Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 09:35:02 GMT

It’s probably a weird coincidence but Madonna, Jamie Foxx and Heather Locklear each holed up in public places over the weekend, perhaps expecting they’d be photographed looking healthy, mobile and lucid.To varying degrees, these three icons of American music, movies and TV probably feel pressure to counteract reports and gossip that they’ve been debilitated by dire medical issues, infections or relapses into addictive, out-of-control behavior.Starting with Madonna, the “Vogue” singer was photographed on Sunday walking around her Upper East Side neighborhood in New York and chatting with a friend, according to the Daily Mail and a video posted by TikToker Lauren Conlin. Only 11 days earlier, the 64-year-old pop legend was reportedly found unconscious in her home, due to a serous bacterial infection, supposedly revived with the drug Narcan for unknown reasons, and rushed to a hospital, where she was intubated and spent several days in the ICU.madonna out ...

People may be moving to Florida in droves, but Troy Liggett and his husband are dreaming of fleeing.The Sunshine State they’ve called home since 2016 isn’t so sunny anymore, the Fort Lauderdale attorney says. Liggett, an Indiana native, and husband Marco Hernandez, a nurse from Texas, moved to South Florida knowing they’d find a warm welcome from the gay-friendly community.Now, seven years later, the state government has them not feeling so welcome, Liggett says.
