Ailing Maya Angelou back home after brief hospitalization

One of Maya Angelou’s doctors says the poet and author is recovering at her North Carolina home following a brief hospitalization.

Gwyneth Paltrow reveals miscarriage

Oscar-winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow has two children: Apple, 8, and Moses, 6. But as the GOOP founder recently revealed to the Daily Mail‘s You magazine, she was, at one point, expecting a third child as well. The pregnancy, unfortunately, ended in a miscarriage.

“My children ask me to have a[nother] baby all the time,” Paltrow explained in an interview. “And you never know, I could squeeze one more in. I am missing my third. I’m thinking about it. But I had a really bad experience when I was pregnant with my third. It didn’t work out and I nearly died. So I am like, ‘Are we good here, or should we go back and try again?’”

Paltrow gave no other details about the pregnancy, though she did tell the Mail that she feels “very broody” when she sees pal Beyoncé with her own daughter, one-year-old Blue Ivy. The singer, too, suffered a miscarriage about two years before Blue Ivy was born.

Ed Asner hospitalized after stage performance

Veteran actor Ed Asner, 83, left the stage in the middle of a performance last night and was taken to a hospital “due to exhaustion,” his reps have confirmed to EW.

“While performing his one-man show FDR in Gary, Ind., last night, Ed Asner had to be taken off-stage due to exhaustion and is resting comfortably at a Chicago-area hospital. [He] is expected to be released later today,” his publicist said in a statement.

TMZ first broke the story, reporting that Asner was escorted off-stage and taken to a hospital for treatment after he began struggling with his lines. “He is being assessed right now and what I can say is that it was not a stroke. That much we do know,” Asner’s son Matt told TMZ.

Kelly Osbourne has been released from Cedars-Sinai hospital after a five-day stay, People reports. Osbourne was admitted after having a seizure on the set of E!’s Fashion Police last Thursday.

According to her doctors, Osbourne’s medical crisis shouldn’t have any long-term effects. “Doctors ran numerous tests and determined that this was most likely a onetime episode of which there are no conclusive results,” her rep told E! News. “She is looking forward to returning to Fashion Police this week and getting back to business and life as usual.”
