Bill Murray: Lost in Litigation

Whit Honea — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 21:04:00 GMT

You've probably heard that Bill Murray and his wife Jennifer are getting a divorce. This was breaking news when I started writing this post, and then I started watching a hockey game- it just ended. That was 5 days ago.

I figured I better get to it before the NBA Finals tip-off.

Everybody's favorite meatball is being accused by his wife of being abusive towards her and a plethora of vices- drugs, alcohol and sex. It's ugly.

The couple have four children, which makes it all the tougher. Hopefully Bill can sort out whatever issues he has soon. I'm ready for a Stripes 2: Electric Boogaloo.

50 Cent Defends 'Fat' Eminem

50 Cent says that people should stop dissing Eminem for his supposed weight gain. Because, you know, it's not nice, and also, because Em's in shape now and will kick your ass.

According to MTV.com, 50 laughed off (in a recent MTV interview) recent rumors that Em — who has all but disappeared from the public eye in recent years — has been packing on the pounds, and that as a result of his weight gain, has become a recluse, venturing out of his Detroit-area mansion only to gorge himself on meals from Taco Bell and Outback Steakhouse. The G-Unit captain insisted that fans are going to be seeing a slim-and-trim Eminem real soon.

"Em is in shape right now. He looks good. I seen him in Detroit. He's gonna look real good when you see him return," Fif laughed. "He's in shape right now."

Rumors started circulating that Eminem was looking like a middle-aged dad (which, um, he is, depending upon how you define 'middle-age') earlier this year when Eminem was admitted to a Detroit hospital for complications arising from pneumonia and it was reported that he weighed over 200 lbs (the approximate weight of a 5 foot 8 nine-month pregnant woman *cough*)

But Fiddy says whatever weight Eminem might have gained in his sabbatical from his previously high-profile life, it's gone now. According to him, Eminem is in fine ballin' form: "The last time I seen him we played basketball together," 50 said. Which, awesome. Fiddy sounds like a great lifestyle coach and personal trainer.

I wonder if he takes post-partum clients?

Eminem Hospitalized.

Marshall Mathers, aka Eminem, was hospitalized over the holidays because a heart condition and severe pneumonia. And his health has, reportedly, been further complicated by a dramatic weight gain.

"Over the holidays, Marshall Mathers was under doctor's care at a Detroit-area hospital for complications due to pneumonia," the rapper's publicist, Dennis Dennehy, said Tuesday. "He has since been released and is doing well recovering at home." TMZ.com elaborated on the statements when they reported that Eminem was rushed to the hospital over the holidays for a serious heart condition and severe pneumonia, and noted that the rapper - formerly a well-muscled lightweight - now weighs in at well over 200 pounds. Rapid and significant weight gain is not good for the heart. (And, no, I will not make any Slim Shady jokes here.)

Here's hoping that he recovers fully, and that he can get back to healthy fighting weight. His kids - and (ahem) his fans - need him.
