Rachel Hunter has spoken for the first time since she was diagnosed with a heart problem, calling the health scare a necessary "wake-up call".
Rod Stewart's ex-wife, 41, was recently struck down with myocarditis, or inflammation of the heart, after a virus spread to her heart wall.
But the blonde beauty admits the incident helped remind her to scale back her hectic work schedule and take better care of herself.
She tells Women's Day magazine, "It's a good wake-up call. What I learned through all these medical issues was that I was fortunate enough to catch them in time.
"During six months, it was like, 'Why is this happening to me?' But I had a lot of time to realize I needed to slow down.
"It's a very scary thing to go through. Now when I get a cold, I get worried. It can be dangerous, but they caught it in time. It took me a couple of months to recover."
Britney Spears is all set to walk down the aisle for the third time with her long-term boyfriend Jason Trawick.
The 29-year-old pop star, who has been sporting a flower-shaped diamond on her wedding finger, has reportedly got secretly engaged to Trawick, who until last month was also her manager.
Talent agent Trawick, who is ten years senior to the 'Toxic' star, proposed to her by composing a romantic poem and bedecking the ground floor of their Los Angeles mansion with candles and roses.
"Britney's desperate to settle down again and have more children. But she is very traditional and didn't want to start a family with Jason until they'd tied the knot," The Sun quoted a source as saying.
Cameron Diaz has revealed that sex is her favourite sport and also said that she was always in the mood for sex.
"Sex is the sexiest word in the English language. Just the word is sexy to me. There's something to it, don't you think? Sex is my favourite sport," Contactmusic quoted her as telling the News of the World newspaper.
"What's the quickest way to get me in the mood? I'm always in the mood," she added.
The 38-year-old star, who recently split with baseball star Alex Rodriguez, also admitted she is in no rush to get married, and would rather make her 'own rules'.
"I don't think we should live our lives in relationships based off old traditions that don't suit our world any longer. I think a lot of people are married to people that they're not romantic with anymore," she said.
"We have to make our own rules. I just didn't ever marry anybody that I then had to get divorced from. We break up. We move on," she added.
Cameron Diaz doesn't want to get married because it means she ''misses out'' on other possibilities in her life.
The 38-year-old actress - who is rumoured to have split from her boyfriend, baseball star Alex 'A-Rod' Rodriguez - insists the institution has never been important to her because she thinks settling down can lead to too many restrictions in the future.
She said: "Marriage hasn't been important to me.
I believe we are with who we're supposed to be when we're supposed to be with them.
If I try and lock something down, I miss out on all the possibilities of what it could be."
Singer Amy Winehouse's doctors have given her an ultimatum - either she should quit drinking or brace herself for the worst.
The 27-year-old is being currently treated at rehabilitation clinic The Priory, where she checked into last week, reports thesun.co.uk.
"This is the last chance saloon for Amy. Doctors have come down hard on her because of the severity of her situation. It's a harsh reality but she had to hear it," said a source.
Winehouse' father Mitch and boyfriend Reg Traviss were also beside her when she was being advised by doctors and they begged her to heed the professionals' advice.
"They are worried about her. Mitch has been down this road before during Amy's drug addiction. But she is there of her own accord this time and wants to sort herself out," the source said.
Winehouse has heard harsh words at the clinic earlier too, during her several stints between 2007 and 2009 when she needed help with her addiction to drugs.
She hopes to sort out her problems for a number of shows in Europe this summer. She is due to perform in Serbia, Greece, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, Poland, Hungary and Romania.
Amy Winehouse's latest rehab stint has forced record label bosses to postpone plans to release her long-awaited third album, according to a U.K. report.
The British singer, who has long battled drink and drunk addiction, checked into The Priory clinic on Wednesday (25May11) to undergo a treatmentprogram, with the singer's publicist revealing she was admitted to make sure she is ready for gigs in Europe this summer (11).
However, a new report now suggests Winehouse's planned comeback is set to be delayed to give her time to recover fully.
A source tells Britain's The People, "She has finally finished the album and it's ready to go. They were just about to finalise a release date and then this happened. She is back in rehab for the foreseeable future soit is just a question of waiting and seeing now. But there is no way they can give a specific release date until they know she is likely to be out".
A statement from Winehouse's representative previously revealed, "She will remain at the Priory on doctor's advice".
