Still Ill?

Filed under: Paul Newman

wenn12878841.jpg

Speculation about the health of Paul Newman has intensified and the legendary actor has felt compelled to speak out again.

Previously, a rep for Newman said reports that he was fighting terminal lung cancer were not true.

Well, it seems like somebody must have spoken out of turn.

Paul released a statement late Tuesday evening, which was more cryptic and did not deny the health reports.

Says the actor's publicist: "Newman says he's doing nicely. This is what I got from him. He says he's doing nicely, and this is the statement I wanted to share with you, and that's what I have. I spoke to his office. … this is the statement that came directly from him."

Our thoughts are with Paul and his family during this time.

We hope he stays 'nicely' for a while!

    If your thoughts were really with Paul and his family during this time you would stop blogging about his health when he obviously would like some privacy!

    It really pisses me off when you ATTEMPT to be sympathetic to someone who is seriously ill.
    You had it in for Heath Ledger until he passed away and then all of a sudden you were his number one fan, you even went as far as to delete all the old blogs about him to cover your tracks.
    You're a two faced prick.

    I really wish Paul well… unlike you Perez he's a nice human being… I genuinely couldn't see anyone giving a flying fuck if you died!

    Has anyone ever noticed that Paul Newman is blind in one eye? One of his pupils is huge in response to darkness and the other is very small…



  13. 13

    mhm, has anyone noticed, that he is old and has a right to be blind, ill, whatsoever and that it is none of our business.

    but it's so ridiculous to see this great man beeing put as an idol for someone (perez) who only wants to make money, wants to have fame, pisses off everybody… perez you are ok, but you are not one bit a paul newman, maybe none of us is, but you are shady and your "worldwide cause" is something i just don't buy.

    yeah, and i'd love to have more paul newmans on the world - and one of them to marry me ; ) (in his 30s not 80s)

    Perez, leave this fuckin' man alone. He gives 100% of his Newman's Own profits to charity, he lives in CT, not CA. He does not attend awards shows, and he isn't an actor turned political blowhard. He has taught his children to use the fame they get from being his daughters to make money for charity. Nell's Newman's Second Generation gives much of their profit to charity also.

    Maybe the reason visitors to this site are down are because of your reporting on what amounts to a private citizens private battle. You love outing people, regardless of what you are outing them on. Your public is turning on you. The only thing worse than a fake show like The Hills is someone reporting EVERYDAY on the adventures of the fake cast members. I skip by every post about LC, Heidi, and Spencer, because they mean NOTHING to me.

    You are rapidly losing viewership, and I suggest you transition to a show like E or whatever. Your website is stale, difficult to navigate, full of hateful comments, and becoming a really juvenile interface.

    GOD BLESS PAUL AND CAMP KOREY!!!(A CAMP THAT PAUL FOUNDED FOR TERMINALEY ILL CHILDREN IN REDMOND WA.)

IT IS ALL FOR FUN IF IT'S TRUE OR NOT BUT IF ALL YOUR GONNA DO IS SAY 1st OR TALK SHIT THAN GO TO ANOTHER WEB SIGHT OR BETTER YET-GET A JOB OR BE A BIG BROTHER OR SISTER OR VOLUNTEER AT A FOOD BANK. JUST DO SOMETHING POSITIVE!!!!!!!!
    PEACE OUT!

    Mr Newman is a true Legend. either it being a great actor and as well as his line of grocery merchandises… organics and etc. May he pulls through this with Gods grace and prayers. So for those who may want or attempt to make "bad" or "who cares" comments or such… SCREW YOU!

    Re: airam

    Oh, you silly little child! It's web SITE! This is how people know that children are posting here. And that's the problem. I come here to try to save the world from this manufactured hate that Perez is making money on, and to try to help people realize that it's so hateful that it's harmful. Perez is creating a sub-culture of hate that is underlying in our society, making it okay to really rip into a person for getting older, or being a lesbian, or just living! It's not okay. He's not okay. I'll come here every five minutes and post and try to get enlightenment for just one person, if that's what I have to do. I've got time, money and the absolute drive to stop this cultural clash. So please think about it and tell me what makes Mario a good person who should be defended. And might I add that you should spend more time learning the difference in "sight" and "site'. Peace and love.

    RESPECT PLEASE!! This man, this artist, as an actor in his era was called, has been around alot longer than all of you. Ah, the lovely feeling that you think all of you will never pass on, at least he will have a legacy that goes beyond the soundbite that is this comment section.

    I can remember as a young teenager having a poster of Paul Newman in my room. He was my favorite actor then and still is to this day. He is an intelligent gracious man who happens to be an actor. I have always loved Paul Newman and it pains me to see him get old. But WE ALL GET OLD unless we die first, so before making comments about age….just remember that. There is nothing different from you at age 20 and Paul Newman at age 83 other than he was born before you. Have some respect for older people…they are just young people who lived longer than you,,,and believe me….you and I will be there a lot sooner than we want to be. We are ALL aging every single day. There is no one that escapes getting old so get over your young selves pleeeez!
