Curbed by the fear of experiencing a panic attack in a public place, Jacqui Kenny avoids airplanes and, generally, destinations outside of her comfort zones. “My main fear is flying,” she says.

He admitted that when he gets home each night he makes himself a single Old Fashioned (a whiskey drink) to unwind, but he's ...

Barbara Streisand Cloned her dog, twice.

Fans joined Barbra Streisand in mourning the death of her beloved dog, Samantha, last fall. After all, the 14-year-old Coton du Tulear had been a constant presence at the legendary singer-actress’s concerts and public appearances, as well as on Instagram.
Turns out, Samantha lives on... well, sort of. In a new interview with Variety, Streisand revealed that her two new pups, Miss Violet and Miss Scarlett, were cloned via cells extracted from Samantha’s mouth and stomach.
“They have different personalities,” Streisand said. “I’m waiting for them to get older so I can see if they have [Samantha’s] brown eyes and seriousness.”
Her third dog is a relative of Samantha’s, named Miss Fanny, a nod to Streisand’s iconic Broadway and movie role in “Funny Girl.” Incidentally, the breeder who brought Streisand the pup had named her own dog Funny Girl.

Ellen DeGeneres dedicates hospital room to Jimmy Kimmel’s son

Get your tissues ready. Ellen DeGeneres honored her friend Jimmy Kimmeland his son in the best possible way. “We are friends, and I write to you a lot saying, ‘Once again, brilliant monologue,’ ” DeGeneres, 60, told Kimmel on Tuesday’s episode. “Everything you’re doing on the show — you’re using your voice for good, and you’re saying a lot of important things.” Kimmel, 50, replied, “I do want to say thank you to you because you were very kind when my son went through a couple of heart surgeries to raise a huge amount of money, you and your viewers raised a million dollars! It meant a lot to us.” Kimmel has been a vocal champion of children’s healthcare since his son, Billy, was born with a heart defect in April 2017 and has urged Congress to restore the Children’s Health Insurance Program. “You’re such a great guy, and that was so emotional, to see you go through that. But when anything, the latest — the school shooting — you get very emotional, and I love that about you,” DeGeneres quipped, prompting Kimmel to chuckle. “I’m tearing up right now,” he admitted. “It’s embarrassing to me! I pinch my hand … it doesn’t work.” He had to discreetly wipe his eye when DeGeneres finally bestowed him with his “good surprise.” “We called our friends at Children’s Hospital LA,” DeGeneres said. “We have named one of the rooms of the Heart Institute floor in honor of Billy … That will forever be the Billy Kimmel room. And thanks to everyone at the Children’s Hospital of L.A., including several of Billy’s nurses, who are here in the audience today.” Visibly moved but still quick on his feet, Kimmel joked to the crowd, “You should be at work!” /> Get your tissues ready.
