Last month my British bae Kate Beckinsale was rushed to the hospital while filming in Vegas. At the time, the only thing that we knew about the incident was that she injured her back. She posted a photo looking gawjus in a hospital bed. Kate was recently on the Late Late Show with James Corden. Kate told James that she wasn?t even filming a scene when she injured herself. Kate said she was getting dressed in her hotel room and when she bent over to pull up her leggings she heard her back pop like a ?guitar string snapping.? Kate said she couldn?t ?walk, lay down or sit down.? An ambulance came and that they had to roll Kate in a sheet to get her to the hospital. Below are a few more details via Today:
Well, having done eight or nine hundred action movies, I hurt myself putting on a pair of leggings in a hotel room, the Jolt star said.
While Corden said hed assumed Beckinsale had hurt herself by falling off a building or doing another crazy stunt on set, she told him she was actually filming an intense, emotional drama when she sustained her injury.
It felt like a kind of guitar string snapped. And everything was horrific, Beckinsale said. She added that the immediate pain was worse than having a baby.
Beckinsale said she tried to figure out how she could get to the hospital, but added she couldnt walk, lay down, sit down or do anything.
Eventually an ambulance came and they sort of rolled out a sheet and picked me up in it like a sort of sausage and put me on a gurney and then I went to the hospital and was given a lot of drugs, she said.
Beckinsale, who doesnt drink, said she quickly found out during her hospital stay what kind of a drunk she is.
?I?m not a ?do you know who I am, have you seen all my films? type, which is a huge relief because I?m really glad I?m not,? she said. ?But I am a ?everybody?s trying to steal my f ovaries person.

The way Kate recounted this story to James (video posted below) had me cracking up. Kate is hilarious. She is one of the few celebrities I follow on IG because she is so funny. I guess despite being extremely fit and looking youthful (supposedly without help) Kates body is telling her she is getting older. I have had my fair share of back injuries and my back going out. I know that sort of pain and couldnt wish it on my worse enemy. I also thought it was insane that she hadnt injured her back while doing some sort of stunt for an action movie which is what I thought had happened. Instead she sustained her injury by putting on a pair of leggings, quel shame. The fact that they had to roll Kate into a blanket and carry her out like sausage tells me it was a pretty bad strain.
I am glad my girl crush Kate is healthy and has mended over the last month. She looked great on the show and she has been up to her normal shenanigans on her Instagram, showing that her back is no longer injured. Hopefully, Kate has received some treatments and instructions to help her maintain great back health. On a side note, I am looking forward to seeing Dave Grohl do a drum battle with Kates really cute cat. That would definitely be entertaining.

Last week, the Washington Post published an op-ed co-authored by Prince Harry. The column was about saving the Okavango delta from a Canadian oil-drilling outfit and protecting the precious habitat within Africa. Harry?s piece landed well, from what I saw. There wasn?t much for the haters to cling to, and there?s even less for people to complain about now that big-name celebrities are joining Harry?s fight. Leonardo DiCaprio used his own social media and the social media of his environmental outfit, Re: Wild, to talk about what?s happening in with the Okavango.
Prince Harrys campaign to stop oil drilling in Africa has added some high-profile supporters. Leonardo DiCaprio, Forest Whitaker and Djimon Hounsou have joined the Duke of Sussex, 37, and leading conservationists in calling for an immediate suspension on oil and gas drilling in the Okavango River Basin, according to a press release from Re:wild.
The Okavango River Basin has a network of river systems traversing Angola, Botswana and Namibia which supplies water to nearly 1 million people as well as the regions wildlife population. It also encompasses the Okavango Delta, a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its biodiversity, and two vital Ramsar wetland sites.
Canadian oil and gas company Reconnaissance Energy Africa (ReconAfrica) began drilling the Okavango River Basin in late 2020 after they obtained a license for exploratory drilling across a 13,200-square-mile area despite concern from local communities.
DiCaprio, 46, shared an Instagram video asking fans to add their name to the open letter calling for an end to the drilling in the area.
Re:wild stands with the people of the Okavango River Basin, who depend on the health of the watershed for their survival, the caption said. ReconAfrica is poised to pollute their farms and destroy a beautiful landscape?one that benefits all life on Earth?forever. Join us by signing the open letter at the link in bio. Together, we can #SaveTheOkavango. For all wildkind.

I?m including some of Leo?s Instagram posts below. It?s mind-blowing that there even has to be a campaign to protect a UNESCO World Heritage site, but here we are. I wonder if DiCaprio and Harry have ever met? They don?t have much in common other than their environmental work, but I bet it would be an interesting meeting.

It?s one thing if an actor wants to go ?method? and authentically transform their body for a role. Think Tom Hanks in Philadelphia and Cast Away, Robert DeNiro in Raging Bull, Charlize Theron in Monster and Tully, etc. I understand that there are health issues with that kind of extreme weight gain or loss, but there is authenticity to their transformations which adds a lived-in quality to their performances. In recent years, actors have moved away from those kinds of transformations though, opting to just wear face prosthetics, fat suits, and more. Gary Oldman won an Oscar for playing a sh-tty, terrible version of Winston Churchill in a fat suit. Sarah Paulson is currently in American Crime Story: Impeachment, wearing a fat suit to play Linda Tripp. Jared Leto is wearing some kind of body-altering something in House of Gucci. And on and on.
It?s seriously gotten to the point where only young, thin, white actors are hired for every role and then they just use prosthetics and fat suits to get into character. This is because in Hollywood, apparently it would be the worst thing in the world to hire someone overweight, or hire someone in their 60s to play a character in their 60s, or to not constantly be surrounded by young, white and thin people at all times. I believe at some point, there will be more of a movement to call this out as the offensive ?fat drag? it is. Hopefully, there will also be a movement to simply cast movies and TV shows properly as well.
I bring all of this up because Renee Zellweger has been photographed in a fat suit, as she films a new project in Louisiana. The project: a miniseries called The Thing About Pam. It?s for network television, it will air on NBC. It?s based on the true story of convicted murderer Pam Hupp. Renee plays Hupp, a woman who is currently 63 years old. At the time of her conviction (the time in which Renee is playing), Hupp was about 57-58. Renee is 52. Hupp was also a bigger woman at the time, thus Renee?s fat suit.
Renee famously gained weight (about 20-30 pounds) to play Bridget Jones in the first two films and that still seems to hang over her head in a bizarre way. Renee has also said that her doctors told her she shouldn?t do that kind of weight gain again, so just don?t play overweight characters?? But that?s the catch, of course Renee wasn?t merely an actress for hire, badly miscast by some douchebag producer. No, of course not. She?s the executive producer on this series, so she cast her skinny self with the knowledge that she would do fat drag. Enough.
Renee Zellweger gets back into frumpy 'fat suit' and prosthetics as she continues work on new true crime series https://t.co/AYFynXCadF
