Dr. Drew has a long history with the famous comedian and has helped him get treatment several times for his substance abuse struggles, and tells us he and Andy's loved ones are scared "to death" about his situation, adding ... "This is a life-threatening illness. It's a progressive illness that ends in death."

"He and his family are very appreciative of everyone's kind words and well wishes," J.J. said.

Aubrey O’Day had a recent medical scare ... and that's the reason she had to skip the Danity Kane reunion show Wednesday in Los Angeles, a stop on the group's comeback tour.

Andy Dick may have overdosed on crack earlier this week ... but, we've learned he actually drinks alcohol more often than he uses drugs -- with vodka being his drink of choice.

Multiple sources who have known Andy for years tell TMZ ... the comedian can easily drink more than a fifth of vodka a day ... taking swigs basically from the time he wakes up until the time he eventually hits the hay.

We're told he never has to pay for his alcohol ... because enablers around him will always provide it to him -- making it easy for the troubled comedian to get hammered.

Ex-NBA player Jason Collins -- the league's first openly gay player -- just opened up on his serious health battle ... revealing he was diagnosed with Stage 4 glioblastoma, "one of the deadliest forms" of brain cancer.

Lili Reinhart’s keeping it real ... revealing she was finally told she has endometriosis after undergoing surgery -- a hard-won answer that came only after years of doctors brushing her off.

In an IG post Thursday, the actress shared pics from the hospital after her laparoscopic surgery ... explaining she’d seen multiple urologists, gynecologists, and hit up three hospitals, yet not one doctor brought up endometriosis. Instead, she was told last year she had interstitial cystitis -- and there was no cure.

It wasn’t until she saw two different pelvic floor therapists that endometriosis was even floated as a possible cause of her pain -- which pushed her to demand an MRI -- finally leading to the real diagnosis.

T.J. Watt experienced a health scare at the Pittsburgh Steelers' practice facility on Wednesday ... and was hospitalized with a lung issue.

The troubled comedian invited a TMZ photographer into his L.A. home Wednesday and he straight-up told us he’s not going to rehab -- offering up that answer only after he first posed the question hypothetically to himself, his buddies, and back to us -- even though we’re the ones who brought it up.

Kelly Osbourne isn't backing down to social media trolls commenting on her appearance since her dad died. She's got 3 words for them ... "go f*** yourself."

The British singer and actress delivered the apropos message in a now-deleted Instagram story. She outed some of her followers for writing things like, "Are you ill?" or "Get off Ozempic" or "You don't look right" in response to her appearance.

But Kelly has been in the public eye since she was a teenager, and she says it's unfair for people online -- some of whom she says are "grown-ass women" who "look like they have weight struggles of their own" -- to compare her 41-year-old body to the one she had at 18.

Apparently, Dynzell Sigers would rather die than be a short king ... because the Georgia man went through months of pain and therapy to have his limbs dramatically lengthened to be taller.

Sigers stopped by "TMZ Live" Wednesday, and he revealed the procedure's possible side effects include death. Check out the video ... he talks about doctors breaking bones in the leg and inserting a rod to connect the broken pieces. Over time the rod is stretched, which also stretches the bone. Dynzell said each procedure requires at least 3 months of recovery.

Back in 2022, he was a young Navy medic who got rejected by a woman -- for standing 5 feet 5 inches tall. Fast-forward to 2025, and he's now a 6' 1" internet sensation after adding 8 inches to his frame with 2 risky procedures.

Madison Beer says she never had any question about the way she would die ... telling Alex Cooper she used to tell people when she was young that she was sure she'd take her own life.

The singer-songwriter dove into her mental health issues on Cooper's "Call Her Daddy" podcast two years ago ... including touching on her two past suicide attempts -- including the one spurred on by naked photos of her leaking online when she was just a teenager.

Beer's talked about the emotional toll the leak took on her in the past ... but now she says it goes deeper than just feeling horrible about one thing -- because when people asked her how she thought she'd die, she always used to tell them suicide.
