Although Disney was able to look past Keith Richards' drug face long enough to invite him back to the 'Pirates' franchise for 'Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides,' a new book penned by The Rolling Stones guitarist could prove to be too much for the family-friendly empire.
Richards' new autobiography, 'Life,' presents the musician's "trademark disarming honesty ... [bringing] ... us the story of a life we have all longed to know more of, unfettered, fearless, and true." In other words, he explains how the hell he survived taking all those drugs. If you're like most people, you probably just assumed his body was being preserved by the mass amounts of chemicals he ingested. Richards, however, explains that the secret was quality over quantity: "It's not only the high quality of drugs I had that I attribute my survival to. I was very meticulous about how much I took. I'd never put more in to get a little higher."
Drudge Report tells us that an entertainment insider has suggested "they very well could end up cutting Keith out of the new movie over this."
So Disney's just now figuring out that Keith Richards has done drugs? I thought these people were supposed to be smart.

Ever notice he's actually started looking younger since he kicked heroin in the late 80's?
Or rather he's grown into his premature old age, which is more than I can say for Mick.
(That said, with Woody on the wagon, time for a Rick Rubin-produced Glimmer Twins acoustic album. Just sayin'.)
