[QUOTE]Police in a suburb of Chicago are searching for Irish singer Sinead O'Connor who has been reported missing for more than a day.

Wilmette Police "are seeking to check the well-being" of the 49-year-old, they said in a brief press release.

Police were called after O'Connor "left the Wilmette area" for a bicycle ride at 0600 local time on Sunday, and had not returned after more than a day.

No more information is currently available, police say.

O'Connor became a global star in 1990 with the worldwide hit Nothing Compares 2 U, a song written by Prince.

She has recorded 10 solo albums but has also made headlines with controversial outbursts throughout her career.

In 1992, she ripped apart a photo of Pope John Paul II during a live television broadcast and has been a strong critic of the Catholic Church over its handling of the child abuse scandal.[/QUOTE]

Wasn't she also missing just a few months ago as well? The poor woman needs help.

What was her latest outburst about on twitter? I remember hearing about it but can't for the life of me remember what it was actually about.

Maybe she wanted to see if people would notice if she went missing

Listen to the first minute of this. She's great, but she makes bad choices, clearly demonstrated by her choice of duet partner.
