Well look who appears to be getting her life together:
Actress Maia Campbell–who was last seen on a scary and sad crack binge looking a complete wreck–was very recently spotted on Melrose Ave. Her family put out a statement saying they are putting her in a rehab facility to get help. And it looks like it’s working.
According to photographer Seven, Maia was “looking good and very happy and upbeat.” There was no sign of her being high, and she was carrying a bag of Miss Jessie’s hair care products. She looked to be fully on the road to recovery with the drug abuse as a thing of the past. Normally, she is unwilling to take pictures, but she was more than cooperative and happy to do so this time around. The photog also says “she smelled good.” Well that’s always a good sign.
Welcome back Maia! We wish her the best in her recovery….

Good for her! I’m currently reading her late mother’s book “72 Hour Hold” and was wondering how Maia was doing. I’m glad to see that she’s doing well.
Tue, February 9, 2010 9:52 AM
I’m soooo happy that Mia is doing well. The road to recovery is a tough one but I hope she sees the light at the end of the tunnel.
Tue, February 9, 2010 9:54 AM
BTW Mia’s skin is absolutely flawless. I hope she continues to go to rehab meetings to help her cope. I’m pulling for her to return to TV and movies!

Tue, February 9, 2010 10:06 AM
God bless Maia. I hope she continue her treatment, because for a minute it was looking really scary I thought she was going to wind up like Anna Nichole.
Tue, February 9, 2010 10:07 AM

Tue, February 9, 2010 10:32 AM
Man this is so awesome! I was messed up the whole day when I saw that last video of her strung out. She looks great and I’m ecstatic that’s she’s doing so well. *getting a little misty eyed*
Tue, February 9, 2010 10:32 AM
hurrayyy i’m so glad she’s getting better! that video was really sad, i’m glad that wasn’t the end for her.
Tue, February 9, 2010 10:38 AM
Thanks for the update, I was wondering how she was doing. I wish her all the best!!
Tue, February 9, 2010 10:38 AM
God is good all the time!
Tue, February 9, 2010 10:41 AM
OMG whatever. Everybody was acting a damn fool over this video. To me it looked she checked some ni66as that was tryin to clown her and she clowned they azzes back.
Tue, February 9, 2010 10:43 AM
Awww, good 4 her..all I remember is her glow in “sweet lady”..I was about to sing..hehe..
Tue, February 9, 2010 11:04 AM
Go Maia!!!! I was thinking about her the other day too. And I am also reading 72 hold if I can ever get a free moment in to keep reading it. She looks great and I really hope she does it this time. Even after all those drugs and thugs she cam out on top and looks flawless! You betta work Ms Thang!
Tue, February 9, 2010 11:05 AM
Good for her!! She needs to get out of LA and fast!!
Tue, February 9, 2010 11:30 AM
Maia looks great. I’m really happy for her, and I’m happy to read so many positive comments as well.
Tue, February 9, 2010 11:37 AM
Good for her!! hope she can start working again too
Tue, February 9, 2010 11:41 AM
congratulations to her. Struggling with a mental disease and on top of that an addiction to hard substance like crack cocaine is not a walk in the park. I hope she keeps up with her rehab and takes her medication for her mental disorder cause if she slips, then she is back to square one. Again God bless her in all her endeavors to get better
Tue, February 9, 2010 11:57 AM
Go head Maia! She look’s healthy like she put on a few pounds. I hope she can get back on track. She is one beautiful girl.
Tue, February 9, 2010 12:09 PM
She looks great, but so soon? She needs to be watched over 24/7, I would hate to see her relapse.
Tue, February 9, 2010 12:16 PM
Prayer works I hope she says clen and sober!! I use 2 LOVE HER on In The House!!! She was so pretty 2 me that video of her was so disturbing…I hope she stays on the road to a FULL RECOVERY!
Tue, February 9, 2010 12:17 PM
It’s a long road, and she is brave enough to take the most important step: THE FIRST ONE. May God continue to bless and revive her in spirit, heart and soul as she finds healing in every area of her life. AMEN!
Tue, February 9, 2010 12:25 PM
Yes! I love positivity and this is really an inspiration to others dealing with both mental illness and drug addiction. Prayer changes things and I hope we all continue to pray for her and the millions like her to get the help they need to sustain recovery. God Bless Maia!
Tue, February 9, 2010 12:31 PM
Praise God!!
Tue, February 9, 2010 12:50 PM
Never heard of her, but find it funny that people would laugh at crackheads all their teenage years and then decide to put a crack pipe to their own lips and expect a different result! Have lots of family members on the pipe and seems it is a hard thing to really kick forever. God bless her if she can do it!
Tue, February 9, 2010 1:07 PM
Yay!! Maia is back and looking beautiful. Please, get back in the game and kill ‘em girl!
Tue, February 9, 2010 1:12 PM
I’m Happy to see her doing well i was looking forward to see her again i hope it continues
Tue, February 9, 2010 1:19 PM
She looks a whole lot better!! I’m so happy she is doing well!
Tue, February 9, 2010 1:24 PM
I’m happy for her and pray that she gets back on track. I was thinking about her the other day when I saw a number of her mother’s books on display in Borders. BeBe Moore Campbell is considered one of the greatest African-America writers since James Baldwin. A lot of Maia’s problems might have to do with the loss of her mother, who I read she was very close to.
Tue, February 9, 2010 2:11 PM
I’m so pleased to see this!
Tue, February 9, 2010 2:15 PM
@ GirlBye, yeah but you can definitely tell she wasn’t herself in that vid. And number two she was about to get beat or get into sumthin else when they pulled off.
Other than that Thank God she is doing well. God always bring you outta the dark and turns things around!!!
Tue, February 9, 2010 3:00 PM
God is good. Glad she is doing okay.
Tue, February 9, 2010 3:04 PM
YES!!! I’m so happy for Maia. I hope she continues on the road to recovery. I’ve been praying hard for her and was recently wondering how she was doing and hoping to get an update and here it is. God is good all the time!!;)
Tue, February 9, 2010 5:26 PM
God is good all the time… and all the time God is good. A few people in my family struggle with alcoholism and it’s really great to see someone get clean and sober.
Tue, February 9, 2010 5:43 PM
She looks great, I hope she stick with the rehab and stay on the straight and narrow. Go Maia!
Tue, February 9, 2010 5:48 PM
she is def. a natural beauty! thank god the drugs didn’t detriorate her looks
Tue, February 9, 2010 6:00 PM
YOU KNOW…I know Im getting old because Im starting to cry at the drop of a dime. Im rooting for this young lady. She has sooooo much talent that it would be a sad shame to let it go to waste. Im so happy she’s getting it together. BABY GIRL IF YOURE READING THIS ‘1DAY AT A TIME’ remember that. LOVE U GIRL
Tue, February 9, 2010 9:26 PM
Now this is good news! She looks much better!
Still wish her all the best.
Tue, February 9, 2010 10:09 PM
Seven great job being there on the scene to report good news about someone and not dishing dirt. God bless her in all things.
Thu, February 11, 2010 2:05 PM
I am so happy for her and I damn near cried when I saw that video of her because she is so beautiful and it would be a waste of true talent to see her succumb to her addiction!
