Ice-T told TMZ that he got the flu shot after his friend’s sister died from Swine flu, according to Contact Music. The rapper admitted he wasn’t really aware of the dangers of H1N1 until someone he knew was affected. He said:

“I actually had a friend die from the swine flu. One of my friend’s I went to school with, his sister.
I didn’t really take it seriously until that happened.

It’s real s**t. I took a flu shot.”

I have to admit that I’ve been thinking that the swine flu scare was more hype because so many people die from the regular flu every year too, but I actually know someone who caught it too so I am probably getting the shot as soon as it’s available to everyone.

It’s no surprise that Courtney Love is malnourished. The troubled rocker believes her recent diagnosis of malnutrition is due to her stress over the fraud case, according to FemaleFirst.

Courtney Love admitted to Grazia magazine that her weight is a problem:
“I know I’ve got too skinny. I know those pictures of me are going everywhere. I know I need to sort it out. I thought I was like 130 pounds (59.1 kilograms), but I’m 118 pounds (53.6 kilograms) and I’m five feet 10 inches, that’s not good for someone my height. I need to start working out again.”

Love explained:

“It’s the stress - you have no idea what it has been like these last few months.

I’ve had to escape Los Angeles, I can’t cope there anymore.”

However, she’s trying to get healthier:

“I’m drinking high-calorie shake and almond milk, whey protein and coconut and I just ate a whole croissant.”

Poor Courtney! It sounds like American Express is still going after the $350,000. Let’s hope she gets healthier soon and gets her case resolved because I can’t bare to see her looking like that.

On Monday, March 16, 2009, Imus announced that he was diagnosed with stage two prostate cancer on his radio show, but stated that “his doctors will beat it.”

Early detection for prostate cancer usually has good results so I do hope his doctors will help him beat it. Best wishes to Don Imus!
