Director and Actor, Kevin Smith, has massive heart attack
From Kevin’s Facebook page: I was trying to do a killer standup special this evening but I might’ve gone too far. After the first show, I felt kinda nauseous. I threw up a little but it didn’t seem to help. Then I started sweating buckets and my chest felt heavy. Turns out I had a massive heart attack. The Doctor who saved my life at the #glendale hospital told me I had 100% blockage of my LAD artery (also known as “the Widow-Maker” because when it goes, you’re a goner). If I hadn’t canceled the second show to go to the hospital, the Doc said I would’ve died tonight. For now, I’m still above ground! But this is what I learned about myself during this crisis: death was always the thing I was most terrified of in life. When the time came, I never imagined I’d ever be able to die with dignity – I assumed I’d die screaming, like my Dad (who lost his life to a massive heart attack). But even as they cut into my groin to slip a stent into the lethal Widow-Maker, I was filled with a sense of calm. I’ve had a great life: loved by parents who raised me to become the individual I am. I’ve had a weird, wonderful career in all sorts of media, amazing friends, the best wife in the world and an incredible daughter who made me a Dad. But as I stared into the infinite, I realized I was relatively content. Yes, I’d miss life as it moved on without me – and I was bummed we weren’t gonna get to make #jayandsilentbobreboot before I shuffled loose the mortal coil.

Big Brother 19 winner gets his cameo on the Bold and the Beautiful.
Big Brother 19 meets Bold and the Beautiful spoilers with the first look at BB19 winner Josh Martinez on his guest arc on the CBS soap. Of course, the network is capitalizing on Josh’s catchphrase “meatballs” in his soapy appearance. Josh is the second Big Brother alum to appear this year. Jessica Graf has made a couple of appearances as a hostess at Il Giardino, the Forresters favorite eatery. In deference to her showmance with Cody Hickson, Jessica’s character name is Jody. As for Josh, it’s all about the meatballs.
Josh is a chef at Il Giardino
Sticking with the restaurant theme, this year’s Big Brother–Bold and the Beautiful crossover has Josh also at Il Giardino, and he’s dressed up in chef gear and serving meatballs. CBS shared behind the scenes photos of Josh with B&B’s Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton) and him at the door to Stage 31, where Bold films its episodes. Josh Martinez has scenes with Forrester patriarch Eric Forrester (John McCook) and also with the villain du jour, Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown).

Joe Jonas is engaged to Sansa Stark!
The DNCE frontman reportedly began dating Sophie Turner (who plays Sansa Stark on Game of Thrones) around one year ago, when they were spotted celebrating Halloween together and hanging out with Nick Jonas. Speaking of the Jonas Brothers, both Nick and Kevin are stoked about welcoming Turner to their family.
“Ahh! Congratulations to my brother… and sister in law to be on your engagement,” Nick tweeted with the same photo of Turner’s fancy new bling. “I love you both so much.”

Dad from “This Is Us” says he would never date another co star.
Before Ventimiglia was cast as one of the leads on NBC’s hit drama series This Is Us, the actor starred as Peter Petrelli on the sci-fi drama Heroes from 2006-10. While acting opposite Hayden Panettiere, who appeared as Claire Bennet on the Golden Globe-nominated show, the pair’s relationship turned romantic, thrusting the former couple into the limelight.
Reflecting on dating a previous costar in a new interview with Mr. Porter, Ventimiglia admitted he would “never do it again.”
“There are things that happen to you in your life that shape who you are. Everything I’ve been through from jobs to friendships to partnerships, everything has built me to who I am,” he said.
“You learn from it. You learn a better way of doing things. It wasn’t until my mid to late twenties that the job wears on you, relationships wear on you,” added Ventimiglia.
Still, he revealed he “wouldn’t change a thing.”
“When you get knocked over the head in life, it builds your perspective,” he added.
New “This Is Us” starts in two weeks!
There is a really great interview with him in People Magazine this week (where this story is lovingly borrowed from) … read more of it here: http://people.com/tv/milo-ventimiglia-talks-hayden-panettiere-dating-public-eye/
Selena Gomez undergoes kidney transplant
This story also lovingly borrowed from TMZ.com
Selena Gomez underwent a kidney transplant this summer, and the donor was her best friend.
Selena posted this pic post surgery of her and kidney donor Francia Raisa. She said, “I’m very aware some of my fans had noticed i was laying low for part of the summer and questioning why I wasn’t promoting my new music, which I was extremely proud of.”
Selena goes on … “So I found out I need to get a kidney transplant due to my Lupus and was recovering. It was what I needed to do for my overall health.”
