According to WebMD, John Travolta's son (Jett Travolta), probably did not have seizures due to a childhood disease known as Kawasaki disease.
Now that the media has been reporting on the previously unheard of Kawasaki disease, the masses are starting to finally get word of this very deadly disease (Kawasaki). Personally, before hearing about Jett Travolta's death, I had thought Kawasaki was nothing more than a motorcycle company that tries to get in on the car-making market (probably doing better than GM).
So did Kawasaki Disease Kill Jett Travolta?
Big names in the medical industry (I could throw a name out there, but do you really care about some random name with MD after it?) say that Kawasaki Disease did not cause the death of Jett Travolta, the son of the ever-so famous John Travolta.
So what caused Jett Travolta's Seizure?
Despite being rejected by Tom Cruise's "Scientology" - Jett suffered from se... read more

Hilary Duff, who's often videotaped by paparazzi when hitting the gym, boasts a healthy diet plan and great workout ethic.
Her every move is captured in a camera lens, which can be stressful if you're having a chubby day. Due to the fame, Hillary became obsessed with getting her body in perfect shape.
Hilary Lost Weight - That's Good Right?
Nope, she got criticized for that too. "Everybody speculates that you're not eating or are doing drugs. You're damned if you do, and you're damned if you don't," claims Duff. She dropped her strict protein and vegetable diet and leveled off to a perfectly mixed diet.
Hilary Duff's Diet
She added fruit to her protein and veggie diet. Here's an example of a typical day...
Breakfast
- Kashi cereal with 2 percent milk. Or, substitute egg whites with feta cheese.
- Latte with 2% milk.
Lunch
- Grilled chicken Caesar Salad mixed with 1 tbsp reduced fat dressing... read more

For those who are struggling to keep up with their beach body, don't think you're the only one with the problem. Even celebrities like Matthew McConaughey, who have no responsibilities other than doing a movie every few years, have trouble sticking to their beach body.
Matthew McConaughey, who is well known for running around on the beach with his shirt off and thinking he's cool, was recently photographed not looking all that great. He seems to have lost his six pack (side note, his hair looks all kinds of messed) and although his body isn't terrible, it's not how it used to be.
Here's a picture of what Matthew McConaughey looks like now:

People Magazine recently released their list of the most beautiful people and Ashley Olson was featured toward the top. Mary-Kate, her younger sister (by 2 hours), did not make the list.
But they look identical
Although Mary-Kate and Ashley were able to fool us all into thinking Michelle Tanner was played by one person, they're "identicalness" has slightly faded. While Ashley is really skinny, Mary-Kate is downright skin and bones.
Over-doing the Skinniness
In my opinion, the primary reason that Ashley graced the charts and Mary-Kate took a beating is due to Mary-Kate's anorexic binges which climaxed in 2005. Her face looks bony and frail. She almost looks like she has a disease. I feel bad being so critical, but she's ruined her look (she made the choice).
Skinnier isn't always better
This silent statement by People magazine shows that skinnier is not always more attractive. When looking to lose weight, be sure that your weight ... read more

It has only been six weeks since Halle gave birth to a little berry and she's already slimmed down to her old body. At the age of 41, she's managed to change herself from a Pregnant Bohemith, to a Hot Mom - in just six weeks.
How did Halle slim down?
First off, while she was pregnant, she didn't let herself become a whale. She obviously wasn't going crazy at the gym, but she still managed to keep up with some of her fitness routines. She stayed active with yoga, swimming, and lifting light weights - along with a healthy diet. She had a cool fitness plan too.
The 5-Factor Fitness Plan
The plan was developed by Harley Pasternak and involves both exercise and dieting. Although I don't know all the secrets of the 5-factor fitness plan, I've heard it's a very easy plan to follow - I would have expected Halle to do something more difficult, but whatever. The 5-Factor Fitness Plan involves a 25 minute exercise program that should be performed 5 times a we... read more
