Halle Berry has reportedly broken her foot while filming in Spain.
According to reports, the Oscar-winning actress slipped and fell at a property she’s renting while shooting her latest project titled “Cloud Atlas”.

Being taken to the hospital after the incident, the TMZ report adds that doctors have put her foot in a cast and she was spotted leaving a hospital in a wheelchair.

Reports suggest that “Cloud Atlas” producers plan to shoot around Berry, using her stunt double as much as possible in the coming weeks to allow the star time to recover.

More sad news concerning Singer Lily Alen.

The British pop star  has been hospitalized with Septicemia just days after suffering her second miscarriage, spokesfolks for the “Smile” singer said Saturday.

Allen was around six months pregnant when she lost her baby earlier this week, just two years after she miscarried another child. Lily had been expecting the baby with her builder boyfriend, Sam Cooper. According to UK newspaper The Sun, she was rushed to hospital after complaining of stomach pains, but medics were unable to save the baby boy, who was three months premature. On Friday, doctors admitted the 25-year-old to a London hospital after she was diagnosed with septicemia, a potentially life-threatening condition characterized by bacteria in the blood resulting in fevers, chills, rapid breathing, and increased heart rate.

“Lily Allen is back in hospital, where she is being treated for septicamia,” says Allen’s publicist, who says the star is responding well to treatment and thanks fans for their messages of support.

“She is responding well to treatment and her condition continues to improve. Lily thanks everyone for their messages of support and again asks that she and partner Sam Cooper be left alone whilst she recovers.”

Earlier this week, a devastated Lily indicated that she was unwell to fans Twitter.

“I’m still very sick but the messages are helping me to be stronger. Thank you xx.”

Eva Longoria is okay after a car crash in Hollywood left her wheels spinning.
The Desperate Housewives actress Eva Longoria narrowly escaped serious injury after a car crash in Hollywood.

Law enforcement officials told TMZ that the smash-up occurred when another car unexpectedly turned in front of Longoria on Hollywood Blvd. Longoria was unable to avoid the other car and smash!

Luckily, neither Eva nor the other driver was seriously hurt. No one went to the hospital, although reports are that “very minor injuries” were sustained. The accident is under investigation, but early word is that Eva won’t be cited.

This isn’t the first time Longoria has been involved in a car crash: In 2006 the Range Rover she was riding in hit a Ford Taurus while she was on her way home from Ken Paves’ salon.

Longoria’s rep had no comment on the crash. The actress’ LA restaurant Beso is near the crash site — was she on her way home from dinner?

Oh no! Leona Lewis was given a horse from a dear friend. While attempting to ride it, it headbutted her and threw her to the ground causing the singer to suffer a split lip and facial injuries.

A source told Britain’s Daily Mirror newspaper:

“Leona has been riding since she was a child and has never had a fear of horses. So she was really shaken up when the horse turned on her. Something startled the horse and it flicked its head back and smacked Leona full in the face.

She was knocked flying by the force of it. Thankfully, she didn’t need any surgery but was told to stay at home and rest just in case she passed out with concussion.”

Leona has now been forced to postpone recording her second album after being ordered to rest. Better safe than sorry.

“She had been due in the studio to record but she felt shaken up so they had to cancel. “It has pushed everything back, but she’s such a hard worker she’ll easily make up for lost time.”

Hope she feels better!
