Octomom's Internal Bleeding Keeps Her In The Hospital

trix — Sat, 16 May 2009 11:32:00 GMT

Ooh, I bet she's pissed. She takes a day off to get a little surgery, suffers some internal bleeding and Jon & Kate take over the headlines. What's a poor fame whore to do?

Nadya Suleman's routine surgery took a turn for the worse when she suffered from internal bleeding.

Don't worry, she's fine, Nadya's attorney says that she was scared.

Um, yeah! Of course she was scared.

She did have to stay in the hospital an extra day to have the surgery finished, and is expected to fully recover.

I'm sure the whole bleeding internally thing was super scary, but she probably was most scared of the lost publicity. Is that mean?

She couldn't possibly give an interview while in the hospital could she?

Octo-Mom's Hospital Gets Fined For Privacy Violations

Josh loposer — Fri, 15 May 2009 22:00:00 GMT

Ouch! The hospital where Nadya Suleman gave birth to the now legendary octuplets got slapped with a $250,000 fine for violating Octo-mom's privacy.

The hospital apparently fired all 15 employees who illegally accessed Suleman's electronic medical files already, and didn't expect the state to take any further action.

Allegedly, these people were so hungry for juicy details and gossip about Octo that they put their jobs at risk. They should have just started reading Famecrawler and they'd still be employed. Sad.

Apparently, nobody succeeded at finding the true identity of the sperm donor. That guy's got to be thanking his lucky stars for that!

I'm not exactly sure why California health officials care so much about Octo-mom's privacy, since she doesn't seem to care about it. In fact, publicity is pretty much the one and only opportunity Suleman has to generate any significant income.

Mariska Hargitay - Recovery Was A Breeze

trix — Mon, 11 May 2009 18:31:00 GMT

Mariska Hargitay had quite the health scare at the beginning of this year. The cure, besides a great medical team, was the laughter that only your family can provide.

She said, "I'm doing great, I'm feeling so much better and I'm lucky because I'm really strong and recuperated pretty quickly. They made me laugh and they just loved me up. My son enjoys to laugh like me."

Awww, that's sweet.

Must be nice, when I get sick at my house, my kids still expect me to give 100%. How about you? Does someone take care of you when you are sick or are you still the care taker?

BTW The picture is adorable, there isn't any of that SVU badassery on her face.

Liev Says His Boys Are Driving Him Bonkers

Josh loposer — Tue, 05 May 2009 17:30:00 GMT

Liev Schreiber loves his sons, no doubt, but he says the combination of a 4-month-old and a 21-month-old in the house is not exactly a recipe for peace and tranquility.

"There's nothing fun about the age they're at right now. Each one on their own is insanely fun, but the combination of the two of them after hours is just chaos. I don't remember the last time I slept like a human being."

Hopefully, that's just the exhaustion talking. I'm pretty sure there's got to be at least one fun thing about the age they're at now, it's just hard to enjoy it when you're at your breaking point.

Sure, having two young children can push you to the limits of your own sanity, but at least it also helps prepare you for advanced interrogation techniques like sleep depravation. You never know, maybe Liev will get cast as a Jack Bauer-esque hero in a future film, now that he's broken into the action movie genre with his portrayal of Sabretooth in X-Men Origins: Wolverine.

Liev's had a pretty busy month, with the premiere of the X-Men movie and a scarry trip to the hospital with Sasha. Thankfully, everything seems to be A-okay with 21-month-old.

Watts And Schreiber's Son Taken To Hospital

Josh loposer — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 13:30:00 GMT

Naomi Watts and Liev Schreiber got a pretty huge scare last night when their 21-month-old son Sasha went to the hospital with respiratory problems.

Luckily, everything seems to be okay now, and little Sasha has come home after a night in the hospital. Says Schreiber's rep:

“Sasha got home today and is feeling much better after being hospitalized on Tuesday night with respiratory problems.”

If you happened to be lucky enough to get a ticket to the LA premiere of X-Men Origins: Wolverine, you may have noticed that Liev, who plays Sabretooth in the flick, was nowhere to be found. That's because he immediately flew to New York to be with his family.

That who experience had to be really freaky for Naomi and Liev, I'm glad that little Alexander "Sasha" Pete is going to be alright. I'm sure the family is super relieved.

Charlie Sheen's Twins Are 'Doing Great'

Josh loposer — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 17:30:00 GMT

After her son Max's long-awaited homecoming earlier this month, Charlie Sheen's wife Brooke Mueller reports that the boys are "doing great." And, now that everything's A-okay, she's is opening up about the whole freaky experience.

"It was scary ... I went to the NICU to see them and words can't express how amazing and shocking to see two human beings that came out of me. But I was scared. Our babies had so many tubes on them, it was frightening. I didn’t have the easiest pregnancy. I had preeclampsia, gestational diabetes and cholestasis."

Although many of the rumors about Max's health indicated that he had some kind of heart condition, Sheen denied the reports, saying that what Max is going through is completely normal for preemies. Thankfully, that appears to be true.

Max was held in the hospital for almost a whole month because he was under the minimum weight necessary for doctors to release him. As for how the boys have developed since their homecoming:

"They are completely Sheens," Brooke jokes. "They don't have any Mueller genes. I'm like, 'Can I at least have an ear?!' Bob looks identical to Charlie. Everybody at the NICU called him Charlie. And Max looks like (Charlie's dad) Martin."

Jade Goody's Boys Lose Another Loved One

trix — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 16:02:00 GMT

Oh, my goodness, I don't think I can take anymore sad news today. Jade Goody's poor little boys lost their great grandfather to suicide yesterday.

He was recently diagnosed with throat and mouth cancer and took his own life. We don't know what the suicide note said, but I can't help but think that he didn't want live through what Jade did.

He left the suicide note on the kitchen table for his family and a gun was found next to his body.

Poor Jeff Brazier, to lose the mother of your children is hard, no matter what kind of relationship you had. But to lose another family member within a few short weeks is just more then anyone should have to bear.

Jeff's rep said that he will wait to tell the boys because, " They are very young and have had more than enough pain in the past few weeks."

Our thoughts go out to the family in their time of loss.

McConaughey Talks About DJing Camila's 14 Hour Labor

Josh loposer — Thu, 16 Apr 2009 21:00:00 GMT

Like lots of trendy ladies these days, Camila loaded an iPod playlist full of tunes that she thought she'd like to hear while she was in labor with son Levi. As a supportive boyfriend and father, Matthew McConaughey got to be the DJ.

Unlike some more common playlists loaded with calming, inspirational pop tunes like Stevie Wonder's "Isn't She Lovely," Camila apparently went with a playlist full of Brazilian tribal tunes to help her through the journey -- and apparently she's pretty picky about her tribal grooves.

While Camila was the one doing all the pushing, McConaughey apparently found the task of DJing the even pretty exhausting as well:

“She was also really quick to say, ‘Skip that f–kin’ song!’ So here I was blazing through this playlist while she’s nodding her head yay or nay, and I’m like, ‘This next song better have that groove or I’m going to have to run across the bed and change it.’”

Have you guys ever created a labor playlist? If so, what songs did you put on it. I know what my #1 pick would be: "Welcome to the Jungle."

Jenna Flaunts The Twins

Josh loposer — Wed, 15 Apr 2009 23:01:00 GMT

Perhaps these are not the twins you would have expected Jenna Jameson to be flaunting a year ago. but a lot can change in 9 months. You don't have to be 18 to check these babies out.

Jenna Jameson finally got to bring her two premmies home from today after a full month of having to visit them in the hospital. The 35-year-old ex-porn goddess and her boyfriend Tito Ortiz welcomed her twin boys Jesse and Journey on March 15th, after a 33 week pregnancy.

In a recent blog post, Jenna talked about her labor, which she claims went as good as possible:

"I was blessed with a very easy labor, it lasted about 2 hours. When it came to pushing them out, I truly believe the 500 sit ups a day paid off. I was able to push my 5 pound Jesse out in 5 pushes. Journey who was 4lb 11 oz. was out in 3 pushes."

Farrah Fawcett Near Death?

Whit Honea — Mon, 06 Apr 2009 20:31:00 GMT

There have been reports that Farrah Fawcett, who has been battling cancer, is close to death. She was listed as unconscious and critical in a Los Angeles hospital, but the latest reports claim that she is doing better and will be released soon.

Let's hope for the latter.

Fawcett's homecoming will not be without additional drama. Her troubled son Redmond O'Neal (dad is Ryan O'Neal) was arrested yesterday for drug possession and trying to take narcotics into a jail- which I suppose is a good way to cut out the middle man, but you don't get to collect $200 (see Monopoly). However, it's probably not the kind of thing that a very sick parent needs to deal with.

Hopefully Farrah will regain her health and Redmond will get some help.

Yes, Redmond is a bit old to make the cut at FameCrawler, but he's an old school celebrity kid and unfortunately his actions have become something of a stereotype. Let's hope the current crop of famous children are able to take a different path.

Jade Goody's Boys Aren't Going To The Funeral

trix — Tue, 31 Mar 2009 23:02:00 GMT

Jade Goody's sons are so, understandable distraught over their mothers death that they are not going to attend the planned funeral on the April 4.

Jade's mother Jackiey said, the boys are so young I don't think their broken hearts will be able to bear it. “It’s also about the safekeeping of their memories of their mum for when they are older.”

Jackiey doesn't want the boys to remember the media circus surrounding their mother's funeral. She wants the memories they have to be of her before she was sick. The memories of the joyous childhood that every parent wants for their children.

Two days after the funeral, Jade's last book will be published. It's title is, Jade: Remember Me This Way, and all the profits from the book will go to the Marie Curie Cancer Care. The book has hundreds of photo, Jade's favorite photos that she selected for the book.

Sasha Schreiber is Adorable in Blue

Sasha Schreiber holds on tight to his daddy on the way home from a tough day at the office.

It looks like Sasha may need some serious tickling to get rid of that frown.

I love that he's wearing blue shirts, they make his blue eyes just pop. I have my own blue eyed blond and I always buy him blue shirts for the very same reason.

Do you buy clothes in certain colors for your kids, because you know they are going to look extra cute in them?

Update: Jade Goody's Funeral Arrangements Set

trix — Wed, 25 Mar 2009 21:35:00 GMT

If you are on of the fans of Jade Goody, you'll be happy to hear that the final arrangements for her funeral have been made.

The funeral will take place on April 4. The church service will take place in Buckhurst Hill, Essex, after leaving her home in Upshire, Essex. Now, I'm not sure how far the her home is from the church, but I'm sure there is plenty of room for well wishers to line the roads to say goodbye to Jade. The police have been drafted to help control the crowds, so you know they are expecting you to come say goodbye.

There will be loud speakers and if they re able to erect them, large TV's to air the service. However the funeral will not be televised on a network. The family did draw the line at that.

Jack Tweed, Jade's husband of 1 month, is afraid he may miss the funeral procession and service. He is scheduled to appear in court and may end up back in jail for assaulting a cabbie in May of 2008. Jade expressed her wishes that he be at the funeral and be a second father to her children, she also stated that Jack was a changed man.

Whatever happens, if he ends up in jail or is allowed to attend the funeral, the powers that be have to know that living through Jade's illness and death have changed him. I know I don't know him personally, but I'm willing to bet he has matured a ton in the last six months.

Jade Goody's Supporters Turn Out In Droves

trix — Tue, 24 Mar 2009 11:30:00 GMT

Jade Goody died early Sunday morning and already hundreds of mourners, supporters and fans have left tributes at her home.

The tributes are along the lines of flowers, cards, balloons, and stuffed animals. Though the family has asked for their privacy, to mourn in peace, they do appreciate the outpouring of love for Jade.

Jade's mom Jackiey said that they are overwhelmed by the public reaction of her death. She commented, " It just shows how many people really loved her."

I think that many people have latched on to Jade's story as a chance to grieve for something or someone they have lost.

It's hard not to be strong all the time, I personally need a sad movie or song to evoke tears. I find it's easier to feel for someone else, than to feel my own pain. We can all relate to Jade in some way, whether you are a mother, a daughter, a wife, we've all lost someone dear to us.

Jade Goody - Celebrate My LIfe

trix — Mon, 23 Mar 2009 21:31:00 GMT

Jade Goody's family is planning her funeral. They are taking in to consideration Jade's wishes and are making the final arrangements to make her final wishes come true.

Jade wanted her funeral procession to travel through two different villages on the way to the church. The church service will be watched by attendees outside of the church on TV screens set up for that purpose. I'm sure there will be many there, wanting to be a part of something bigger than us all.

She wanted her funeral to be a "celebration" of the life she led.

So if you were a fan of Jade and even if you weren't, take this time to look around at your loved ones and tell them they mean everything to you. Take time to make your appointment for your scan, take care of yourself. Look at the bright side and remember that the glass is always half full. Live life to the fullest and tell your children you love them each and every day. There isn't time to hold on to grudges and anger, life is to be lived joyfully. Live, love, and laugh every moment you can.

Jade Goody Headed to the Big Screen?

Is there a Jade Goody movie in the works?

It's been reported that "Big Brother" producer Gigi Eligoff, wants to make a movie about Jade's rags-to-riches journey.

She said, "Jade's young, she's got lots of money, she's got two young boys and she's dying. I wouldn't be surprised if her story was turned into a movie."

Max Clifford, Jade's publicist, added that: " [Jade] is a story of our time. She is a girl from Bermondsey who admits she has 'no talent', a limited education and suffered a dreadful childhood. Yet she's world famous."

I've already lived her story through the papers and posts I've written, I don't know if I could watch it all over again on the big screen. It's heart breaking and kills me every time I read about her and her boys. I can only think about how much they will miss her and miss all the things that she would represent in their future.

Natasha Richardson's Family Fight and Hope

Whit Honea — Wed, 18 Mar 2009 19:10:00 GMT

Natasha Richardson has been surrounded by family at Lenox Hill hospital in New York City since being severely injured while skiing in Canada.

According to Yahoo: Representatives for Richardson, 45, and her husband actor Liam Neeson repeatedly declined to comment on the severity of her injury, but the New York Times reported the actress was in "a serious condition with head injuries."

Television footage showed Richardson's mother, actress and activist Vanessa Redgrave, sister, television star Joely Richardson, and aunt, actress Lynn Redgrave, arriving at the Lenox Hill Hospital in Manhattan overnight.

Photos also showed two boys -- identified by local media as Richardson's sons with Neeson, Daniel Jack, 12, and Michael, 13 -- leaving the hospital early on Wednesday. The couple own homes in Manhattan and Millbrook, New York, north of the city.

The 45-year-old actress is still in critical condition and visitors have been paying their respects around-the-clock.

According to Gossip Girls: One Richardson family member told press, “I’m hoping to hear from Liam [Neeson] with good news. I’m really anxious. I feel sick to the pit of my stomach. I just hope she is going to be OK, I really do.

“We’re doing our best to stay up-to-date on what’s happening, but it’s difficult when they know so little themselves,” the family member continued. “We’re a strong family, and Natasha is part of that family. We’re good at putting up a fight.”

Our continued thoughts to Natasha and her family.

Jade Goody Wants One Last Hurrah After Doctors Rush To Her Side

trix — Wed, 18 Mar 2009 12:33:00 GMT

Jade Goody woke up from a deep sleep on Monday evening and wanted a party.

She shouted to her family: "Everyone go and get ready - we'll have one big last party." She told everybody to cheer up and told her mom to put on more makeup.

That has to be so bittersweet for her family. They are happy to see her awake, but know that it's just a matter of time. Jade tells them to put on a happy face, but they have to be smiling through the tears.

The family is staying by her bedside, just to be near her.

The doctors were called to her bedside, either before or shortly after this scene and told the family to prepare for the worst.

Jade's spokesperson told the press, "We do not know how long she has left, we are on the edge of a precipice."

It's like waiting for the other shoe to drop, I don't what I would do in a situation like that. It's painful and heart breaking all at the same time.

Jade Is Struggling to Finish A Book About Her Life and Death

trix — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 22:03:00 GMT

Jade Goody is writing a book about her life and battle with cancer and the imminence of death. She has been working on this book with a writer for the past couple of months, but is now afraid that she won't live long enough to finish it.

She decided to write the cancer diary after receiving the terminal diagnosis late last year. She realized it would be the only time she would get to finish her life story.

It was very important for her to tell her story in her own words, we the media are, after all, the media. The diary is for her sons when they get older, so they know that all she ever wanted to do was love them and provide a future for them.

The book is also for women to know that they aren't alone when facing this disease, they are not suffering alone.

Update: Jade Goody Watched Her Last Sunset

trix — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 13:35:00 GMT

Jade Goody was propped up in bed yesterday to watch what she thinks will be her last sunset. She had to summon all of her strength to be propped up, but it was definitely worth it to her to do.

Her family is waiting for the inevitable, they are waiting for her to die. That is a heart-wrenching thing to have to do but they are staying by her side every step of the way.

They are happy for small miracles though because, Jade is finally not in any pain and is sleeping comfortably. That was the biggest issue, the pain, and now it's gone.

Jade begged her mom Jackiey not to let her boys see her die, she doesn't want them to remember her in death, she wants them to remember her in life.

I know we have covered this story in its entirety, but it still amazes me when we receive negative comments about Jade's life or what she is doing now. I figure that, no matter what "negative" things Jade Goody has done, the good outweighs the bad.

We have the example of the money she donated to help get 126 kids into a proper shelter in India, she was their "Slumdog Saviour". Their words not mine.

We could give examples of good or bad things that people have done all da, but it really comes down to losing a family member. Two little boys are losing a mother, a mother is losing her daughter and a husband is losing his wife. No matter how you look at it, it's a sad situation.

The one good thing that will hopefully come out of all of this, is that the age for cervical screenings goes down. The awareness is up and more women have gone to get checked, but the age really needs to be lowered and this case may be the one that gets it there.

Shilpa Shetty and Jade clashed on the set of "Big Brother" but later made amends. Shilpa is hoping to see Jade one last time, because she couldn't attend the wedding because of filming commitments.

I guess she always thought Jade would get better.

Jade Goody Only Has Hours Left To Live

trix — Sun, 15 Mar 2009 01:07:00 GMT

Jade Goody took a turn for the worse Friday night and is said to be unlikely to live through the weekend.

She is tired and in pain and is afraid to fall asleep, lest she not wake up again. Because of this, she is exhausted and has no relief in sight.

A source says, "She only has hours left, her situation worsened so much overnight that it's not looking good to anyone." The police have let Jack's curfew be relaxed in this case of emergency, he is allowed to be at her side 'round the clock.

"She's been crying her eyes out, she's been in floods of tears because she too realises it's nearly the end of the road. The family were told maybe Jade would make it to Tuesday but after such a bad night that's been revised to Monday and maybe sooner."

"She's in a very bad way and has been in so much awful pain. They've given her a lot of medication and she's been in a deep sleep most of the day and hasn't woken up.But Jade's getting weaker and weaker and is looking very pale."

"We all knew it was getting close when she couldn't even raise a smile or give a thumbs-up when she was taken home from hospital on Wednesday. She's gone downhill a lot since then and everyone around her is really upset. Her mum Jackiey is in pieces.Everyone knew this was going to happen, but it's still desperately sad."

Her spokesman, Max Clifford, added: "It's a matter of hours, she's got dramatically worse overnight. Sadly, she's very close to the end."

We've received so many heartfelt comments of love and hope for Jade, we appreciate all of your expressions, thank you! We know that Jade and her family appreciate them as well, please keep them coming. It always help to talk about these situations because they help us face our own fears and mortality.

Jade Goody - A Bright Spot In a Dark World

trix — Fri, 13 Mar 2009 17:32:00 GMT

Even though her cancer has metastasized and she is losing her vision, Jade Goody had something to look forward to yesterday. Jade went home and was able to spend time with all three of her boys.

Her ex, Jeff Brazier, brought her boys Freddie and Bobby home and her new husband Jack Tweed was there for the whole night, Jade was understandably, "Over the Moon". The police relaxed Jack Tweed's curfew two nights a week which enables the family to be together during this time of her hospice.

Max Clifford, Jade's spokesman, said: "It's the best thing she could have hoped for. Jade was delighted to see them and it gave her a little lift."

Jack will be spending the night on Thursdays and Saturdays. That's a long time in between nights, but at least he will be there during the day to keep her company.
