Kristin Chenoweth's Emmys Health Scare
'Pushing Daisies' star Kristin Chenoweth won an Emmy for her work on the canceled comedy series, but her great night nearly turned into a real headache - literally. A publicist for Kristin Chenoweth says paramedics checked out the actress when she felt a migraine coming on after taking the TV trophy.Meghan Prophet says Chenoweth felt ill after winning an Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a comedy series and doing press interviews. Prophet says Chenoweth laid down and onsite paramedics examined her.
Prophet says Chenoweth is now doing fine.
The 41-year-old actress was emotional during her acceptance speech and in press interviews. Though 'Pushing Daisies' was not renewed, Chenoweth told reporters she has been busy, filming movies and guest starring on an upcoming episode of Fox's show 'Glee.'

I absolutely love & adore this woman. I literally jumped out of my seat with excitement when they named her the winner of her category. This year...the Emmy definately couldn't have gone to a better recipient. I can't wait to see what she does next. She is a brilliant performer in everything she does. What an incredible gift she has been blessed with. Best wishes to you Kristin. You are very much loved & appreciated. Get back to health. God bless!!!

David, I couldn't agree more. she is just a joy bubble. I love to watch her in action. Although small in stature,she is big on talent. I can't get enough of KC.
Good luck to her. I'm glad she is doing well.
Ps..I can't wait to see her performance in fox's "Glee"..This show is doing so well. KC will rock I'm sure of it.

Dear David,
I echo every word you wrote exactly!
Ms. Chenowith is WONDERFUL beyond words.
There could not be a more correct choice for The Emmy.
Pushing Daisies MUST and I do mean MUST be resurrected. I have watched every single one over and over again. The writing is delightful and way ahead of it's time.

I've been watching the Emmys since I was a kid. I thought the show was quite boring. Several of the jokes/skits were not really funny. Things picked up a bit when the Musical/Variety section started, but, overall, the show was a real snoozer.

She got a migraine and you call that a "health scare"? I get migraines almost every day, as do millions of others. It's not much fun, and some suffer much more than others, but it's hardly newsworthy.

Lita-why don't you crawl back under that rock you came out of. Carol has every right to her opinion.
Kristen Chenoweth is amazing. She was the perfect choice for Glinda in Wicked and I'm disappointed that I was never able to see her perform on Broadway. Congrats Kristen!

lita....Weird comment. I have nothing to be bitter about. My opinion has nothing to do with Kristin, eclairs, couches, or a meaningless life.
Plain and simple...in my view, the show was boring...not as bad as last year's, but still boring.

I thought the show was great, but you are entitled to your opinion and lita's response to you was bizarre and out of line.

I love her too but her health "scare?" Migraines are horrendous but I really don't think they constitute a health scare.
