Nurse!

El Santa Claus de Madonna se cayó en medio de un baile erótico en el escenario, pero no está herido, ni confundido, según ha indagado TMZ.

Jerry Wise, también conocido como Santa Jerry, nos dice que no sabía que iba a haber un baile erótico durante su actuación en la parada de la gira de Madonna en D.C. el martes por la noche, pero que el número navideño solo falló porque la silla en la que estaba sentado no podía soportar su peso y el de la mujer.

Dicho esto, Santa Jerry dice que está bien y que su principal preocupación en el momento era no arruinar el espectáculo. Nos dice que sabe que tenía que recuperar la compostura con cierta rapidez porque se trataba de una actuación en una arena y había un montón de gente reunida para disfrutar un concierto de primer nivel.

Con todo, Jerry lo manejó tan bien como pudo y después del suceso, nos dijo que el equipo de médicos de Madge se aseguró de que no se hubiera lesionado, así como la propia Madonna, lo que él aprecia.

En cuanto a cómo se involucró en la gira, Jerry dice que es parte de la Red Mundial de Santa Claus y que recibieron una llamada del equipo de Madonna horas antes del espectáculo en busca de un Santa cerca del área de Washington DC que pudiera manejar ser el centro de atención.

Madonna's Santa Claus taking a nasty tumble in the middle of a lap dance on stage might've looked embarrassing -- but the dude's not hurt, nor is he trippin' ... TMZ has learned.

Jerry Wise, AKA Santa Jerry, tells us he actually didn't know he was in for a lap dance during his gig at Madonna's D.C. tour stop Tuesday night, but the racy Christmas bit only failed because the chair he was sitting on couldn't handle his weight the woman's.

That said, Santa Jerry says he's fine, and his main concern in the moment was not ruining the show. He tells us he knows he had to pull it together somewhat quickly -- 'cause it was an arena performance, and there were a lot of people there for a top-tier concert.

All in all, Jerry handled it as well as he could ... and after the fact, he tells us Madge's team of doctors made sure he wasn't injured -- as did Madonna herself, which he appreciates.

As for how he even got involved with the tour in the first place -- Jerry says he's actually part of the Worldwide Santa Claus Network, and they got a call from Madonna's team hours before the show, looking for a D.C.-area Santa who could handle the spotlight.

Bradley Cooper beelined it out of a big news conference for "Maestro" Thursday after someone called him to say something had happened to his daughter.

Cooper was speaking to the NYC crowd when he received the call from 6-year-old Lea's school nurse, after which he told the crowd, "So sorry. The school nurse just called me."

He then left the room to call the school back and then returned, telling the crowd he had to get to the school STAT to administer some sort of medicine that was out of bounds for the school ... this according to the Daily Mail. He said, "I have to apply something that they won't allow."

It's unclear what was wrong with Bradley's daughter and what medicine was used to treat the issue.

Bradley Cooper abandonó una gran conferencia de prensa de "Maestro" el jueves después de que alguien lo llamara para decirle que algo había pasado con su hija.

Cooper estaba hablando ante una audiencia de Nueva York cuando recibió la llamada de la enfermera del colegio de Lea, de 6 años, tras lo cual le dijo al público: "Lo siento mucho. Me acaba de llamar la enfermera del colegio".

A continuación, salió de la habitación para llamar a la escuela y luego regresó, diciendo a la multitud que tenía que llegar a la escuela inmediatamente para administrarle algún tipo de medicamento que estaba fuera de los límites del colegio, esto según el Daily Mail. Dijo: "Tengo que aplicar algo que no van a permitir".

No está claro lo que estaba mal con la hija de Bradley y qué medicamento se utilizó para tratar el problema.

Michael Bublé se llenó de emoción al hablar de la batalla contra el cáncer de hígado de su hijo Noah y de cómo eso lo ha llevado a restablecer sus prioridades y a enfocarse en su familia en lugar de su ego y el poder.

Al enterarse de que su hijo había sido diagnosticado con hepatoblastoma a la edad de 3 años, en 2016, explicó que una cortina se corrió sobre sus ojos y lo hizo darse cuenta de que aunque amaba a su familia, estaba concentrado en convertirse en el más grande y mejor en su carrera.

Hablando con Steven Bartlett en "The Diary of a CEO podcast", Michael dijo que prometió abandonar su ego y vivir una vida mejor si superaban los problemas de salud de Noah.

También quería ser más amable y empático y nunca más vivir su vida sin preocupaciones.

Michael Bublé welled up with emotion speaking of how his son Noah's liver cancer battle reset his priorities ... now focusing on his family rather than his ego and power.

Upon learning his son had been diagnosed with hepatoblastoma at the age of 3 back in 2016 ... he explained a curtain was pulled over his eyes -- making him realize that while he loved his family, he was tuned in on becoming the biggest and best in his career.

Speaking to Steven Bartlett on "The Diary of a CEO podcast" ... Michael said he promised to abandon his ego ... and live a better life if they got through Noah's health woes.

He also wanted to be kinder and empathetic -- and never live his life carefree anymore.

Warren Moon says Aaron Rodgers deserves a lot of credit for shutting down his comeback efforts this week ... explaining to TMZ Sports things could have turned dire for the QB if he had continued his push to get back on the field.

The Hall of Fame quarterback -- who knows a thing or two about playing into his 40s -- said on Wednesday he's glad Rodgers has decided to stop his pursuit of rejoining the Jets this season because he had a real fear the 4-time MVP could reinjure himself.

"Those Achilles injuries," Moon said, "even though the Achilles might be connected again, it still has to become much stronger."

Rodgers revealed on "The Pat McAfee" Show on Tuesday he would not get back under center for NY in 2023 despite busting his ass since he suffered the injury on Sept. 11 -- because he's just simply not 100 percent.

He told McAfee his leg is close -- but he needed another 3-to-4 weeks to really feel good about things. And, with the Jets officially eliminated from playoff contention on Sunday, it just seemed to make sense for the 40-year-old signal-caller to put his focus on getting ready for 2024.

Moon obviously thinks that's a great plan ... telling us that even if NY had been in the postseason hunt, he still would have rather sat Rodgers.

"I still don't think he should come back if he's not 100 percent," he said.

His advice to Aaron going forward was just to stay in shape -- while making sure his team makes it a priority to surround him with a good offensive line next season.

AEW star CJ Perry has been hospitalized for several days with a gruesome infection in her finger that has since spread up her arm ... a complication that has required surgery.

The 38-year-old shared photos with her millions of social media followers this week ... initially saying on Saturday she went to the ER after realizing a problem with her middle finger and arm.

"Please keep me in your prayers I’m at the ER @vphcares," Perry said on X ... explaining the medical emergency is the reason why she has not been competing recently.

"The infection from my small finger has gone up my arm. I am so sorry I had to miss last night and @AEW tonight. I look forward to debuting in Mexico with @AndradeElIdolo. Good luck @ToBeMiro and my client."

Perry -- who went by the ring name Lana during her WWE tenure -- provided an update on Monday ... revealing she had to undergo a procedure to address the ailment.

"The infection has gotten worse and I'm going into surgery tonight," Perry said. "Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers. I love you all."

Perry joined AEW this year ... making her debut with her husband and fellow wrestler Miro, on September 3 at the All Out PPV event. She's also an AEW manager and signed El Idolo as her first client.

Before All Elite, Perry was a WWE Superstar who also managed other wrestlers like Rusev.

Madonna says she was in a deep, controlled sleep during her hospitalization this year -- noting how lucky she is to be alive and giving insight into what she remembers in that state.

The singer made the startling revelation over the weekend during a show in Brooklyn, serving as one of the latest stops on her tour. At one point during the concert, she paused to address the crowd ... and said she'd been induced into a coma back in the summer.

Check it out ... Madge explains that a friend of hers, Shavawn, was one of the few people on hand when she passed out on the bathroom floor and made sure she got to an ER STAT.

Madonna thanked her personally -- Shavawn was in the audience that night -- and then went on to say that she also has her Kabbalah teacher to thank for being there at her side while she was in comatose. Interestingly, Madonna says she can remember hearing his voice.

As for what she can recall her teacher saying while she was under ... a common ask that anyone in that situation can identify with, especially when tending to a loved one.

Now, Madonna says when she regained consciousness ... one of the first things she saw was her six children sitting around her hospital bed. She jokes that it took a life-threatening situation to finally get all of them in one room, but sounds grateful they were there.

Madge has talked quite a bit about her health scare throughout her tour, which resumed in October -- although, she's confessed along the way that she's still not necessarily 100%.

You'll recall, she suffered a serious bacterial infection that put her out of commission for a good while ... but eventually, Madonna was back on her two feet and out in public again.

Madonna dice que estuvo en un sueño profundo y controlado durante su hospitalización este año, señalando lo afortunada que es de estar viva y de compartir una idea de lo que recuerda en ese estado.

La cantante hizo la sorprendente revelación el fin de semana durante un concierto en Brooklyn, una de las últimas paradas de su gira. En un momento, hizo una pausa para dirigirse a la multitud y les contó que había sido inducida en un coma en el verano.

Compruébalo tú mismo, Madge explica que una amiga suya, Shavawn, fue una de las pocas personas presentes cuando se desmayó en el baño y se aseguró de que llegara a urgencias.

Madonna le dio las gracias personalmente a Shavawn, que estaba entre el público esa noche, y luego pasó a decir que también tiene que dar las gracias a su maestro de Cábala por estar a su lado mientras estaba en coma. Curiosamente, Madonna dice que pudo recordar oír su voz.

En cuanto a lo que puede recordar de lo que dijo su maestro, una pregunta común para cualquier persona en esa situación, Madonna dice que cuando recobró el conocimiento, una de las primeras cosas que vio fue a sus seis hijos sentados alrededor de su cama del hospital. Bromea que tuvo que ocurrir algo que amenazara su vida para que todos pudieran estar en la misma habitación, aunque suena agradecida de que estuvieran allí.

Madge ha hablado bastante de su susto de salud a lo largo de su gira, que se reanudó en octubre, aunque ha confesado que todavía no está al 100% necesariamente.

Como recordarán, Madonna sufrió una grave infección bacteriana que la dejó fuera de servicio durante un buen tiempo, pero finalmente se recuperó y pudo volver a actuar en público.

Matthew Perry's death being pinned on ketamine by the Coroner is misleading, and puts the drug in a bad light -- so says an M.D. who's prescribed it to his own patients.

Dr. Zaid Fadul -- the Medical Director at BetterU and an expert in addiction medicine -- tells TMZ ... the L.A. County Coroner Office's finding last week that Perry died from the acute effects of ketamine doesn't really explain how he died ... at least in his professional opinion.

Yes, ketamine happened to be in Matt's system at the time of his death -- and might have been the reason he dozed off in his hot tub ... but obviously, the "Friends" actor drowned.

Dr. Fadul's point here is ... any kind of drug that spurs sedation would've likely had the same effect, and he feels like blaming MP's tragic passing on ketamine alone -- without this context -- isn't fair, and that might deter people from seeking it out as a viable option.

Now, on the issue of whether Perry had used ketamine the day he died or not -- Dr. Fadul has a theory on that as well. According to him, Matt was likely experienced with ketamine and was taking ever-increasing doses, which might've left some residual.

He adds, that residual amount could've been super high, if Matt had a high tolerance to the drug and was taking high doses. He also believes Perry wasn't only taking ketamine through an IV.

Remember, the coroner's report on Perry's cause of death noted he'd been involved in ketamine infusion therapy in the months leading up to this -- but pointed out he'd been weaning off of it thanks to a new doctor who found he didn't need as much these days.

Ketamine is often used as a treatment for depression and anxiety, which is why Matt had been taking it ... but because his ketamine levels were so elevated when he died, it's unclear Matt was taking it therapeutically or recreationally.

The implication from the report seems to be pointing to the latter. Dr. Fadul, though, isn't so sure that's accurate.

La muerte de Matthew Perry se le atribuye a la ketamina, y esto le otorga a la droga una mala reputación injustamente adquirida. Esto según un terapeuta que le ha prescrito ketamina a sus propios pacientes.

El Dr. Zaid Fadul —Director Médico de BetterU y experto en medicina de la adicción— le dice a TMZ que el forense del Condado de Los Ángeles que dijo que Perry murió por los efectos agudos de la ketamina no explica realmente cómo murió, al menos en su opinión profesional.

Sí, la ketamina pasó a estar en el sistema de Matt en el momento de su muerte y puede haber sido la razón por la que se quedó dormido en su bañera de hidromasaje, pero obviamente el actor de "Friends" se ahogó.

El punto del Dr. Fadul es que cualquier tipo de droga que estimula la sedación probablemente habría tenido el mismo efecto, y siente que culpar solamente a la ketamina por la trágica muerte es injusto y es algo que podría hacer que la gente no considere el tratamiento como una opción viable.

Ahora bien, sobre la cuestión de si Perry había consumido ketamina el día de su muerte o no, el Dr. Fadul también tiene una teoría al respecto en esta entrevista. Según él, Matt probablemente tenía experiencia con la ketamina y tomaba dosis cada vez mayores, lo que podría haber dejado algún residuo.

Recordemos que el informe del forense sobre la causa de la muerte de Perry señaló que había estado involucrado en una terapia de infusión de ketamina durante los meses previos a su muerte, pero señaló que había estado disminuyendo gracias a un nuevo médico que encontró que no necesitaba tanto en estos días.

La ketamina se utiliza a menudo como un tratamiento eficaz para la depresión y la ansiedad, y es la razón por la que Matt la había tomado, pero a los ojos del forense, el jurado no sabe si la ketamina en el sistema de Matt era para ese propósito o si era recreativa. La implicación del informe parece apuntar a lo segundo.

A devastating update on Celine Dion's debilitating battle with Stiff-Person Syndrome ... as her sister says she's lost control of her muscles.

The star's sister, Claudette Dion, revealed the shocking turn in her disease which causes painful muscle spasms, saying it would be a while before Celine returns to the stage.

She told 7 Jours it broke her heart 'cause her sister had always been disciplined and hard-working ... recalling their late mother telling Celine her habits would make her successful -- but that very success now appears threatened.

Despite the grim outlook, Claudette says it's still Celine's goal to return to the stage -- but in what capacity, she doesn't know.

Research into the neurological disorder is still ongoing ... but because it's so rare, it means progress is slow -- which Claudette can't wrap her head around ... adding that many people in the same boat have "lost hope" of a cure ever being found.

The update comes after she told HELLO! Canada in Sept that Celine was "doing everything" in her power to recover ... but her spasms were impossible to control.

The "All By Myself' singer announced she was stricken with the disease in a December 2022 video message ... forcing her to cancel a bunch of her 2023 concert dates.

3 ½ years after last being seen in public, Celine was spotted last month at a hockey game between the Vegas Golden Knights and her hometown Montreal Canadiens -- looking in good spirits despite her health woes.

Una devastadora actualización reveló la hermana de Celine Dion sobre su batalla contra el síndrome de Stiff-Person diciendo que la cantante ha perdido el control de sus músculos.

La hermana de la estrella Claudette Dion reveló el impactante giro en su enfermedad, la que causa dolorosos espasmos musculares, diciendo que pasará un tiempo antes de que Celine vuelva al escenario.

Claudette le dijo a 7 Jours que esto le partió el corazón porque su hermana siempre había sido disciplinada y trabajadora y citó a su difunta madre, quien alguna vez dijo que sus hábitos la harían exitosa. Aunque ahora ese mismo éxito parece amenazado.

A pesar del sombrío panorama, Claudette dice que para Celine sigue siendo un objetivo volver a los escenarios, pero en qué capacidad, no lo sabe.

La investigación sobre el trastorno neurológico todavía está en curso, pero debido a que es tan raro su progreso es también lento. Claudette dice que muchas personas en el mismo barco han "perdido la esperanza" de que se encuentre alguna vez una cura.

La noticia llega después de que en septiembre dijera a ¡HOLA! Canadá que Celine estaba "haciendo todo" lo que estaba en su poder para recuperarse. Pero sus espasmos son imposibles de controlar.

La cantante de "All By Myself" anunció que estaba afectada por la enfermedad en un mensaje de video de diciembre de 2022. Esto la obligó a cancelar un montón de fechas de sus conciertos de 2023.

3 años y medio después de haber sido vista en público por última vez, Celine apareció en un partido de hockey el mes pasado, entre los Vegas Golden Knights y su ciudad natal, Montreal Canadiens. Se veía de buen humor a pesar de sus problemas de salud.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is clearly recovering nicely after breaking his hip during a nasty fall last week -- 'cause he's now firing off jokes about the situation, calling himself "Humpty Kareem!"

The NBA legend shared an update on his status on his Substack page on Monday ... revealing he was actually on his way to delivering a speech at The Manhattan Transfer's concert on Friday at Disney Hall in Los Angeles when the spill happened.

"I'd like to say I fell while trying to save a child from plunging over a balcony," he wrote, "but I just tripped."

"Hard for me to accept that a once world-class athlete just stumbled. But age is the great equalizer and humbles us all."

The 76-year-old, though, shared a snap of him in a hospital bed with a huge grin -- appearing to show that his rehab is moving smoothly.

Abdul-Jabbar also thanked all the first responders who cared for him after he went down ... and he vowed to be up and at 'em again shortly.

"All my best to you from my hospital bed," he wrote. "Me and my new hip will be dancing to [The Manhattan Transfer's] tunes again."

"Well," he continued, "gently swaying."

Si Chad Johnson tuviera un voto para decidir al jugador más valioso de la NFL, iría por Tyreek Hill. Chad le dijo a TMZ Sports que la lesión que sufrió el jugador el pasado lunes demostró que no hay nadie más valioso que él en la liga.

El Cheetah fue obstaculizado en la primera mitad del juego de los Miami "MNF" contra Tennessee después de que fuera arrastrado por un oponente, y mientras estaba siendo atendido por los entrenadores, la ofensiva normalmente explosiva de los Dolphins de repente pareció acabada.

Tua Tagovailoa recibió un montón de derribos y la buena racha que el equipo se había acostumbrado a ver se evaporó de la nada.

Johnson nos dice que nada de eso es una coincidencia y asegura que todo demostró que Tyreek es el que hace al equipo de los Dolphins de este año.

"Esta es la razón por la que es parte de la conversación sobre los jugadores más valiosos", dijo Johnson. "Sé que este reconocimiento es un premio para los mariscales de campo, pero lo que viste [el lunes] por la noche, durante dos trimestres con la ausencia de Tyreek, representa lo importante que es para ese equipo".

Aunque Hill, que ahora tiene 97 recepciones para 1.542 yardas y 12 TDs esta temporada, eventualmente regresó en la segunda mitad, los Dolphins cayeron ante los Titanes por 28-27.

Johnson cree que la lesión de Hill estará bien en el futuro, aunque el entrenador en jefe del equipo de Miami Mike McDaniel dijo el viernes que el receptor está puesto en duda para el partido de este fin de semana contra los Jets, mientras continúa recuperándose.
