Gary Coleman Hospitalized After Seizure

Troubled actor Gary Coleman is being treated at a Los Angeles area hospital after suffering a seizure on the set of The Insider Friday, the show itself reports.
The star has "received immediate medical attention by Drew Pinsky, M.D. who was sitting next to him at the time," according to The Insider. Yes, seriously.
"He was transferred in stable condition to a local hospital."
Last month, the 41-year-old was briefly hospitalized in L.A. after he suffered what he called "seizure activity." He was also arrested for domestic violence.

Gary Coleman has a history of health problems.
It's not clear if Gary's wife Shannon is with him at this time. The ailing Coleman was born with failed kidneys and underwent two transplants before age 14.
At one stage in his life, he underwent dialysis four times a day to survive.
It's unclear if his recent seizures are kidney-related, but regardless, it's good to hear things appear stable. Here's hoping Gary recovers fully and quickly.

Mezhgan Hussainy: Engaged to Simon Cowell!

Is the speculation over? Is Mezhgan Hussainy set to be Mrs. Simon Cowell?

Radar Online does not offer any direct quotes on the rumor, but the website says Hussainy herself told its vice president that she was engaged to the American Idol judge.
Earlier this week, during a simple, sweet, candid moment on the show, Ryan Seacrest asked Simon who he kept winking to in the audience and Cowell replied: "My girlfriend."

Says Simon's publicist, Max Clifford:
“They are very suited. She is someone who is independent and says what she thinks and feels, and he likes that. He's probably the happiest I have ever known him in the nine years I've been working with him."

Hussainy works as a make-up artist on American Idol. Assuming she really is engaged to Cowell, insiders say a wedding may take place in the very near future. We wish these two the best!

Jim Carrey becomes Grandpa!!

Jim Carrey  


Jim Carrey's family just experienced a very fortunate event.
The 47-year-old actor became a first-time grandpa Friday when his daughter Jane welcomed her first child with her musician hubby, Alex Santana.
Son Jackson Riley Santana was born at 12:28 a.m. in Los Angeles, weighing 7 pounds, 11 ounces and measuring 20 inches long, E! News confirmed.
Carrey revealed that his baby was having a baby in July. "I am very excited," he said at the time. "Jane is going to be a great mom."
Jane and Alex, both lead singers in their respective rock bands, tied the knot November. Jane is Carrey's daughter with first wife Melissa Womer.

Kristen Stewart Doesn't Hate Fame

She might rarely been seen with a smile on her face, but that doesn't mean Kristen Stewart hates being a celebrity as much as some think.
While promoting the movie The Yellow Handkerchief, Stewart admitted that she can get sick of the paparazzi invading her personal space, but she also understands it comes with the territory.
"I can't say I don't want that, because people take it to the extreme and say that I hate it," Kristen told E! News. "No, no, no! That's not true."
If it's taken Stewart longer than most to adjust, it's because she never saw any of this coming. When she first signed on for Twilight, the actress says she couldn't have predicted that she and Robert Pattinson would cover every tabloid on the market.
"We didn't even know we were going to make a second one. We were just like, 'It's really cool. It's different and we've never seen a love story like this.' I thought it would just be another cool Catherine Hardwicke movie."
It was... and then some!

As for rumors that Breaking Dawn will be split into two movies?
"It looks like a 'yes,' but it's still not concrete," Stewart said. "It would be hard to cram all of it into one movie."
If the final book really is broken into a pair of films, Kristen will remain in the spotlight for that much longer. Hopefully, she's at least smiling on the inside over that possibility.
