‘Would have chosen death’ Donny Osmond thought he was ‘going crazy’ amid health battle

BBC Radio 4.Donny has revealed he once faced crippling anxiety while appearing on stage in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat.His lead role in the Andrew Lloyd Webber musical revived the pop star's career in a time where it was facing a bit of a lull, but the former teen pop sensation admitted there were difficulties behind the scenes.Donny, who has been famous since childhood, confessed he feared his career would be over if he did not deliver an outstanding performance. He shared he had been experiencing panic attacks and stage fright, as he was riddled with worries that he wouldn’t be good enough in the critically-acclaimed production. "I didn't want my career to fail again," he said. "I had to be perfect. “If I didn't give a perfect performance people would walk out of the theatre saying 'it wasn’t worth the price.'"Donny previously shared his experiences of anxiety, saying: "There are times I remember before I walked on stage where if I had the choice of walking on stage or dying, I would have chosen death."Of his panic attacks, the star said: "I thought I was actually going crazy in my mind."I remember shaking in bed, and I just… I couldn't get out of bed.Something was wrong, and my wife took me to the hospital.""I felt like he was having a nervous breakdown,” his wife Debbie Osmond said.

Joshua Macias PHILADELPHIA - A Vets for Trump co-founder arrested after driving a Hummer containing weapons and ammunition to a site where votes were being counted in Philadelphia in November 2020 will remain free to await trial despite violating bail conditions.A judge at a hearing Friday said that Joshua Macias had violated bail conditions through social media posts made under another name.Common Pleas Judge Lucretia Clemons said she could have revoked bail but instead chose to warn Macias, 43, of Chesapeake, Virginia, to "stay off social media."Prosecutors say Macias and co-defendant Antonio LaMotta planned a mass shooting as the presidential election hung in the balance but were thwarted by an FBI tip about their travels. Macias was charged with carrying a gun on a public street without a license and trying to interfere with the election.District Attorney Larry Krasner had asked this week that Macias be held in contempt because of video that shows him meeting with top leaders of two-far right extremist groups in Washington the day before the Jan.

Report: Smoking bans are no longer a threat to casino revenue

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. - For decades, it was accepted wisdom in the casino industry that eliminating smoking would automatically lead to revenue declines and customer losses.But a new report examining how the coronavirus pandemic has changed gamblers' habits says that may no longer be the case.The report issued Friday by Las Vegas-based C3 Gaming come as several states, including New Jersey, Rhode Island and Pennsylvania, are considering banning smoking in casinos. The research firm says its report was done independently and was not financed by any outside party.It notes that the pandemic changed several key aspects of the casino experience, including the elimination of daily housekeeping in many places, closing of buffets and an end to room service — all of which customers have gotten used to.

Paul McCartney marks 80th birthday with Bruce Springsteen, 60,000 pals in New Jersey

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - Hard to think of a better way for Paul McCartney to celebrate his 80th birthday than by singing "Glory Days" onstage with Bruce Springsteen or being serenaded by some 60,000 well-wishers.That's right, the "cute Beatle" turns 80 on Saturday. It's one of those cultural milestones that bring a sharp intake of breath — has it been THAT long? — along with an appreciation of what he still has to offer.For it has been more than a half-century now since the Beatles broke up, a realization that hits you like that 1970s-era joke about young people saying, "Paul McCartney was in a band before Wings?"Like several other members of the "hope I die before I get old" generation, including Bob Dylan, the Rolling Stones and former Beatles mate Ringo Starr, McCartney keeps working, keeps sharing his music from the stage.

Larry Nassar loses his last appeal in sexual assault scandal

DETROIT (AP) - The Michigan Supreme Court on Friday rejected a final appeal from sports doctor Larry Nassar, who was sentenced to decades in prison for sexually assaulting gymnasts, including Olympic medalists.The court declined to take the case. Attorneys for Nassar said he was treated unfairly in 2018 and deserved a new hearing, based on vengeful remarks by a judge who called him a "monster" who would "wither" in prison like the wicked witch in "The Wizard of Oz.""I just signed your death warrant," Ingham County Judge Rosemarie Aquilina said of Nassar's 40-year sentence.More than 150 victims spoke or submitted statements during an extraordinary seven-day hearing in Aquilina's court. Nassar pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting gymnasts and other athletes with his hands under the guise of medical treatment for hip and leg injuries.

YORK, Pa. - An appeals court has halted the release of a man awaiting a new trial on charges of having killed his wife and then faking an all-terrain vehicle accident to cover up the slaying a decade ago.Local media report that a York County judge last week had cleared the way for the release of 49-year-old Joe Fitzpatrick III of Chanceford Township. He's accused of having drowned 43-year-old Annemarie Fitzpatrick in a creek in June 2012 and then telling police they crashed their ATV in the water.The judge cited a state constitutional provision saying bail should be allowed except in first-degree murder or mandatory life term cases, and said details of the trial and Fitzpatrick's lack of a significant criminal record made bail a viable option.

Bill that would limit inmates' records access passes House

It would amend the state’s Right-to-Know Law by restricting the access inmates have to documents held by governments and public agencies.Agencies would be required to supply public government documents about the inmate only in specified categories, and as long as those records don’t "diminish the safety or security" of anyone or the correctional facility where the inmate is being held.Incarcerated people are regarded as any other requester through current law, said Liz Wagenseller, executive director of the Office of Open Records.Rep.
