Celebrity Justice
You, Me and Samuel L. Jackson

Owen Wilson got a special hospital visit today from the one and only Samuel L. Jackson -- who knew they were buddies?


TMZ was outside of Cedars Sinai this afternoon as Samuel walked in to visit Wilson, and he was clearly taken aback by paparazzi presence.

Owen's brothers Luke and Andrew also checked in on the "Wedding Crashers" star, who was hospitalized yesterday afternoon for an undisclosed reason.

16. Dear Owen

Most people tend to forget that you guys are mere mortals ...Your lives is a far cry from the fictious world of movie-making and celebrity-mania...You guys are probably more average than the rest of us hard working slobs with the difference of having some money and a supposed lifestyle which creates a false sense of what day to day reality is really all about...

Owen, I feel sorry for what you are going through but millions die everyday from self-induced suicide as a means of escaping the sometimes harsh realities of modern day life...But you and I both know that is not an answer by any means...There are millions who would love to have your life with everything it has to offer, heartache and all, or maybe warts and all....But then, the way you feel, you would probably say, "you could have it, 'cause I don't want it"...Which at this time is quite a legitimate feeling....However my friend before you even attempt to heal from this dark hole or even try to escape, spare a thought for your family and friends, including my man Samuel L. Jackson...

What would we do without your dry humor (just a joke)...You have given us so much pleasure...This is not the time to end the show...There is still so much in you to give...But you know what, it's not about the paycheck, right? I know!!! (even though it helps) but rather it is about you also receiving something money can't buy and I believe I have the solution....(But when you are better we can discuss it)

Before I say another word...GET SOME REST...LET YOUR BODY HEAL...YOUR MIND AND SPIRIT WILL NEED A NEW LEASE, the old one just ran out... Meantime, let one of the guys get you 2 books for you to read while in Sinai....

THE PROPHET by KHALIL GIBRAN and a copy of the APOCRYPHA and read the WISDOM OF SOLOMON....

Take care of No.1 and remember you are blessed even though you don't you don't feel it right now... This episode too will pass...

Good luck and God bless you...

17. Owen had one simple request, "I respectfully ask that the media allow me to receive care and heal in private during this difficult time."

Despite this, your sleeze bag photographers set up camp outside the hospital he's being held at. Leave the guy alone. Surely there's some young starlett who would love to have your photogs chasing them around town begging for attention, but when someone asks to be left alone, have the decency to do it.

I give it 6 months until the paps are directly responsible for a Hollywood death. Maybe that will finally slow you down... though I doubt it.

I believe the Media is allowing Owen to receive care and heal.
Because they are in from of the hospital to watch those who come and go does not interfere with the care Owen is receiving.

You are here on TMZ to read about his ordeal after all as am I.
Owen did not expect to live of that I am sure but he has and will need to face life and the fact that many know bits and pieces of his story weather the press snap a picture or not.

It's part of the deal for anyone in that situation celebrity or not.
Through the help he will recieve he will find the tools to deal with that also.
