Baldwin Bucked Up -- Rushed to Hospital

TMZ has learned that actor Stephen Baldwin was rushed to a Texas hospital yesterday, after he was thrown from a real-life bucking bull during the taping of an upcoming reality show. You know what happens when you mess with the bull!
Stephen Baldwin
Sources from the set of "Ty Murray's Celebrity Bull Riding Challenge" tell TMZ that Baldwin broke a shoulder and a rib when a bad ride sent him crashing to the rodeo floor. Baldwin was treated and released from a hospital, and we're told that "he is already back on set in a sling." No bull!

The show, which is set to debut on CMT in August, follows nine Hollywood celebrities on location in Texas -- as they try to master the art of championship bullriding.

Baldwin isn't the first star to get feel the bull's wrath during production -- Leif Garrett was seriously roughed up just a day earlier. Shockingly, Vanilla Ice has remained unharmed!

17. Gina-if you knew anything about the sport, you'd be smart enough to realize that a 2000 lb. bull is NOT being abused by a 150 lb. man! Did you miss the part about the RIDER being sent to the hospital?!?!?!

24. He's obviously not riding a dairy COW in a bull riding contest. A cow is a female bovine that has had a calf. He most certainly could be riding a dairy breed bull. If you are going to bash someone for something you need to know what you're talking about.

25. Too bad it wasn't Alec Baldwin, he is a waste of human protoplasm.

27. I am sorry to hear about your accident Stephen, I hope your shoulder and rib heal very quickly.....God Bless....

28. Wow, I'm amazed at the negativity of so many people, and how happy some are when someone gets hurt. If you don't like a person(or in some opinions a whole family), that's fine, but to wish them harm is just wrong. All this makes me more aware of people who pick up guns for no particular reason.

Personally, Stephen, I hope you feel better soon, and kudos for being back on the set the next day. Glad to hear that your "testicle region wasn't hurt(?) and that the "Alec/Kim conspiracy"(?) is over. ???????????

29. Frickin Bleeding Hearts and NO that is not a dairy cow. That is a cross-bred beef cow that is used for rodeo purposes. If it were to serve any food service at all it would more than likely be beef. How are your leather shoes working for ya any ways? Dont be ignorant! Check out what animal by products are and who they help!

30. Go educate yourselves before you start on the 'these animals are so abused' load of bull. (pardon the pun) These animals are treated very well as they are the only source of income most stock contractors have.
