When we heard NASCAR driver Jeremy Mayfield tested positive for methamphetamines again, it really didn’t come as much of a surprise. After all, Mayfield’s latest arrest only goes to reinforce the stereotype that NASCAR is a sport filled with white trash tweak-heads who have a problem with speeding. We keeeeed!
Mayfield is hardly the first celebrity to fall victim to the rural bathtub drug. The truth is, deep, deep down, celebrities are ordinary people—except they have way more money for drugs, way more free time for drugs, and way more get out of jail free cards than the average Joe does when it comes to drugs. Don’t believe us? Read on to see 10 celebs who love (or have loved) their crank, regardless of what Johnny Law has to say about it…

“Amy Winehouse by Mikey Georgeson
When it comes to depicting some of the world’s biggest stars, things can get ugly. In a new exhibit called “Remember My Name,” which opened last week at London’s massive 6,000 square foot Sartorial Contemporary Art Gallery, a diverse group of artists painted well-known celebrities in some decidedly unusual ways.
Artists like Sarah Doyle, Jasper Joffe, Mikey Georgeson and Cathy Lomax profiled celebrity culture at it’s worst for the show. Images of everyone from Angelina Jolie to Michael Jackson get subverted, while artist Matt Humphrey immortalizes Kurt Cobain by re-imagining his suicide gun. See more of “Remember My Name,” which runs through November 11th, below…

Fresh off catching another charge for alleged possession of a controlled drug, it seems as though Amy Winehouse will never get her act together. Sure, she’s crazy talented (emphasis on the crazy), but the rehab-refusing pop-star is more known for ratty hair, a coke-stained nose and sporadic missing teeth than her hit songs.
We will give Wino credit: she did look semi-bangable performing via satellite at the Grammy's. But for the most part, a glimpse of her mug could cause retina damage. In honor of Amy's latest run in with the law, we rounded up a gallery of her 5 worst looks (after the jump). We hope you're not eating.
