Russell Brand is a hardcore yoga practitioner.

And one of his favorite yoga mats was given to him by someone even more famous than him!

Tom Cruise apparently used the same mat that Russell uses as of today!

As if Russell Brand needed any more reasons to love David Beckham!

We previously mentioned that Russell said he would love to eat food off of Beckham's "godly" body.

Now Russell has even more of a man crush on Becks for helping him out with his chronic back pains.

Brand has apparently been suffering back pain while standing for some time now, which is a real issue if your job is "stand up" comedian!

So Becks lent him his personal masseuse to help Brand out… and it apparently cured him of his back pain!

Is Tracy Morgan allergic to high altitude or something??

Poor guy is always getting super sick when he's high up! Just in January he collapsed due to a combination of exhaustion and altitude at Sundance!

This most recent case happened before a show in Denver — the comedian got so sick that he needed a wheelchair to catch his flight at the airport!

Here's what Tracy tweeted about it:

"Feeling a little better.. had to call in sick on Saturday. I'm sorry I had to cancel. Love you Denver. I'll make it up to you."

According to his rep, Tracy had the flu before he went to Colorado (and is feeling fine as of now), and he even spent some time at the hospital for dehydration and flu-like symptoms. Such a bummer!

Well, Tracy, we hope you get better soon!

Maybe try and avoid those heights??

Shaq, his girlfriend Nicole "Hoopz" Alexander, and several comedians were part of C by Courvoisier's C if U Can Make Shaq Laugh comedy competition.

Gallagher has suffered another heart attack — this time a mild one.

The comedian was JUST released from the hospital four days before (also for a heart attack), and had a mild heart attack when he ran out of his medication.

Apparently as soon as he ran out of his heart medication (why he wouldn't have a TON of it after being in the hospital is beyond us), he began to feel like he was having another heart attack — so luckily he rushed over to the hospital.

Here's what his rep said:

"Gallagher suffered a mild heart attack today at a hospital in Sedona due to complications from his previous heart attack. He is awake and resting comfortably now."

We bet he's tired of being in there! We would be too!

Get him enough meds this time!

Jeez!

Back to being funny!

Comedian Gallagher was released from a Texas hospital on Wednesday where he was staying while he recovered from a serious heart attack which put him in a coma.

We were told he was already telling jokes in his hospital bed after waking up and that didn't change on his way out of the medical building, as he told cameras:

"Hi America, it's Gallagher. Surprise! I'm still here, but you know, into every life a little rain must fall, but if it's coffee creamer, you get a heart attack. In Texas they got a deal: You get the heart transplant and the hair transplant."

He proceeded to move an umbrella to reveal a patch of green grass on his signature bald head, then added, "I think I look pretty."

Ha! So do we. Now take it easy so this sort of thing doesn't happen for a third time!

Yesterday the news came out that legendary comedian Gallagher had suffered a heart attack before performing a set, and was then rushed to the hospital.

Now we're hearing that he's been put in a medically induced coma.

But there IS a silver lining, as we're being told his prognosis is good — he was put into the coma to recover.

He will remain in the coma until Friday afternoon, and it was his second heart attack.

Honestly, we've never heard of a heart attack patient being put into a coma to recover, but we learn something new every day!

We just want him to get better, and to start smashing watermelons again!

Thinking about you, Gallagher!
