 2007, Sambora entered a treatment facility. “I was just drinking too much and I needed to get my life together,” he said during a Today show appearance. “I’m still in therapy and stuff like that, but it’s good. I’m great. I feel fine.”

Last year was a difficult one for the musician, 48. He and actress Denise Richards broke up after dating for about a year. In April, his divorce from Locklear was finalized and that same month, his father died of lung cancer.

As for Sambora’s band obligations, his next tour date with Bon Jovi was slated for Monday in Denver.

The arrest came just hours after Wayne (real name: Dwayne Michael Carter Jr.) made what he labeled his Big Apple debut with a raucous show at the Beacon Theatre. A New York Police Department spokesperson said that Wayne’s tour bus was pulled over at around 11:30 p.m. After searching the vehicle, police arrested the rapper for criminal possession of a weapon — a .40 caliber pistol — and another man on the bus for criminal possession of marijuana. Police identified the man charged with drug possession as Brooklyn native Derrick Lawrence. It was unknown at press time what his relationship is to the rapper. Both men were awaiting an appearance before a judge at press time. According to a source close to Wayne, the rapper has a permit for the gun.

During his show on Sunday night — which featured a heavy police presence — Wayne made comments from the stage about being hassled by police prior to his set, and threatened not to perform in New York again.
