Did Tom Cruise's Scientology pal derail Keith Urban's sobriety?

Maybe I'm overthinking this, but the news that Beck (one of Tom Cruise's Scientology buddies) was plying Keith Urban with champagne, despite it being common knowledge that Urban was a recovering drug and alcohol abuser, is a little suspicious. At the very least, Beck is a shitty friend for taking the alcoholic Urban drinking. At worst, he may have helped Tom Cruise play a nasty trick on his ex-wife. Either way, I hope I don't get sued for wondering about this.

That's a very good observation. I didn't know Beck did that, but now that you've put the suspicion in my mind...it makes perfect sense. Keith hasn't had any slip-ups (that we know of) up until now. I just wish Keith the best of luck! I know he can beat this and come out on top!!

Stop blaming Keith's drinking on Beck. Did Beck hold a gun to his head! Get real

For arrested-development (the psychosis, not the show) celebrities, high school never ends, does it?

We here in Nashville have ignored Keith and Nicole as much as possible. The running joke for the last few weeks was that I was among the remaining five people in Nashville who hasn't been cut in line by the two love birds.

And that place from article- Bar 23? What a freaking joke. Talk about a pathetic place to jump off the wagon. So much for injecting some style in to Nashville's nightlife.

California can keep 'em. Keith will be closer to the clinic that way.
