A rapper getting arrested isn’t exactly shocking. The police just love arresting rappers don’t they? Rock stars weirdly get off the hook in such matters, whereas the hip hop community constantly has representatives in the clink.

The latest member of the rap world to have their collar felt by the law is Big Boi, who is one half of the most excellent Outkast.

Alas, this isn’t a firearms charge (Outkast aren’t really a band with a visible arsenal are they?), but rather, a drug bust. So what drugs has Big Boi been running? COCK DROPS! That’s right, sniffer dogs at customs snagged Big Boi’s stash as he left a cruise ship on Sunday afternoon, finding a bunch of tablets that will help the rap superstar to get an erection. How frightfully embarrassing.

Of course, Big Boi (or should that be Big-But-Limp-Boi now?) had some proper drugs about his person, notably, a load of Es and MDMA powder, but we’re choosing to focus on the fact he had a load of Viagra because we’re spiteful.

Miami-Dade County Corrections Department charged Big Boi with three counts of possession of a controlled substance and one count of possession.

And what does a big, tough rapper say when caught with a haul of drugs? Well, BB’s attorney – Daniel Kane – is going to go adopt the whole ‘He was holding them for a friend’ line, which we’ve all done when our mothers have found our cigarettes in our school blazers.

Kane says:

“A small amount of contraband was found in the collective luggage. I am confident when the entire facts are aired Big Boi will be completely exonerated.”

Or, in English, that means Big Boi will probably throw a load of money at a friend to say that the drugs were theirs. Well, you would if you had the dough, right?

Andre 3000 meanwhile, doesn’t strike us as the kind of man who has to rely on sex pills to get his kicks, right? He is for reaaaal (HOOO).

Yesterday brought the news that Amy Winehouse had decided to take a stroll to the hospital.

It wasn’t because she finally realised she was slowly destroying her insides, it was simply down to having a crazy reaction to the medication slowly digesting in her stomach.

Many people have placed bets on her dying before the end of the year due to her body slowly fading away and her apparent ability to always be pictured with a ciggie and a can of Superbrew.

Yesterday saw a couple of people prematurely attempting to cash in that betting slip, but they were wrong to do so – those good people at the NHS managed to fix her up with some sticky tape and drinks straws.

It’s now surfaced that she’s returned to hospital and her ever-suffering father Mitch has told us what caused her freakout. It was indeed an issue with drugs, but not the good kind. Oh no!

Mitch claims that Amy’s drink had been spiked with ecstasy, causing the young crooner to react violently. It has to be said, hecklerspray loves hearing that excuse from pretty much every person who is sick after a weekends drinking (why do you think Stu is off?). Of course the seventeen pints of lager and no food didn’t make you sick. It was a little white tablet that made you look the village idiot. Again.

But did an ecstasy tablet really cause Amy Winehouse to go in to relapse and bring her a bit closer to death? We all have to remember that she eats drugs like Smarties and drinks heroin like Ribena, so surely this wouldn’t have bothered her? If anything, her body was rejecting the drug because it wasn’t up to the usual standard of getting her wasted and reducing her to walking around in her pants.

Normally when Winehouse does get off her tits on pills, crack, heroin or anything else she can wrap her lips around, she starts screeching for dear hubby Blake. It will probably turn out that this time her harpyish screams have been curbed by Blake appearing in her dreams, telling her to battle on. Or something like that. She’s sure to make up some crap, so long as it isn’t straightforward or normal.

A source told the pack of journalists permanently outside Amy Winehouse’s (wine)house:

“Mitch is furious. He’s certain someone put E in Amy’s drink – and he’s determined to get to the bottom of it. He is convinced that one of her hangers-on was responsible and he’s waiting for a toxicology report to show what caused her to have a fit.”

This is just another story in the long line of drug related problems for Winehouse. For her it’s just becoming more like real life, and if anything we want to see another celebrity from the world of music flip out like a crazy fool on drugs. Remember the moon face man from Keane? He tripped off his man tits on the old white powder, apparently, but still managed to remain totally dull.

We hope Dougie from McFly is a secret glue sniffer, or at least a fan of poppers. He’s in a band, so they must have done something extreme apart from give their album away in the Sunday Mail. Or is that classed as hard for them?
