Usually when Tom Hanks makes our elbow hurt, it's from hitting our funny bone!

But this time, it's more of a sympathetic pain!

The Cast Away star shared a video on his WhoSay page of a medical procedure that looks worse than it is- we hope! He wrote:

"Fascinating medical procedure! Not for the faint of heart. Hanx"

What Tom has is olecranon bursitis, a swelling of fluid under the skin of the elbow. A swelling that has to be drained! Only Tom Hanks could wear a smile throughout such an unnerving procedure!

Ch-ch-check out the video (above) to see the nicest guy in Hollywood get the elbow treatment- sort of!

It's about time!

We're shocked Tom Hanks doesn't have a caricature on display on Sardi's famous walls, but finally the big moment has arrived.

And it's a damn good pic!

Although it's clearly based on the non-mustache sporting Tom, the caricature is flawless!

And since his wife, Rita Wilson, already has one of her own, we're pleased their caricatures can live a happy life together on the wall.

Maybe they'll even have little caricature babies now! LOLz!

If you asked us who the last person we'd ever guess would be singing the praises of taking steroids, it would probably be Tom Hanks! We wish he was our cool uncle — why would we EVER assume he takes steroids??

Well he does, but not to bulk up!

On Letterman's show last night (above), Tom opened up his love for steroids… and how they cure the common cold!

Of course, he delivers the story about how he finds this to be a true fact in usual Tom Hanks fashion. He's just so damn charming!

LOLz!

The Tony Award nominee list is out! And it looks like this just might be Cyndi Lauper’s year! Her musical collaboration with Harvey Fierstein, resulting in the new Broadway hit Kinky Boots, is garnering quite the attention with 13 Tony nominations!

What’s more? Tweens are dominating the musical theater awards with 12 nods for Matilda, 10 for Pippin and 9 for Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella!

But we’re have to admit we’re a little stumped by the play nominees! While Tom Hanks has got himself a Best Actor in a Play nomination, that list is looking a little empty. Where’s Al Pacino?! As for the ladies, no Bette Midler?!

Ch-ch-check out the full nomination list…AFTER THE JUMP!!!

Hey now!!!

Colin Hanks and his wifey, Samantha Bryant announced that they have baby No. 2 on the way Monday at the opening night of the actor's pops Tom Hanks' new Broadway play, Lucky Guy, and we're soooo excited!!

The lovebirds are already parents to 2-year-old Olivia Jane, and while Tom and his wife, Rita Wilson have only been grandparents to one baybay, they're overjoyed because the Hanks family is growing.

We can't wait to see Colin and Samantha's new bundle of joy, and from the looks of Miz Byrant's tummy, we think she only has a few months left ’til she pops.

Congrats to the Hanks fam!!

Five cheers for Justin Timberlake's freshly-minted FIVE STINTS as a host on Saturday Night Live!

The musician turned actor, who has always managed to tickle our funny bones on the long-running sketch comedy series, hit the milestone during his latest appearance last night, and in honor of the occasion, dedicated his entire opening monologue to reaping all the benefits of belonging to such an exclusive group of individuals…ALONGSIDE fellow inductees Paul Simon, Steve Martin, Chevy Chase, Tom Hanks, Alec Baldwin, and Candace Bergen!

OH! And Martin Short was there, too!

But mostly, we assume, so The Three Amigos would be all together in one room!

LOLz!

Ch-ch-check it out (above), as well as some of Justin's best sketches last night, including the much-anticipated return of Andy Samberg for a Dick in a Box reunion, porn stars selling champagne, pretty much every romantic comedy ever, and what we will only describe as "Maine Justice"…AFTER THE JUMP!!!

The rumors of Toy Story 4 are flying higher than Buzz Lightyear, but Disney still won't say if they'll be going to infinity and beyond with another installment.

The latest in Toy Story news came on Monday when Colombian radio executive Jorge Balaguera tweeted:
