Realizing that you have an addiction can be one of the scariest experiences in a person’s life. Not only will it seem like you’re whole world is falling apart right before your eyes, but looking forward to a future of sobriety seems next to impossible in that moment of time. Luckily, there are a number of top-notch rehab facilities in the United States, just waiting to help you overcome your addiction.
Celebrities have become trendsetters in almost every industry. From clothing and restaurants to vehicles and homes, celebrities define what’s cool from year to year and drug rehab facilities are no different.
Here are our picks for the top 5 celebrity rehab centers in the United States:
1. Promises Treatment Center. Temporary home of pop star Britney Spears, this Oceanside drug and alcohol treatment facility has become one of the most popular in the world. Located in Malibu, California, this posh getaway has also housed other popular celebs like Robert Downy Jr., Diana Ross and Ben Affleck. The elaborate center promises to deliver results through holistic healing and will only run you a whopping $8,855 a week.
2. The Betty Ford Clinic. Established by First Lady, Betty Ford, the rehab center of the same name is one of the most intriguing and stimulating facilities in North America. Also located in California, this world renowned clinic has been home to high profile celebrities like Keith Urban, Ozzy Osbourne and Chevy Chase. Individuals planning to get help may find The Betty Ford Clinic slightly more affordable at only $6,000 for a 30-day stay.
3. Cirque Lodge. The breathtaking mountain view from Cirque Lodge rehab facility in Utah is enough to promote healing in anyone. Equipped with luxury saunas, gyms, and fireplaces this rehabilitation center makes visitors feel at-home while getting help. Unfortunately, if you don’t have an overflowing bank account, you probably won’t be able to afford this luxury retreat. A 30-day stay will run you nearly $26,000 – a price tag reasonable for wealthy celebrities like Mary-Kate Olsen, Lindsay Lohan, Eva Mendes and Kirsten Dunst.
4. Passages Rehab Facility. Not quite a as popular as Promises or Betty Ford (yet), Passages rehab facility promises to be one of the most popular facilities of the future. Designed with marble floors, massage rooms, ocean views and a replica of the Statue of Liberty on the lawn, this center is sure to promote healing in troubled individuals. A 30-day stay will cost you a shocking $39,500, but price wasn’t a factor for past guests like David Hasselhoff, Andy Dick, Polly Shore and Stephen Baldwin.
5. Caron Foundation. Located in Wernersville Pennsylvania, the Caron Foundation is a non-profit addition facility to help adults and adolescents who are addicted to drugs and/or alcohol. A one-month stay at this luxurious center will cost about $24,000. Famous faces found at Caron have included Miss USA Tara Conner, Stephen Tyler (lead singer of the band Aerosmith) and Liza Minneli.

Remember in the Nutty Professor how Edie Murphy managed to lose all that weight all with the help of a magic potion? I’m not going to give you a magic potion because it will most likely be harmful to your health and very costly. I am going to give you a few pointers though on how to achieve extreme celebrity weight loss.
Celebrities go RAW
Eat raw foods for 30 days. The raw diet was introduced on the Tyra Banks show and Woody Harrison eats 100% raw foods. Not only will you get an incredible abundance of energy but your body will thank you in the long run. By raw I don’t mean raw fish, meat or milk. I’m talking about raw uncooked foods such as mangoes, watermelon, broccoli, spinach, raw cashews…etc. There are more nutrients in non-cooked foods and your body has an easier time digesting it. If you’re confused on what to eat it’s easy to blend a good mix of leafy greens, fruit, and nuts into a power smoothie. Or toss a quick salad with the same ingredients.
By now you might be ready to stop reading…but I promise you there is another way to lose weight quickly and easily, with the help of the Online Diet Generator.
Celebrities Turn to the Online Diet Generator to Lose Weight
There is a Online Diet Generator that automatically generates meals for you that are structured to help anyone lose weight. You have many choices of foods to pick from and with a few clicks the software creates a customizable meal plan that is designed to help you burn fat fast. The software is very simple to use and in less than a few minutes you will have a 2 week diet plan created especially for you. Did I mention that portions are unlimited every meal under this Diet Plan. People on this diet lose inches all over, and in less than two weeks people have reported anywhere from 5-10 pounds of weight loss.
Shake What Your Mamma Gave Ya
Move your body if you want to achieve extreme celebrity weight loss. This doesn’t have to be drastic gym training. Even walking 4 times a week for a minimum of 30 minutes can help you achieve extreme celebrity weight loss! Go hiking, try yoga, play tennis, go golfing… anything! Our TV, computer oriented lifestyles and unhealthy and will eventually be the death of us.
My last tip if you want to achieve extreme celebrity weight loss is to motivate yourself. Celebrities have new movies, advertisements and events to lose weight for. Find a good reason to lose weight that will push you forward you every day.

The public’s voice is loudly heard during national elections. It is the time when everyone is in equal footing with a single vote in choosing the right candidates who should run the government. Whether you are rich or poor, it doesn’t really matter. You only have one ballot that you need to fill out: nothing more, nothing less.
Many times we hear stories of gimmickry and some popularity endorsements involving people in showbiz industry during electoral campaigns and other forums. Do they really help in swaying the people’s choice of who they should vote for? Or are they simply for aesthetics purposes making the selection process among political contenders entertaining? Does their presence have an impact at all?
Certainly, credibility of the celebrities who endorse a candidate is at stake. However, the candidate’s popularity in terms of his appeal and performance matters. A politician should have a clear platform to begin with as he tries to persuade the voting public to support him. Celebrities’ appeal may influence the voter’s decision but I believe the voters nowadays are becoming more intelligent in choosing the more deserving candidates.
Although celebrities’ endorsements help, the public needs to be more critical about the candidates’ contributions or platforms. Celebrities are merely for promotions and never the ones you are voting for. This should be clear to everyone.
If you made a wrong choice in selecting a candidate, don’t blame the celebrities. Blame yourself. Support the deserving candidates with good qualifications and not merely because you like the celebrities endorsing them.
The reminder “vote wisely” is not just an adage. It is a strong appeal to the voters to cautiously think of who you should select in the elections. Never be blinded by simple popularity and gimmicky. In the long-run, it is you who will benefit from the projects of the candidates who will win. Think of your future as citizens of your country. Always remember that an election is not a joke. It is a national event that needs to be pondered on.
