I've said it before and I will say it again: journalists tend to exploit Stevie's past rock behaviors in ways that border on sexism and even linguistic violence. It makes me very uncomfortable. It appears to pander to the lowest common denominator in the audience, people (ie--mainly men) who would say, "Isn't Stevie a washed up this or that who used to do coke up her bum?" Its horrible. And it's unfair. The Mac men did as much if not more drugs than she, but no one is "reporting' on their usage.
In general, Christine is immune to such stories but that is because her image is so anti-rock anyway. Her drinking is mentioned, but never in a salacious way. Even now, when she admits to cocaine usage (more clearly and directly than ever before) it is all very subdued.
