We’re still laughing about the revelation that Nick Cannon’s “dramatic” illness was not so dramatic after all. His wife Mariah Carey tweeted for friends to “pray for Nick” when he was hospitalized in Aspen for kidney “problems.” She included a photo of herself languishing at his bedside. It turns out all Nick had was kidney stones – a fairly common and not so dangerous, but uncomfortable, disorder. It’s funny how Mariah tried to turn it into a huge drama. The healthy couple was photographed at the BET Awards this weekend. It looks like some extra straps were added to her dress to keep the top from slipping down.

TRACY MORGAN: THANKS FOR THE KIDNEY-BYE BYE!

“30 Rock’s” Tracy Morgan pulled off an exceptionally caddish move when he allowed his exgirlfriend Tanisha Hall donate a kidney to him, and then dropped her like a hot potato. Morgan had been diagnosed with diabetes in 1996 but continued to mistreat his body with forbidden substances and neglect. He ended up in dire straits. According to Mediatakeout, he and his girlfriend Tanisha had recently broken up and she wanted to repair the romance, so she volunteered HER kidney. He jumped at the chance and had the successful surgery December 10. He thanked her, paid the hospital bill, and never looked back. Somehow this reminds us of George Lopez’s situation.
