Whitney Houston Checks Back Into Rehab

The singer, who has struggled with addiction for years, is undergoing treatment in an outpatient program for drug and alcohol treatment, according to a story by christina Everett at nydailynews.com.

In 2004, Houston entered rehab for substance abuse. Before admitting her problems, she had dismissed rumors of her drug use in a now-infamous sitdown interview with Diane Sawyer.

However, her 2010 tour overseas was plagued with problems.
