Roger Ebert announced on his blog that he is back to review movies for the Chicago Sun Times, something he hasn't been able to do since he was diagnosed with cancer. He added on his blog that he is cancer-free and is not requiring any surgery soon.
It will be nice to have him back! Not sure others in Hollywood will feel the same way…joking!

Ed McMahon, 85 suffered a broken neck last March in a fall at his house according to KTLA. Since the fall he had two operations and is going through rehab. His publicist issued this statement:
"It's been a tough year, but I'm working hard in rehab and doing the best I can to get through it."
He looks he is has been getting through it because that picture was taken from March 9th. Let's hope his recovery is a speedy one.

Paul McCartney had an angioplasty |

The Sun is reporting Paul McCartney, who had his share of heart break from Heather Mills, recently got an angioplasty.
A source said: “Paul had been complaining about not feeling well and saw a Harley Street specialist at The London Clinic.
“Tests were carried out and the decision was taken to operate. Paul had the angioplasty in a private hospital. It was all very routine but any work on your heart is a big deal.”
A friend of the legend said: “Luckily Paul is in very good shape. He does regular exercise and is fit.
"He eats well and does not carry any excess weight. He has always been in exceptional health, which is remarkable when you think of the rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle he once had.”
Last night Macca’s spokesman said of the hush-hush angioplasty performed in the autumn: “It was a routine medical operation.”
Poor Paul, but he looks like he is doing so much better. Hopefully the stress of going back to court next month with Heather will not be too much for his heart.

Cheryl Burke rushed to the hospital the day before the DWTS tour started |

Cheryl Burke flew to Seattle with her Dancing with the Stars co-stars to rehearse before opening night, but instead of hitting the dance floor she hit the hospital according to TV Guide.
"Last night, during the run-through, I was cramping and in pain," Burke tells TV Guide exclusively. "I couldn't even stand up straight." Burke, who was rushed to the hospital, was told that it is a possible case of appendicitis. She will fly home to San Francisco on Wednesday for a second opinion from her family doctors. "I hope it doesn't require surgery," she says. If it does, Burke will be off the two-month tour for an undetermined period of time.
"It's a disaster," says pro Louis van Amstel, who is choreographing the tour and has had to rearrange his lineup so many times he's stopped counting. Karina Smirnoff has stepped in to partner with Drew Lachey, on top of dancing at least a half-dozen more numbers with Van Amstel. "Cheryl can't be gone for more than a week," says Smirnoff. "I won't let her!"
The Dancing with the Stars 5 curse continues even after the season ended. I would be afraid to join the show for the sixth season at this rate.

Days after dressing up as his ex-wife Liza Minnelli collapsed on stage, David Gest was rushed to the hospital with chest pains and respiratory problems according to Sky Showbiz.
A spokeswoman has said: "At 5.30am, David Gest was admitted to hospital, after suffering from severe chest pains and respiratory problems.
"David is stable and receiving the best medical attention. We are awaiting a further update from doctors."
No other information was released, but I wonder if it was just gas.
