Robin Williams to Undergo Heart Surgery
Robin Williams is postponing the remainder of his critically acclaimed one-man show, "Weapons of Self-Destruction," to undergo surgery for an aortic valve replacement.
"I'm so touched by everyone’s support and well wishes," said Williams. "This tour has been amazing fun and I can’t wait to get back out on the road after a little tune-up."
The tour -- which has been sold out since September 2008 -- is expected to resume in the fall.
A source told Usmagazine.com that Williams is currently in an intensive care unit for heart issues at the University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Medical Center in south Miami.
A well-placed source tells Us the actor, 57, underwent "cardioversion," a procedure that converts an abnormal heart rhythm back to a normal rhythm, on Wednesday night.
According to a statement on his Web site, Williams was experiencing shortness of breath.
"[He] is currently being evaluated by doctors who are recommending a week of rest," read the statement.
Thanks
Vince Vaughn is engaged.
Weeks after Us Weekly reported that the actor, 38, proposed to Canadian real estate agent Kyla Weber, her father confirmed the news Thursday in an interview with the Montreal Gazette. He declined to comment any further.
"She's so happy and excited! They clicked from the beginning," a pal recently told Us of the couple. "Kyla never mentions Jennifer Aniston [Vaughn's famous ex]."
Adds the source, "Vince has met Kyla's whole family in Calgary. And she met his family in Chicago. They loved her!"
Thanks
