Pete Doherty kissed Amy Winehouse goodbye last night after visiting with her immediately following his first gig since he got out of the clink (unsurprisingly on drug charges).

We’re not exactly sure what this picture represents, but it’s something. It’s two of the biggest British celebrities, and they both have very serious and extensively documented drug habits.

Amy got arrested when someone filmed her smoking crack, Pete has filmed himself taking a hit off a chicken-shaped pipe.

It’s some sort of unholy unity, what you are witnessing directly above.

When British tabloids reported the arrest of Amy Winehouse this morning, there was a certain amount of skepticism surrounding the report. It failed to mention why Amy had been arrested, though we could all very well guess.

The story developed to include the tidbit that Amy had, as predicted, been arrested on drug charges. Just not new ones.

Oh, TMZ and your limitless budget that allows you to have people stationed at courthouses to intercept paperwork…bless your shamelessness.

“CSI’s” Gary Dourdan was busted in Palm Springs yesterday on suspicion of possessing heroin, cocaine, ecstasy and prescription drugs. Law enforcement sources tell TMZ the actor was asleep in his car at 5:21 AM when they approached the vehicle and made the bust.

We’re told Dourdan was taken to Palm Springs jail where he posted $5,000 and bailed out.

Heroin, Coke, X, and pills? Damn, Gary, where’s the party?

We told you this was going to happen yesterday, but unlike the many threats of prison those Brits through around like so many bangers in mash, this looks like it’s actually happening.

Bail is expected soon:

A rep from Scotland Yard just told TMZ they have arrested Amy Winehouse on suspicion of assault.

She is currently at the Holborn Police Station. She should be released within the hour.

Wino is accused of allegedly headbutting a guy outside a bar in London earlier this week. The maximum sentence for common assault in Britain is six months in prison.

Mischa Barton, that bitch from The OC whom we’ve been able to ignore up until last December has accepted a plea deal that will not end in jail time.

Once again sending a message to the many young girls in Hollywood that their role models are dangerous drunkards and this is ok (we don’t know if these girls exists, but Paris Hilton insists they do).

Barton was pulled over on December 27th for swerving between lanes and not signaling when she turned, potentially endangering lives. Then, yesterday, she pled No Contest and got three-years unsupervised probation, a three-month alcohol class and a $1700 fine.

This is disgusting and we’re pissed enough not to go a-ranting.

Just think about it and stew with us: if we were to be in the exact same position (and back when we lived in a car-city, we had many friends who were), we’d be jailed no questions.

This is just about crazy enough to be Amy Winehouse looking to score some drugs. Maybe her handlers have put a freeze on her account or something.

Either way, let us take this moment to caution you: Don’t try to sell your baby online, the people who buy children via the internet usually don’t pay. Good luck getting the police to enforce your transaction, is all we’re saying.

The above photo was posted on Craigslist, SplashNews reports, where the poster was asking 500 English pounds for the tot, because – they claimed – they need cash to buy “tweak,” the UK slag for crystal meth.

Someone needs to hook them up with Wino’s peeps, or Pete Doherty. Though Pete would probably take the baby in exchange.

Police are, of course, investigating.

Richie Sambora, member of Bon Jovi and former rehab resident, was arrested on a DUI late yesterday in Laguna Beach. The fuzz noticed him driving erratically and pulled him over, where he opted for the blood test over the blow test and was taken in.

This has been all the rage on the gossip sites today, but we find B-list rockers pretty uninteresting.

Until you throw some nice child endangerment charges into the mix.

That’s right. The guy was not only stupid enough to drink and drive, but stupid enough to do it with his 10-year old daughter Ava in the car with him.

The blood test could be ready within the week, and with the results, the possibility of a thunderstorm’s worth of nasty charges.

The Punisher will see the courtroom, as well as being crowned the first newsworthy DUI of St. Patrick’s Day.

Thomas Jane (Punisher, upcoming Mutant Chronicles) was pulled over for speeding on I-5 and blew a blood alcohol level above .08%. He was then arrested for a full-blown DUI.

He has already been released after sobering up, but I bet he had to go home and laugh about it with wife Patricia Arquette.

Way to ring in St. Patrick’s Day.

At least no one was hurt. For all we know, Thomas Jane drives drunk better than anyone we know.

Looks like our Steve-O on coke YouTube video was the straw that broke the camel’s back. Well, at least it makes all this Steve-O drama a little more logically arranged.

This from AP:

Prankster Steve-O from “Jackass” has been charged with felony possession of cocaine, according to an Internet report.

Celebrity Web site TMZ.com published court documents late Thursday showing the 33-year-old co-star of MTV’s irreverent stunt show was charged on Monday.

The charge stems from a March 3 arrest for investigation of vandalism and possession of a controlled substance at his Hollywood home.

Steve-O, born Stephen Glover, allegedly had a small quantity of drugs on him, police said at the time.

A message left for Glover’s manager, Ben Feigin, was not immediately returned late Thursday.

Oh, Steven Glover, did you get yourself checked into Cedars-Saini to make your upcoming possession case less likely to stick?

It sounds like a really backhanded move, but think about it. Would it be easier to stand in front of a judge and pledge reform if you hadn’t gone to rehab or been hospitalized?

Let’s ask Lindsay Lohan…

We reported yesterday that Steve-O was in Cedars-Sinai after threatening to take his own life and putting cigarettes out on himself.

But, somehow, someone uploaded a new video to his YouTube page that shows him talking incoherently with white powder in one of his nostrils.

Never has juggling lemons been more disturbing, nor the idea that someone who has made all his money by being an idiot in front of a camera all his life finds his mid-day intoxication so entertaining.

We’re not sure what is going on, but we’re kind of frightened.

Jackass Steve-O is hospitalized and on suicide watch at LA’s Cedars-Sinai after he threatened to kill himself. Or so says Star Magazine.

A plethora of unnamed sources were, of course, ready to weigh in:

“Steve started flipping out. He told doctors he wanted to hurt himself badly. He wanted to break every bone in his body one by one.”

“Steve is stabilized on meds at this point. He was also treated for burns on his skin as if he had been putting cigarettes out on his own body.”

Steven’s family claims that he is bi-polar and has been trying to brave it without treatment, leading to this Britney Spears like incarceration. He was arrested earlier in a citizen’s arrest when members of his apartment complex held him down and stopped him from continuing to punch holes in his wall.

Though it is in bad taste, these are the times we live in: this is almost too perfect, and if Ashton Kutcher is trying to Pop Fiction us, he might have just stepped over some sort of line.

But he does have us wondering if this is a joke, even while we fear that Steve-O’s withdrawal from the spotlight into the shadow of insanity might send us seeking idiot stunts elsewhere.

There’s a book coming out called “Pot Culture” that talks to D-List through B-list celebs about their tricks and tips for making the most or of your illegal smokables experience.

Writes Page Six:

Celebrity potheads are sharing their years of stoner experience in Shirley Halperin and Steve Bloom’s new book, “Pot Culture.” In the guide to ganja, Maroon 5’s Adam Levine suggests puffing while listening to the music of Lauryn Hill, Herbie Hancock, Stevie Wonder and Miles Davis, while model Adrianne Curry suggests covering up your weed breath with lip gloss. She said, “I carry orange lip gloss, which covers up the pot smell in my mouth for my husband when I tell him I haven’t been smoking . . For mints, I prefer Icebreakers. They’re really strong and burn your tongue, but they cover the smell up in two seconds.” Jonah Hill, the stoner star of “Knocked Up” and “Superbad,” demonstrates how to get high by smoking out of an apple, and Whitestarr burn-out Cisco Adler shows the kids at home how to put together a gravity bong. Other celebs who dish on their herb habits: Melissa Etheridge, Kal Penn, Rob Thomas and - of course - Steve-O.

While everyone is dishing out pot advice, allow us to put in our two cents. We at the B&U are always on the sober up-and-up, but with the inclusion of Steve-O in the book, we’re pretty sure people are just taking advice where they can get it.

Ours is: fuck butter, use oil.

If you don’t know what we’re talking about, this site might be useful.

Ashlee Simpson was on a morning show broadcast in Washington D.C. She was babbling, giggling and forgetful, leading some to believe that she was either high or drunk on air. Her rep denies it, but we believe. Pete Wentz is a bad influence.

Nothing like waking up to a weird Pete Doherty video in your mailbox that shows him smoking some sort of chicken pipe.

Actually, there is something like it. Namely that one video of Amy Winehouse smoking crack from a few weeks back.

But if there’s one thing we can watch all day it’s scandalous videos of British musicians sucking cocks and doing drugs.
