: MediaTakeOut.com was the FIRST NEWS SOURCE IN THE WORLD to tell you about actress Maia Campbell's troubles. And it seemslike it has done some GOOD . . . because Maia is now CLEAN AND SOBER -and is working on REBUILDING her career.

Here is a recent interview:

Here's a snippet of what she said in the video:

I know the last time everyone saw me, I was way out there on the other stretch of the road. I got myself together, I’ve been sober for two years and I’ve been stable and very [aware] of how this industry works.

I've been in this industry since I was a little girl so I’m a professional. I am very able to jump back into these waters and swim deep and get it in. So let’s get it poppin

Maia also said that Tracy Edmonds, Tyrese, andLL Cool J reached out to her after seeing her IN DISTRESS on MediaTakeOut.com . . . and they helped her get sober.

GREAT!! This is wonderful news! I hope she knows how many people have been rooting for her to beat her demons and reclaim her life. God bless you, Maia. We are so proud of you! Do your thang, Mama!


MiCkEyD214

she looks great! such a pretty girl


stormzoee

I really don't care. Her career is over. She needs to go to school and become a drug counselor...maybe learn how to write. She's had her *** and she will never be an respected actress again. It is what it is. Wanting the limelight will only make her fall again. Move on and go to church.


Prince Dior

God is good & she looks good im very happy for her may god continue to keep her


sweetnlow

God bless her im so proud of her keep up the good work i wish you a very successful comeback.


MTOsuxxs

She Looks Good... Glad Many Reached Out to Her... Wishing Her The Best!


LuvnULuvnMe

@Stormzoee..well said


FeelMyPulse123

She looks great. Good for her.


AversionToIgnorance

She looks great and I hope she can maintain her sobriety even if things don't work out the way she wants them to. She's a fighter. Unfortunately, singing is not her strength. That song screams 1994 and if that was the intension, it succeeded. I wish her the best but she's gonna have to lose that hoodtasticness in order to jump back in. Unowhatimsayin?


IamXcluZive903

really hope she got he life back on track. I always thought she was beautiful and a great actress. Search "Chase B One Day" on youtube


sxylitenig

Good for her, she looks great


blackbeautyanddiva

stormzoee flag as inappropriate/spam I really don't care. Her career is over. She needs to go to school and become a drug counselor...maybe learn how to write.

Move on and go to church. ********************************** 2nd chances are a blessing and if everybody gave up on something called HOPE we would have a very harsh world...what if 75% of the world think like you do about peole who once messed u and are expected not to succeed a second time around.....


panigg

I use to be in love with her when she was on in the house that crack messed her up but she looking better now so thats wassup.

2cute2care

And MTO why did you photo shop the mugshot pic (putting shades of grey in her hair) to make her look far worse than she does...tsk! tks!



prttybrwneyezz

Maia, I am so proud of you! It has no doubt been a tough road for you but keep your head up and stay on the right path. I believe your comeback will be filled with greatness -claiming it!


jnn121786

I'm praying for her and that she continues to remain sober to raise her child. She's a beautiful woman who has tremendous talent and was plagued by drugs after the lose of her mother, so with god willing she'll get through it I know stay strong baby girl


Smackey

Thank God! I love Maia Campbell and her mom too

Aaaaaa

Looking good girl.. Keep your head up


ltaylor05

Her daughter is the person that should be praised for staying sane through all of this, getting on drugs is very selfish when you have kids. Stop jumping for joy when people get off of drugs, they did it to themselves. If you're stupid enough to put that poison in your body and destroy your loved ones then you dont deserve anything but a shower and a job application when you decide to get clean from this very disgusting habit. If you get celebration and praise for getting on drugs then getting clean then what do I get for never getting on??


King Beef Atl

When she was working...I thought she was the prettiest chick on earth...especially in Tyrese Sweet Lady video....glad you kicked that monkey off your back Maia...


MissSadeBaby

I still cant believe she was really on crack tho... ***.. glad she got her *** back together tho, every girl needs her mother if she can have her.....


bee112

That is one beautiful girl...hope she stay strong and work on mental demons....watch the company u keep girl....keep ya head up.....ur moms looking down on u


sweetpea1

i knew alot of people that were addicted to crack and only 2 of them have been able to overcome their addictions, so congrats to maia and God Bless her with her continued sobriety

wichitagirl

I'm not familiar with any of her work, but I really hope this works out for her.


Vol

Glad to see her clean... Saw her in Philly a couple years ago and was SO sad.


mabeline

Wow I'd forgotten how beautiful this sista was, so glad she's getting over her addiction and trying to get back on her grind again. All the best Maia!! Her mom would be so proud, read a couple of her books.


mustardseeds27

So many people were praying for her, so many. God is good, and I'm glad she pulled it back together. What Maia has to do is BLOCK out all the negative drama that was in the past. Life is difficult, but she can be a testimony to the world that God can do it for you, if you hang in there.

God Bless this Maia. I'm still praying for you.


lajuicey

She's doing alot of things and really pushing forward despite al the things that have happened in her life. She's a strong person and I pray for her to have continued strength and even be more empowered so that one day she can see herself as one of those powerful industry people she speaks so highly of.


KikiCanDoIt

YESSSSS. GOD IS GOOD AND ALMIGHTY HE IS...So happy for this young lady, I will be supporting her in whatever she does. I would love to read her life story..


SALT

I saw this already and not thru mto. But anywho I am so glad she is doing better! I wish her a bright future. If Natalie Cole can do it she can too! #TeamMaia


dejavu81

SHE'S A REALLY STRONG WOMEN TO OVERCOME MENTAL ILLNESS AND A CRACK ADDICTION.I DON'T KNOW IF THE INDUSTRY IS A GOOD CHOICE MAYBE THOSE SAME PRESSURES IN THAT INDUSTRY LEAD HER DOWN THAT PATH. BUT ALL AND ALL IF SHE CAN OVERCOME THOSE SETBACKS THAN ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE


LikeMeOrNot

Testify Maia! And remember your help DID NOT come from the Devil's playground: Hollyweird. It came from the Lord.....using heavenly angels on earth in the form of Tracy, LL Cool J, Tyrese & those who love and care about you. God Bless!


onlyloveblackppl

she looks good, but Suffering these Curses R apart of being a Israelite, so don't Beat yourself up for your life style the lord is coming for the trodden down, poor, sick, blind , ppl *** these ghetto's ect.( ppl who need him) & it could B that God may have found Goodness in your heart & he lead you into these curses to keep U out of Hollywood so that U can receive your salvation & mercy, All of Israel should B waiting on the lord for our Redemption. So girlfriends don't sweat Hollywood, those ppl will not make it out of America alive, there souls have a front row seat *** Hell. Don't worry about trying to make a come back for these ppl just for them to look at you in a better light. To Hell with these Zombies, there sleep & will continue to sleep into these missile come. F*ck Tyler Perry & the rest of Hollywood, SEEK YOUR SALVATION BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE, THE LORD IS BRING JUDGMENT ON THIS EARTH TIME TO WAKE UP IS NOW!


Robena

It does my heart good to see this young lady healthy and working at getting her life back in order....God is good...


Ginger

It's never too late to start over again! I'm going to pray that Tyler offers her a ***, because she deserves it! People are always gonna have their opinion about what direction your life should take, but thank God our FATHER tells us who we are!!!! What a blessing she is sober!!!


playgirl420

Best news of the day, good to know that she pulled through. Been a fan since she played on 'In the House". A Tyler Perry Movie would be good for her, look what it did for KEISHA *** PULLIAM aka RUDY HUXTABLE.


ShawtyxRedd

GOD BLESS HER. SHE IS JUST TOO PRETTY FOR THAT MESS.

@ONLYLOVEBLACKPPL, MOST OF THE TIME YOUR COMMENTS ARE ALL OVER THE PLACE BUT THAT RESPONSE WAS REAL TALK! ALL APART OF TESTING YOUR FAITH. LOVE THAT COMMENT!


cocoa49

Now thats what you call a come back! So pretty



Ebonieee.

Too Pretty To Do Dhat Shiddd


angeldp1000

This is the time when everyone needs to be thanking God. A beautiful woman has just been delivered from addiction & ppl make a joke out of it when we just lost the Queen of pop better yet "The Voice", Whitney Houston. Her life was just spared when a legends life ended. We should be thanking God for Life. Shame on you all.


gottadobetter

@blkbeautydiva, u r so negative. look how many entertainers has comeback from drugs and emotional health issues, Angelina J, M. Donley Jr, Mik Jagger, drew barrymore, and many more. Much love Maia, only God can judge u. stay positive& strong.


Mrsburns2010

Finally! She's too pretty for that mess. In that second pic she look like she's 70 and had a hard life, she looks good and back to herself.


dallasprincess

All I can say is God Bless Her


MissKanga.

So good to see and she will be fighting those demons for life. She didnt lose her lookd either. Best comment is @blackbeautyanddiva Everyone deserves a second chance and sometimes a third and fourth chance when it comes to addictions


NOMUNK

I still cant believe how fine this chick is, and to see that cracked out pic of her is just unbelievable


Busted_Mon

DAM!!!! SHE FALL-OFF. SHE LOOKS HIDEOUS!!!


callicrew

OMG, so happy to see her. She is still gorgeous but most of all she's healthy...God is real and not one to be mocked. Everyone can fall prey to something, whether it's drugs or food or *** or alcohol, etc., so judge her not. Thank goodness for all the wonderful souls who helped her, and thank God she saw it in herself to accept the help from them. I will support her projects because the world missed her beauty and talent. We want to see her on tv television people!


Carmella82

She looks good. I'm happy for her.


Light Louisianian

DAM U DUMB DARKIES ARE ILLITERATE!!!

#TEAM LIGHTSKIN


tiplite2004

Kudos for coming clean


Truthseeker2013

Congratulations on being sober for two years! Just my opinion Maia but you need to stay as far away as you can from the wicked, satanic industry. You look like you have really done well by the grace of the Creator with getting your life back on track and the last thing you need to to be focusing on the industry. You may want to trust and have faith that your writing skills and natural abilities and gifts will allow you to make a living. Personally I feel and see evidence with you and other's that the "industry" does nothing but destroy people. You may want to focus and stay focused on your spiritual life, and trust and have faith that you can make it without the industry. Many people try to get back in the industry and the end result has been total destruction. You seem to be at peace with yourself so please reconsider and stop knocking at the devil's door. Peace.


Exceptional

Thank goodness


strawcream

Team Mia I been praying for her return :-)



ITSMEWHAT😘

I'm so happy for her. Me and my co-worker were just talking about her last month and I prayed that she get better. Congrats to her on getting her life back on track and getting involved in her daughter's life.


PreciousLove1

She still looks great! @precious_godiva


gb_24

***!! That was really her?! Glad she's getting her life on track.


MsFortune

im very happy for her and im so glad to find out that she finally turned her life around. not only should her books be published but she should also spread her story and message to the young kids in school. not a lot of ppl get second chances like her and for her to get that is a blessing. i really liked her in pretty much everything i saw her in on TV. i hope she keeps herself together for her daughter. she was always beautiful. good for her. this should be the top story of the day.


Missmedia81

Shes bi-polar MTO.... Bi Polar issues are ignored in the black community but she has a serious illness.


UKNOWUAINTRIGHT

Yeah Maybe mental illness is over some people in the black communities head because they sure dont empathize with the mentally sick. They love to ignore the mentally ill or use them as some form of entertainment. A lot of black women that are mentally ill end up on drugs homeless and prostituting. Actually blacks exploit women like that take pride and right rap songs about it.. Instead of getting them the therapy and help they deserve. Bi- Polar disorder is way serious.


RahDawgtheCEO

Always been a fan, so happy for her!!! @*** www.facebook.com/rahsheemy

Look me up ladies


Greg4422

I couldn't believe what I was seeing... but I'm glad she's working on getting her life together. It's a hard road, and there will probably be a speed bump or two along the way...but you can do it girl.


Alexan_Nevamind

So glad to see THE ILLUMINATE has not gotton to this one.

Way to go..............we are praying for you.


dat-dude

vanj

SHE WAS ONCE A RISING STAR. I HOPE SHE IS ABLE TO MAKE A COMEBACK. SHE SHOULD TALK TO WENDY WILLIAMS FOR GUIDANCE AS WELL. WENDY STRUGGLED WITH DRUGS AND NOW IS SOBER AND HAS BEEN FOR MANY YEARS.


vanj

SHE WAS ONCE A RISING STAR. I HOPE SHE IS ABLE TO MAKE A COMEBACK. SHE SHOULD TALK TO WENDY WILLIAMS FOR GUIDANCE AS WELL. WENDY STRUGGLED WITH DRUGS AND NOW IS SOBER AND HAS BEEN FOR MANY YEARS. HERE SHE IS WITH TYRESE: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvcClTjWvXM&feature=fvsr


PeachFuzz79

She has some extremely good DNA because she looks amazing. God is good so I am happy gor her. Thats a big move and a step in the right direction. I think Tyler Perry could get her back on top because he has an amazing heart. Best wishes to her and her beautiful daughter. Lord knows I was in shock when I saw her last pictures. Miaia....dont let the devil steal your beauty or your joy.
