Zsa Zsa Gabor Hospitalized After Bone-Breaking Fall

Zsa Zsa Gabor, Hungarian actress and socialite for the ages, was hospitalized Saturday after she fell out of bed and broke several bones, the LA Times reports. The 93-year-old was listed in serious condition at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center.

Gabor was watching TV in her home in Bel-Air, California when she fell, publicist John Blanchette said. Gabor has been partially paralyzed since a 2002 car accident -- Blanchette describes her as "pretty much bedridden and wheelchair-bound for the last eight years."

"She's fragile, but she's still very bright -- she still makes me laugh," Blanchette said of recent visits with Gabor. "Her faculties are intact, but her body's failing her."

Blanchette said he received a call from Gabor's husband, Prince Frederic von Anhalt, at around 8 p.m. Saturday night with news that Gabor had fallen and taken an ambulance to UCLA.

"He said it was bad, she had broken several bones," Blanchette said of von Anhalt's call.

"My wife is a fighter," von Anhalt told TMZ. "She will be okay."

The New York Times refers to Gabor as "the prototypical 'professional celebrity': famous merely for being famous." Prototypical indeed -- who can't name one or five of those types today? Get well soon, Zsa Zsa...

Zsa Zsa and her sisters were the original gold-diggers. They came from Hungary with their mother Jolie and became famous...they also found many rich men who bedded them and often married them. they were gorgeous girls. Zsa Zsa was the most manipulative but full of wit and personality and Eva was more gentle. However, they represented a time in "celebrity history" that was in its own way magical. So sad to see Zsa Zsa end up like this. However, she has had a long, rich and life full of luxury..whih is more than most can claim.

I have the cutest picture of when my son was a little kid with Zza Zza. She was so nice to him!!! :-) He is 21 now and just graduated college.

I didn't know Zsa Zsa was still alive. Glad and sad to hear she's still kicking. Recover soon, Zsa, and slap another cop for me.

Isn't it too bad that so many people have such foul mouths and do nothing but say BARBAGE? Where has 'intellenge and integrity' gone? Some people just don't have it, do they Stu?

Too bad..........
