OHMYGOSSIP — Lisa Vanderpump’s family “weren’t thrilled” when she signed up to star in ‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’.
The 56-year-old restaurateur signed up to join the Bravo reality show in 2010 and initially felt happy that most of her loved ones back in England wouldn’t get to see the show – but that’s changed as the programme has grown increasingly more popular and she has her own spin-off show, ‘Vanderpump Rules’.
She admitted: “[My family] weren’t thrilled.
“Initially I felt a little sense of security in the fact that the show [didn’t air in England], but it’s becoming quite big over there. And now it’s even more in their face because I have a show called ‘Vanderpump Rules’ and that’s my family’s name.”
While Lisa “doesn’t care” about having her life constantly on camera, she admits she can’t always watch the show back as having her co-stars turn on her has been very painful, but she is thankful producers always try to show the truth behind every incident.
Asked the hardest thing about doing the show, she told the new issue of AdWeek magazine: “I think when the women have attacked me. That’s devastated me. I’m not a victim, but it’s been very hurtful. When they accuse you of stuff, I mean, that’s been hard.
“Sometimes I haven’t been able to watch it. Or when they’re lying about you, and it’s out there.
“But we’re lucky enough to have a production company that has integrity–I know it’s a rarity in this world–and tries to show the accurate story. And if they think somebody is bat-s**t crazy and they’re accusing you of something, they’re going to show it. And luckily, the audience sees the truth.”
Lisa considered quitting the show this year, but admitted she keeps returning because she will always be thankful for the opportunities the programme has opened up for her.
She said: “After the first year, I said I wasn’t coming back. After four years, I said I wasn’t coming back. I think I’ve always said that.
“This year it was a really, really difficult decision. It was just not about money. It was about whether I could go through what I went through again. I didn’t think I could. And I still don’t know if I made the right decision.
“But after a couple of weeks talking to them, I went, ‘All right, I’ll do it–so help me, God’.
“I remember our showrunner jumped up and kissed me and said, ‘OK, you won’t regret it!’ And I said, ‘I might, but I can never forget what the show has given me.’
“I mean, would I be at the United Nations? Would I be at Congress? Would I be starting Vanderpump Pets? Would I be able to fight Yulin? Would I be able to have the Vanderpump Dog Rescue?”

OHMYGOSSIP — Demi Lovato wants a real MMA fight.
The 24-year-old singer has been undergoing mixed martial arts training for over a year and has made a number of enquiries as to taking her love of the sport even further.
Jay Glazer, who owns the Unbreakable gym – which is frequented by MMA fighters including Chuck Liddell and Cung Le – said of Demi’s request: “She’s brought it up to us a million times.”
And the fitness guru thinks Demi would hold her own in a professional boy as he thinks she is “the real deal”.
He told TMZ: “She throws elbows better than most of the UFC guys that come in there.
She’s definitely one of our fighters without a doubt.
“She’s more violent than most, and then she gets mad if we don’t get after her or harder, she’s definitely one of our fighters, without a doubt.
“She has a mind set, I wish I could bottle up her mind set and sell it to all the guys in the UFC, she’s a bad little lioness dude. Don’t mess with her.”
The ‘Cool for the Summer’ singer – who was romantically linked with MMA Guilherme ‘Bomba’ Vasconcelos fighter this summer after splitting from long-term boyfriend Wilmer Valderrama – certainly has plenty of time to train for an MMA bout as she recently revealed she is planning to “take a break” from her career in the new year.
She posted on Twitter: “So excited for 2017. Taking a break from music and the spotlight.. I am not meant for this business and the media … It doesn’t feel worth it anymore. I’d rather do charity work tbh [to be honest] (sic)”

OHMYGOSSIP — The Who and Roger Waters played the final night of the inaugural Desert Trip music festival on Sunday (09.10.16).
Frontman for The Who, Roger Daltrey, and guitarist Pete Townshend were in high spirits as they took to the stage at the festival in Indio, California, which has been referred to as “Oldchella”, due to the advanced age of the performing acts including The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Sir Paul McCartney, Neil Young and Roger Waters.
Pete quipped: “Well, here the f**k we are. You all come to watch old people dance?”
During their performance Pete dedicated ‘The Kids Are Alright’ to the “young ones” in the audience and added: “We love you for coming to see us.”
Their set included ‘My Generation’, ‘You Better You Bet’, ‘Eminence Front’, The Acid Queen’ and ‘Pinball Wizard’.
They also played ‘I Can See for Miles’, their first hit in the US in 1967 and jokingly compared themselves to today’s popstars.
Pete said: “Such a long f***ing time ago. We were 1967’s version of Adele or Lady Gaga or Rihanna or Bieber.”
He added: “Roger and I are so glad to be out here at our age. And I couldn’t do it without Roger.”
They were the opening act for Roger Waters, who wowed the crowd with a set of Pink Floyd songs, beginning with a selection from the 1973 record ‘Dark Side of the Moon’.

OHMYGOSSIP — Niall Horan can’t wait to go on tour.
The 23-year-old singer is planning his own series of solo concerts after his debut album comes out next year and is hoping to fit in some sightseeing, which he rarely got to do due with One Direction due to the overwhelming fan attention.
He tweeted: “Just laying here watching and TV and thinking . Really looking forward to going to cities and maybe seeing them this time . Hahaha .
“Instead of being stuck in the hotel room and playing PlayStation (sic).”
However, while Niall is concentrating on his own music for now, with the recent release of his debut single ‘This Town’, he is looking forward to reuniting with his 1D bandmates, Liam Payne, Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson, for some live shows in the future.
When asked during a recent interview on ‘Most Requested Live with Romeo’ if he had to choose between playing a winning game at Augusta, one of the most famous golf courses in the world, or getting back on stage with One Direction, golf-enthusiast Niall insisted there was no need to make a choice.
He said: “There’s going to be plenty more One Direction shows, that’s a guarantee so it’s not a case of one more show. There’s definitely more than one more 1D show coming up, that’s a fact.”
And Harry recently called One Direction the “most important, greatest thing that ever happened to me” and said he hopes the band will decide to reunite at some stage.
When asked what the future holds for 1D, he said: “I don’t know. When we started people always asked, ‘Where do you think you’ll be in five years?’ It’s a difficult question to answer.
“I would never say we’ll never do anything ever again but it’s good for us to be exploring different things.
“Maybe at some point everyone will want to do something again but it’ll be better if it happens naturally like, ‘Hey, we all really want to do this again’. If that were to happen it would be amazing.
“I would never rule that out. It’s the most important, greatest thing that ever happened to me, being in that band. It completely changed my life.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Zara Larsson has taken up yoga.
The 18-year-old singer/songwriter is embracing a healthier lifestyle after trying out the discipline for the first time over the weekend.
She tweeted: “Just went to yoga for the first time and I now only wanna talk about zen, vegan diets, healthy juices and finding inner balance, thanks.”
Zara is not the only celebrity yoga fan and Anna Kendrick recently revealed her ‘Up in the Air’ co-star George Clooney showed her some of his moves.
She said: “The hotel we were staying at had yoga classes, so I thought I might be good at that, I took dance as a kid. And on set, I was like, ‘yeah, I was doing this move with my leg over my shoulder’. Bragging, basically.
“And George said, ‘can you touch your head to your knees?’ I was like, no one can do that. And he did it right there in front of me. He basically folded himself in half. It’s really impressive. It was like, OK – so you’re better than me at everything.”
Meanwhile, supermodel Elle Macpherson tries to fit in some yoga every day.
She said: “I feel my best when I spend 45 minutes each morning doing some sport; I run, do yoga, go paddle boarding or hiking. Once I’m outdoors, breathing the fresh air, I feel like I’ve accomplished something.”
And Jessica Alba is a fan of hot yoga.
She said: “If I work out four times, I consider it a successful week. But it’s typically more like two to three days a week because that’s what I have time for. I take Spin or hot yoga classes in the morning, and I sacrifice sleep to fit them in.
“For me, the benefits of exercise are more mental than physical. Working out takes away that little edge so that I feel happier and more productive, and my brain can get kick-started.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Bryan Cranston has opened up about his traumatic childhood.
The ‘Breaking Bad’ actor’s father Joe abandoned the family when Bryan was 11 years old and his mother Peggy turned to alcohol to cope, leading Bryan – who has two sisters – to be sent away to live on his grandparents’ farm and he is still “dealing with the pain” from his youth.
He told the Sunday Times: “There’s still a lot of pain I’m dealing with. It’s worse than if they died in a car crash, because they were still there physically, somewhere. My mum and dad up through 10 years old were really wonderful, that’s what was so awful about it. My mother was engaging and my dad was my coach; we did things together and he brought home a donkey for us to play with. Then it all disappeared.
“He chose not to be with us or see us or be a father. My mother chose to become an alcoholic and drown her sorrows and sadness and resentment. She was like a ghost of herself. And no one ever explained why he left.”
However, Bryan, 60, reconciled with both his parents before they died and revealed he found a note from his father, which read: “The highlight of my life was when my children forgave me.”
Speaking about dealing with his mother’s Alzheimer’s disease, Bryan added: “I feel far more sorry for those people who had really good relationships with a parent and then, all of a sudden, in a matter of a few months, that person slips away. That’s cruelty. With me, it was more fortunate that the disconnect happened when I was 13 years old.”

“You make me more proud than you’ll ever know, and I feel so grateful that we get to experience so much by each other’s side.
“Can’t believe you’re 20!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love ya miss ya kiss ya.”
Anwar, 17, chose to share a picture of Bella as a toddler, adding the simple caption: “sis b’s birthday. love you.”
Bella’s friends from the fashion world opted for slightly more up-to-date photos to share with their birthday greetings.
Kylie Jenner, 19, posted a picture taken from a Vogue shoot they undertook last year, and simply wrote “Happy Birthday @bellahadid” along with a heart emoji.
Supermodel Naomi Campbell, 46, shared a picture of herself and Bella looking close in a restaurant, staring at the camera.

She wrote: “20 years ago with the woman who birthed me. I love you #20 (sic)”

OHMYGOSSIP — Blac Chyna’s mother urged her to be a “single mom again”.
The 28-year-old make-up artist – who has a three-year-old son, King Cairo, with ex-boyfriend Tyga – turned to her mum Tokyo Toni for support after her fiance Rob Kardashian disappeared and blocked her number following an explosive argument.
And Toni told her daughter – who is due to give birth to Rob’s baby next month – she felt the sock designer had too many issues to be able to love her properly, and she should seriously consider raising their baby by herself.
Toni said: “My advice to you would be not to move in with him, stop communicating about his issues because he don’t care himself. Just like you have to love yourself before you can love somebody else. So he can’t love you the way he’s supposed to.
“You just need to go ahead and be a single mom again, it’s just simple as that. You gotta believe you know that you gonna be alright. Have your baby, be happy, that’s my advice.”
And Chyna – who has been living apart from Rob – admitted she was unsure how much longer she could cope with their “yo-yo” relationship.
Speaking on ‘Rob & Chyna’ in scenes which aired on Sunday (09.10.16), she said: “I just feel like it’s a yo-yo game with me and Rob and I don’t know how much longer I can do this because I know once the baby comes things are definitely going to change.”
Despite Rob’s disappearance, Chyna decided to attend his grandmother MJ’s birthday celebration in San Diego without him, and while out at the family dinner, she discovered the 29-year-old star had also blocked his mother Kris Jenner and sisters from contacting him.
She had a heart-to-heart with his older sister, Kim Kardashian West, about how “frustrating” her relationship with Rob can be because he “really thinks sometimes” that she doesn’t love him as she isn’t as affectionate as he is.
Kim, 35, urged Chyna to talk to Rob but admitted his problems all stemmed from “within himself”.
She said: “We’ve all tried to come at him in different ways and with our own personalities and he’s not gone for any of it. So it’s nothing that any of us have done, it’s really within himself. I just hope he gets it together for the baby.”
Rob eventually reappeared and told Kris he’d been in Las Vegas and hadn’t wanted to hear from anyone, prompting his mother to tearfully urge him to be more responsible.
She told him: “I just want you to be responsible because you’re going to have a baby and you can’t just leave town.
“All I need is, ‘Mom I’m good, don’t worry, I love you’ and that would’ve been one little text.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Madonna’s stalker is “done” with her.
Former firefighter Robert Linhart was arrested twice outside the ‘4 Minutes’ hitmaker’s apartment in 2010 and sentenced to three years probation in 2013 over his attentions towards the star.
However, he says he is now “disgusted” with the 58-year-old singer after reading about her decision to take legal action against the owners of her apartment building after they enforced strict rules about people being there when she was away.
He blasted: “How dare Madonna think she rules the world?
“I’m no longer in love. She just thinks she can do whatever she wants.
“I’m done with her. And now that I’m free again, I’m going to travel.”
Robert – whose probation ended earlier this year – originally felt a connection to Madonna after meeting her in Prague and then continuing to run into her “all over Europe”.
That prompted him to want to profess his love to her outside her home, via wooden boards he carried that bore slogans such as “Madonna, I need you!” and “Tell me yes or no. If it’s yes, my dream will come true. If it’s no, I will go. XXX.”
He added to the New York Post newspaper: “I guess I got my answer. She didn’t want to meet me.”
And Robert’s lawyer, Peter Gleason, insisted his client should never have been arrested as he was only giving Madonna “the attention she craved”.
He said: “Madonna thinks the sun rises and falls on her tuchus.
“Just because you’re a celebrity doesn’t mean you don’t have to follow the rules.
“[Robert] gave Madonna the attention she has craved for the last 40 years. It should not have ended up in his arrest.
“He was a fan.That’s like arresting a 13-year-old girl who stands out front of Justin Bieber’s house.”
The ‘Material Girl’ singer was reported last week as having filed a case against One West 64th Street for enforcing rules which forbid her from allowing people including her children Lourdes, 19, Rocco, 16, Mercy, 10, and David, 11, as well as her staff, into a second unit she owns in the block and staying when she is not there.
The ‘Music’ hitmaker has insisted the owners knew Madonna’s status and lifestyle and did not object to letting others stay when she first moved into the property 12 years ago, four years before she bought the second apartment.

OHMYGOSSIP — Lottie Moss has bought a herself a BMW after crashing her last car.
The 18-year-old model – the half-sister of iconic supermodel Kate Moss – took to Snapchat to tell her followers that she had splashed out on a £13,499 vehicle.
She said: “So today guys I am getting a new car – kinda buzzing because I crashed my last one.”
And over the weekend, she also shared a picture of the car on Twitter, where the price tag was clearly visible, and wrote: “Picking up my new baby in three days.”
Meanwhile, it was recently reported that Lottie has rekindled her romance with headhunter Sam Prince, who she previously dated in 2014.
However, Sam – who is close pals with the cast of E4’s ‘Made in Chelsea’ – has been unfaithful to the blonde beauty in the past and so Lottie will be entering the relationship with some caution.
A source previously told The Sun newspaper: “Lottie and Sam have history but It’s not overly positive. They dated two years ago but Sam wasn’t faithful. They have recently rekindled their relationship and although it’s early days, Lottie’s hoping Sam will behave himself.”
Lottie’s last relationship was with school friend, Josh Goldin, and ended a few months ago.
Lottie was signed by Storm Models agency when she turned 16 and has appeared in shoots for magazine Teen Vogue and Dazed and Confused and also shot campaigns for Red Valentino and Calvin Klein.
She was first spotted when she was a bridesmaid at Kate’s wedding to rocker Jamie Hince in 2011.
The two models share a father, Peter Moss, who divorced Kate’s mother Linda in 1987 when Kate was 13.

OHMYGOSSIP — Ryan Lochte is engaged.
The Olympic swimmer got down on one knee and asked his girlfriend, Playboy model Kayla Rae Reid, to marry him over the weekend.
Alongside a picture of the pair kissing on top of the Malibu Canyon in Los Angeles, in which a large diamond ring is placed on his partner’s wedding ring finger, Ryan wrote: “Memories forever!!! #thelochtes #LA (sic)”
The blonde beauty added that she was “speechless” by the adorable proposal.
She commented: “Speechless. Absolutely beautiful. So in love with YOU.(sic)”
The engagement comes a month after the 32-year-old athlete’s ‘Dancing With the Stars’ debut was interrupted when two protesters stormed the stage on September 12.
However, Ryan wasn’t going to let that get in the way of him proposing despite his family thinking it could hurt their relationship.
He previously told USA TODAY Sports: “My family says, ‘Don’t you think it’s a little too soon?’ I’m like, ‘Can you put a time on love? Can you?’
“When I realised this was ‘the one’ was when she stuck behind me through this. She still loves me and she’s still right there with me.”
Ryan was on a mission to win the public over on the American ballroom show after he created controversy over the summer when he lied about being robbed by armed police during the Rio Games.
Two furious individuals lunged towards the floor while Ryan and his professional partner Cheryl Burke were receiving feedback from the judges on their foxtrot to the song ‘Call Me Irresponsible’.
The show came to an abrupt halt and quickly cut to an ad break before the protesters, who were wearing white anti-Lochte T-shirts, were thrown out of the studio by security.
Speaking after the incident, Ryan said: “It’s hard. [It felt like] someone reached inside and ripped my heart out.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Perrie Edwards appears to mock Zayn Malik’s sexual prowess in Little Mix’s new single.
The 23-year-old singer was left devastated when Zayn abruptly called off their engagement last year but reportedly gets her own back with the track ‘Shout Out To My Ex’.
According to The Sun, lyrics include, “I hope she gettin’ better sex, Hope she ain’t fakin’ it like I did, babe,’ which could be a reference to Zayn’s new girlfriend Gigi Hadid.
And after Zayn, 23, had the tattoo of a cartoon Perrie removed from his bicep recently, she sings: “Guess I should say thank you, For the ‘hate yous’ and the tattoos, Oh baby I’m cool by the way, Ain’t sure I loved you anyway.”
Speaking previously about the track, Jade Thirlwall, 23, said: “‘Shout Out To My Ex’ is a song that we’re sure loads of people can relate to.
“It’s all about moving on after a relationship ends to bigger and better things, and leaving the past where it should be.”
And Jesy Nelson, 25, added: “I think it’s always easier to write about your experiences through music because more people can relate to them anyway.
“It is a lot more mature, this album. There’s a lot of things that have been said that perhaps nobody has heard yet, if you know what I mean.”
Although, Zayn started dating supermodel Gigi, 21, after his split with Perrie, he later penned the single ‘It’s You’ about the ‘Black Magic’ hitmaker.
He said at the time: “I just felt like I needed to put myself out there on that just because it was a form of therapy for me and it did help get me through some stuff.”
Meanwhile, Perrie has now moved on with actor Luke Pasqualino, 26, and was spotted passionately kissing him at her bandmate Leigh Anne Pinnock’s 25th birthday bash over the weekend.
A source told the Daily Mirror: “They snuck away to a corner and weren’t making it obvious to everyone else at the party.”
And it was recently claimed that Perrie is finally over Zayn and excited to move on with Luke.
A source said: “Luke is everything Perrie craved from Zayn, and she’s finally ready to commit to a relationship for the first time since their split.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Celine Dion has never been with another man apart from her husband.
The 48-year-old singer was left devastated when spouse René Angélil died of cancer in January and she isn’t ready to move on yet.
She said: “I love him. I’m still in love with him.”
Asked on ‘CBS Sunday Morning’ if she hoped to fall in love again, she added: “Not now. I’m still married to him. I’ve never kissed another man in my life.”
But Celine – who has children René-Charles, 14, and five-year-old twins Nelson and Eddy with her late husband – insisted she still has a lot of “love” in her life.
She said: “I love. I love. I love him. I’m still in love with him. And I have the love of my children. I have the love of my fans. I love the people that I work with. So, my life is not empty of love.
“I go to bed with him and I come onstage with him, and…so, I’m still married to him.”
The ‘Think Twice’ hitmaker was just 12 years old when she met René, who became her manager.
And she remembered her spouse, who was 38 at the time, looked “very beautiful” and she appreciated the fact he didn’t treat her like a child.
She recalled: “I thought he looked very beautiful. He looked great. I felt confident that this man was not treating me as a ‘Oh, hi, little pumpkin’ or ‘Hi, little sweetie’ or like a little baby.”
Celine found it difficult watching her husband suffer in the months leading to his death, so has taken comfort from knowing he is no longer in pain.
She said: “Before he left, it was very, very difficult for all of us – for me, especially, and my children – to see the man of my life die a little bit more every day.
“The man of my life was my partner, and we were one. So, when he stopped suffering, I said to myself, ‘He’s OK, and he deserves not to suffer.’ ”
Celine was 19 and René 45 when they started dating, and got engaged in 1991, three years before they tied the knot.

OHMYGOSSIP — Sheryl Crow learned to put herself first after being diagnosed with breast cancer.
The ‘All I Wanna Do’ hitmaker was stunned to be told she had the disease after a routine mammogram in 2006 and admits her battle taught her a “big lesson” and made her change her priorities.
She said: “I was the last person who I thought would have been diagnosed with breast cancer.
“Even though I knew I was going to live, it stopped me in my tracks.
“The cancer dictated that I look at my life and redefine how I was living and the way I was putting everyone before me. I was constantly trying to make people happy. There was a really big lesson in that for me.”
The 54-year-old singer is now cancer-free but has never discussed her illness with her adopted sons, Wyatt, nine, and Levi, six, because she doesn’t want to frighten them.
She told Parade magazine: “My kids are six and nine. I have not really spoken to them about mommy having breast cancer.
“I don’t think they would be able to understand that mommy had a life-threatening disease. I’m a single mom. It could incite some fear.
“There will come a day for me to say, ‘There was a time where I was diagnosed with an illness that kills some people, but mine is a story of hope.’
“I’m practically a poster child for early detection and there’s a lot of great news in that.”
Sheryl wants her sons to grow up to be “caring and compassionate” and will tell them about her past eventually.
She said: “I try to raise my boys with a sense of overall gratitude at all times and a respect for the planet and for the people around them. So I want to raise caring, stable, compassionate boys.
“There will be a time for learning about mom’s past. I actually remember the day I realised that my parents actually had lives before I was born.
“I don’t think my kids are at that point yet where they think that there was ever a life before they existed.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Jonah Hill researches his movies by making prank calls.
The 32-year-old actor used to make and record joke phone conversations when he was in college, and admitted he still makes spoof calls today in an effort to develop his characters without people realising his true identity.
He admitted: “What’s interesting is that I still do it now all the time.
“I do it to get into character. I’m now recognisable in some ways, so I can’t really try out a character in real life, [and] the closest version of trying out a character in real life is playing a version of it over the phone.
“Customer service is the best because they talk to you with real patience.
“I’ll just ask about different products, and complain about different products in the way that I think the character would complain about those products.”
But Jonah insists he feels “bad” for the other person on the line and will always “buy something” at the end of the call.
He said: “I usually buy something at the end. I feel bad.”
In ‘The Wolf of Wall Street’, Jonah had to don prosthetic teeth to play Donnie Azoff, and the mouthpiece changed the way he spoke, adding a distinct lisp, and he admitted making prank calls helped him find the right voice for his character.
Speaking to David Remnick at the New Yorker Festival, he said: “I had to learn how to re-talk with them, and then it helped it just sound like this very specific way of speaking, which I really liked, and which we ended up using.
“I don’t have many props, but I still have those teeth.”
David joked: “You can use them to call Best Buy.”
Jonah replied: “I did! That’s how I got used to talking with them on.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Joni Mitchell still faces a “hard uphill fight” back to full health.
The 72-year-old folk singer was hospitalised in March 2015 after suffering a brain aneurysm, and while it was previously reported she would make a full recovery, her friend and former boyfriend David Crosby says she is still “getting better”.
He said: “She’s getting better. It’s a hard uphill fight, but she’s a very tough girl.”
The 75-year-old singer believes the ‘Big Yellow Taxi’ hitmaker is the “greatest living songwriter” and the best of their generation.
He told Event magazine: “I don’t think there’s any question that when they look back in 100 years, they’ll say she was the best of us. It’s her or Bob [Dylan], and Bob can’t sing! I think she’s our greatest living songwriter.”
David’s comments come a few weeks after Joni made her first public appearance since her hospitalisation.
Photographs of her at a Chick Corea concert at the Catalina Bar and Grill in Los Angeles on August 20 were posted on her official website, along with the caption: “We are thrilled to see Joni out and about again!”
After suffering an aneurysm, Joni was unable to speak for some time, but by June of that year she was undertaking daily physical therapy and left hospital the following month.
Details of her subsequent recovery have been scarce since then, but in October, her friend and conservator Judy Collins said Joni was making “good progress”.
She wrote on Facebook: “I have just heard from a close mutual friend that Joni is walking, talking, painting some, doing much rehab every day, and making good progress. I have another friend who went through something similar – it does take a long time.”
