Hollywood Legend Peter Falk Suffering from Alzheimers
Peter Falk’s daughter says her father is suffering from Alzheimer’s and dementia.
Catherine Falk is concerned that someone may take advantage of the Oscar nominees situation and try and dupe him out of monies or property. She says he is no longer competent to control his estate or even the simple things in life. She is concerned tha he may be easily “deceived into transferring away property.”
She is requesting conservatorship to protect him from “fraud or undue influence.”
In court documents Catherine states that her father “requires full-time custodial care for his health and safety.”
A hearing is scheduled for January 2009.
Former First Lady Nancy Regan Hospitalized After Fall
Nancy Regan, the wife of the late President Ronald Regan, was hospitalized after falling and fracturing her pelvis and lower spine.
She reportedly fell after getting out of bed during the night sometime last week and has been in pain ever since. Ironically, she admitted herself into the Ronald Regan UCLA Medical Center shortly after.
No surgery will be required for the 87-year-old, but recovery may take 8 weeks or longer.

No Botox for Linda Hamilton!
Although she is only 51, ex-Terminator badass Linda Hamilton has aged quite a bit in recent years.
But good for her for not feeling pressured to inject and cut on her face like so many celebrities have.
It would kind of be cool to watch the women of Hollywood actually age like the rest of us, wouldn’t it?
When All They Can Do is Make Fun of Your Knees..
…you know you look pretty damn good.
So what if Elle MacPherson shows a little loose skin in a bad photo. She’s 44!
She looks amazing, and can still give women half her age a run for their money.

Celebrity Quote of the Day – Meg Ryan
Fabulous Faghag
Of all the gay icons in the world, Elizabeth Taylor, 76, has to be the Queen.
And in return, she loves her gay fans right back.
Last night Liz showed up at her fave gay club, WeHo’s The Abbey, thrilling patrons by interacting and chatting with them – all the while enjoying a ’sizeable’ martini herself.
This was Liz’s first visit to the club since being hospitalized last month.
Despite rumors about her deteriorating health, Liz was energetic and happy. One club goer said Liz absolutely lit up the room.
“She was lively. She was laughing and she was smiling. Even if she was not as strong as the last time she was here, she was once again the life of her small party.”
As Liz and her small dog Daisy, prepared to leave, Liz’s assistant placed a large pair of rhinestone sunglasses on the icon.
A witness watched Liz leave. He said,
“She needed help getting into the car. As [they] drove away in this gigantic black sedan, all you could see was those sunglasses and a big smile on her face.”
After a giant martini and a little club time, I’m sure Liz needed help getting into the car – and probably into bed! Good for her, still having a good time at 76 years old. Tabloids have been talking about her being deathly ill since she was in her 50s. I doubt the rumors faze her anymore. You go, girl!
Mackenzie Phillips is Still a Junkie
Apparently Mackenzie Phillips‘ (One Day at a Time, American Graffiti) drug days are not a thing of the past.
Around 10:00 am this morning as she was being screened by security, baggies of cocaine and heroin fell to the floor. Officer responded and she was promptly arrested. She is currently in custody.
Mackenzie is the daughter of John Phillips of The Mamas and the Papas, and the stepdaughter of Michelle Phillips, also in the band.
Phillips has a long history with drug abuse and once said she started using marijuana and LSD when she was 12. She claims her father showed her how to shoot up when she was 18. Around that same time Mick Jagger, who was a guest in the Phillip’s home, seduced her saying, “I’ve been waiting to do this since you were ten years old.” Eww!
Poor Mackenzie. Still fighting those demons. And with a screwed up childhood like that, it’s not surprising.
