TLC singer Tionne “T Boz” Watkins is opening up about her grueling health battles, including an ongoing fight against sickle cell disease, falling into a coma following the birth of her daughter and her “miracle” recovery from a terrifying brain tumor.
The 47-year-old singer sat down with Et’s Kevin Frazier to promote her new book, A Sick Life: TLC 'n Me: Stories from On and Off the Stage, in which she shares harrowing details about her struggles and how being a mom motivated her to fight through.
During one of her many low points, Watkins recalled crying in disbelief after learning she had a brain tumor in 2006.
“That was the hardest four days ever because the first day, I cried in disbelief and went through, ‘Why is this happening? I’ve been through enough,’” she told Et. “And then the third day kicked in and I was like, ‘Bump that, I’m gonna...

The 1990′s was a bit of a strange decade for Kiss. The band had spent the latter half of the ’80′s riding the popular hair metal wave then changed directions in 1992 with the release of Revenge, an album that was to have reestablished them to heavy metal respectability, territory they had not trod since 1982′s Creatures of the Night.
Unbeknownst to them, and the rest of the metal world, the Seattle based Grunge movement was about to steal the majority of the industry’s and fans’ attention for the next few years, leaving a very good Revenge album that hit # 6 on the Billboard 200 with no follow up.
Kiss then did what Kiss tended to do when the tides of taste changed and made an album that fit the mold of what was fashionable (remember 1979′s Dynasty, Kiss’ disco album?). Carnival of Souls – The Final...

Happy Birthday, Mila Kunis! The Sexiest Woman Alive turns 30 years old today (can you believe it?!), and in celebration of the stunning star, we're taking a look back at her impeccable style over the years. From her days as the snobby Jackie Burkhart on That '70s Show to her epically wicked performance in Black Swan to her long-running Family Guy gig as the voice of Meg Griffin, there's no doubt the actress has wowed on both the big and small screen over the course of her highly successful Hollywood career. Kunis' personal life also became the subject of public fascination after the brunette beauty began dating her former '70s Show costar Ashton Kutcher last year. Although the...

Looks like Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher are still going strong! The adorable twosome and former That '70s Show costars were snapped hand-in-hand as they strolled the streets of Rome after a romantic dinner date in the Italian capital. The often casually clad couple wore jeans and scarves for the evening outing, as they stayed close together to keep warm in the crisp weather. Ashton looked charming in a gray jacket and flat cap, while his Sexiest Woman Alive looked effortlessly chic in leather boots and a striped shirt. After dinner, Ashton and Mila returned to the brunette beauty's apartment, where the 29-year-old actress is staying while she is filming scenes for the flick, The Third...

Apparently all it takes is an unflattering tank top to spark of a pregnancy rumor.
That's at least what happened to Mila Kunis, who was spotted grabbing coffee in Los Angeles with boyfriend Ashton Kutcher Saturday (Oct. 27) and seemed to be showing a bit of a tummy. It didn't take long after photos of the date hit the web for people to start speculating that the Sexiest Woman Alive was pregnant with her "That '70s Show" costar's baby.
Well, she's not. The representative for the 29-year-old has shot down speculation surrounding the alleged baby bump by telling RumorFix, "She is not pregnant."
Back in August, Kunis told Glamour that she's open to having a baby.
"This isn't the right time for me to have one, but I do want a family," she said. "I'd rather be in love and have a baby than have a movie."...

On the occasion of being named the Sexiest Woman Alive by Esquire Magazine, Mila Kunis reiterated her pro-Obama, anti-gop views.
"The way that Republicans attack women is so offensive to me," Kunis said. "And the way they talk about religion is offensive. I may not be a practicing Jew, but why we gotta talk about Jesus all the time? And it's baffling to me how a poor person in Georgia can say, 'I'm a Republican.' Why?"
Kunis also recounted her experience at this year's White House Correspondents' Dinner, where she was a guest of CNN and chatted with anchor Wolf Blitzer.
The "That '70s Show," "Black Swan" and "Ted" actress has long been an avowed Obama fan. Last year, Kunis told Stylist (via Newsbusters) that she "loves Obama" and "can't say anything bad about him."
When Esquire noted that some believe celebrities shouldn't speak about politics so much, the...

Mila Kunis, the diminutive Ukrainian-born actress who moved from "That '70s Show" to a headlining movie career in recent years, has been named Esquire's Sexiest Woman Alive for 2012. We can't say that's a terrible choice.
Highlights of her photoshoot are included above and below and here are some snippets from her interview inside the magazine:
Do you think you're funny?
I think I stumbled upon doing funny things, but I'm not funny. I just know how to deliver a joke. There are people who naturally exude humor and are constantly saying funny things, and there are the people who know how to deliver a joke. It's a learned skill. Through twenty years of doing this, I practice it. I think that the second you think that you're funny is when you stop being funny.

The eyes have it! Mila Kunis is officially the Sexiest Woman Alive, as per Esquire Magazine.
Wearing nothing but jeans and a smoldering look, the 29-year-old actress graces the cover of the magazine's November issue. Judging by the photograph, it's clear the Ted star is bringing sexy back.
Kunis earns the title from last year's winner, Rihanna, and she takes the flattering news in stride.
"If I wanted to charm the pants off you, I could," said Kunis, in her cover story with Esquire. But, the Ukrainian beauty also knows not to take the honour too seriously.
"I think that if I bought into the hype, I would lose all sight of who I am, and so much of who I am is what my parents went through and instilled in me," said Kunis. "And I never want to lose that. Ever. Because I would be so disappointed if I didn't make them proud.
