Keith Urban's rehab means no trip home

Keith Urban

New Zealand-born country singer Keith Urban's trip to rehab means a promotional visit Downunder for his new CD has been shelved.

Urban checked himself into a rehab centre for alcohol abuse, less than four months after his marriage to actress Nicole Kidman, saying: "I deeply regret the hurt this has caused Nicole and the ones that love and support me."

Urban has publicly acknowledged a former addiction to cocaine. His new CD, Love, Pain, & the whole crazy thing, will be released November 7.
