No it isn’t another pop star with a drug problem, it’s a career move apparently…
Sheryl Crow wants to go to rehab because she thinks it will be good for her career.
The 46-year-old singer - who has just released her sixth album ‘Detours’ - is desperate to duet with “hot” Amy Winehouse, who picked up five Grammy Awards last week while being treated for her drugs addiction. Speaking at an intimate show in London, she said: “I want to collaborate with Amy because she’s really hot and cool right now.
“I know one song ‘Rehab’ was very popular particularly because a lot of young people are in rehab as well. In fact I’m thinking about going. It looks like loads of fun and I know my career will benefit from it.”
O-k then. It seems that Miss Crow appears to have missed the point of rehab…

Sheryl Crow’s son is preventing her from having a sex life. The singer adopted nine-month-old Wyatt in May last year, and says the baby is already dictating who is allowed to sleep over.
She said: “I have been dating. But Wyatt is going to be quite the little gatekeeper when it comes to who gets to stay!”
Sheryl - who split from her cycling champion fiancé Lance Armstrong in February 2006 after a two-year relationship - also revealed she has a very specific idea of the man she wants to spend her life with. She said: “Over the years, I’ve been attracted to people who were much more egocentric. Now I’m ready for someone who’s not so consumed by his own life. I want a partner committed to give and take.”
The 46-year-old star also said she feels her new album, her first record since 2005, will show how much she has grown since beating breast cancer.
She added: “The last three years were a real awakening for me. I’ve felt a fearlessness I’ve never felt before.”

Singer Sheryl Crow has slammed the media for prying into one of the most devastating periods of her life, and the people who bought the tabloid reports for entertainment.
The 45-year-old was diagnosed with breast cancer in February 2006 just days after ending her three-year relationship with fellow cancer sufferer and cyclist Lance Armstrong.
And the star believes the events sparked an ever-present paparazzi frenzy that put a strain on her recovery.
She says, “Having 100 paparazzi outside my gate at all times because of the terrible things that were happening, it really spoke to me about who we are. If this is what makes people want to buy magazines - someone at their absolute lowest - that is a very sad message. I found the whole experience was very difficult. I went from being linked with one of the most famous cancer survivors to then begin diagnosed with cancer.”
The woman has a point…
