Bling 31,076 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 RuPaul's Drag Race and We're Here entertainer Eureka O'Hara has entered rehab for addiction and mental health treatment, the performer revealed Wednesday in an emotional statement. "It was time for me to get my addiction and mental self under control. I made this decision and it's been really hard to be honest about it. I'm embarrassed! These are some of my first steps. I love you all so much!" the 31-year-old tweeted, adding that they've already been in treatment for "over a week" and already feels "clearer and better" than they did before. "Will be back in Vegas mid March! I'm so sorry and love you all!" Eureka, who rose to prominence on seasons 9 and 10 of Drag Race, continued, referencing their role in the RuPaul's Drag Race Live! residency show in Las Vegas. "I'm sorry to myself. Ya know? but really feeling the blessings." The official Drag Race account responded to Eureka's post, writing: "love you, proud of you," and the star's fellow alums from the Emmy-winning reality competition series also voiced their support. "Good for you! Helping yourself is the hardest thing you will ever have to do. Proud of you," responded season 11 finalist and Canada's Drag Race host Brooke Lynn Hytes, while Eureka's All Stars 6 co-competitor Pandora Boxx replied with a virtual "*hug*." Season 9 queen Peppermint encouraged the American Horror Story actor to "take your time" with the process, after season 13's Rosé stressed that there's "nothing to be embarrassed by or ashamed of," and that she's "proud" of Eureka and admires their "courage" and "honesty" throughout recovery — a sentiment further echoed by Eureka's season 10 sister Yuhua Hamasaki, who sent "lots of love and hugs" to her costar. We're Here docuseries co-creator Johnnie Ingram — whom Eureka has worked with across two seasons alongside Drag Race alums Shangela and Bob the Drag Queen — chimed in, tweeting: "We are so proud of you. Stay strong. Love you and We're Here always." https://ew.com/celebrity/drag-race-star-eureka-ohara-rehab/ Say what you will about Eureka, it's incredibly brave of her to come forward with this and I'm so proud of her for being an inspiration.

As a Tennessean as well, alcohol culture is extremely prevalent here and alcoholism is almost glorified. From boozy country songs to Nashville's Broadway honky-tonks and Memphis' Beale Street - it's nothing but alcohol everywhere you look. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
