I think after I marry LeAnn Rhimes, I am going to go get me some Sinead.

Sinead O'Connor has revealed a bit more about the wild Las Vegas drug hunt that contributed to the end of her 16-day marriage to substance-abuse counselor Barry Herridge.

The Irish singer on Monday announced the end of the relationship in a blog post that referred to "a wild ride" she took her husband on just hours after their marriage to find weed "for me wedding night as I don't drink." O'Connor explained, "My husband was enormously wounded and very badly effected by that experience."

So what exactly happened there?

O'Connor elaborated to the British tabloid the Sun: "We ended up in a cab in some place that was quite dangerous.... I wasn't scared — but he's a drugs counselor. What was I thinking?"

What was she thinking indeed. But the story got even better.

"Then I was handed a load of crack," O'Connor said. "Barry was very frightened — that kind of messed everything up a bit really."

Loads of crack on one's wedding night generally tends to complicate matters for anyone. Who can blame Herridge — who makes his living back in Dublin telling others to steer away from drugs — from wanting to run in the other direction?

O'Connor explained her feelings about the relationship in even more dramatic terms: "It felt like I was living in a coffin. It was going to be a coffin for both of us and I saw him crushed."

smh. I had seen the headlines and just assumed she was going to get married and it would be all nice and normal and maybe last a few years.

it was pretty surprising to me when she began to make them again in the second half of last year. you'd almost think that she had a new album imminent and her pr house is one of the most formidable around
