Celebrity Rehab Star Chyna Rushed to Hospital
Troubled Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew star and former WWF wrestler Chyna aka Joan Marie Laurer celebrated her birthday on Saturday and it got out of hand. An ambulance was called to her Burbank residence around 5:00 AM when friends say the alcohol and pills that she was on weren’t mixing well.
TMZ is reporting that her friends found her with cuts on her arms and completely passed out so they called 911. The doctors are reportedly worried about her mental state, though it is unclear if they are considering this an attempted suicide.
When Chyna was contacted by TMZ at the hospital she said, “All I really want is a hamburger and fries right now.”
Dealing with her addiction issues has not gone well for Chyna. Hopefully this will spur those around her to take action and get her to a care facility that will best fit her needs.

Everybody needs to take a chill pill. CHYNA has just finished a movie and a video shoot (both releasing early 2009.)
She was prescribed new medication a couple of weeks ago and the combination of the new medicine and alcohol was not good. This was not a problem during the video shoot or the movie shoot just recently finished.
In her excitement to celebrate a great video shoot and her birthday which started at midnight Friday night she made an unfortunate decision forgetting about the warning regarding the new medicine. She blacked out and fell into the mirrored closet doors which broke and caused some minor cuts and bruises. Admittedly, when she fell it was scary and things looked worse than it was to us. She was released by the doctor’s, from the er room, without ever being admitted into the hospital.
As for her wanting her hamburger and fries, TMZ contacted her on her cell phone while she was waiting for her friends to get back from MOE’S with her avocado, mushroom, bacon and cheese burger(swiss since someone out there is wondering). None of us had eaten since dinner the night before and that was the only thing on anyone’s mind.
CHYNA IS OK! Just a little embarrassed. Look for CHYNA in Hybrid Culture Recording Artist “LOVECHILD’s” new video releasing early ‘09.”
Official press release from: Jeff Bauer of Mad Dad Promotions
As reported early Saturday morning Chyna was taken to St. Joseph’s Hospital in Burbank, Ca.
Upon finishing the video shoot for Lovechild’s new single, Chyna and a couple of friends including myself, Jeff Bauer AD on the Lovechild shoot, had a few drinks to celebrate her birthday and the end of a great shoot.
Unfortunately, newly prescribed medication she is taking had a very adverse effect combined with the alcohol and Chyna blacked out and fell into her mirrored closet doors. She received minor cuts on her arms and legs.
She spent half the day Saturday at St. Joseph’s emergency and was released by the doctors without being admitted to the hospital.
Chyna is doing fine if not a little embarrassed about forgetting she was on this new medication. The family at Hybrid Culture Entertainment is with her.
Chyna is a delight on the set and we at Hybrid Culture welcome her anytime she is willing to be involved in one of our productions.
As for her wanting her hamburger and fries, TMZ contacted her on her cell phone while she was waiting for her friends to get back from MOE’S with her avocado, mushroom, bacon and cheese burger (swiss since someone out there is wondering).
