"My father leaves behind a legacy of great performances in movies and in his paintings and assemblages," the actress, 51, said in a statement Thursday.

"He leaves behind children and their families who loved him and respected him and a wife and in-laws who were devoted to him. He also leaves behind fans all over the world," added Curtis.

The star was 85 and also suffered from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Jamie Lee, the daughter of Curtis and his first wife, actress Janet Leigh, was previously estranged from her father for a period of time but later reconciled.

Rutgers Student Commits Suicide After Secret Sex Tape - People Magazine

A body found in the Hudson River has been identified as Tyler Clementi, the Rutgers University freshman who committed suicide after his roommate allegedly secretly filmed him having sex.

Tyler, 18, who jumped off the George Washington Bridge on Sept. 22, died from drowning and blunt force trauma, according to the New York Medical Examiner's office. The body was recovered Wednesday.

"Tyler was a fine young man, and a distinguished musician," says the Clementi family's attorney, Paul Mainardi. "The family is heartbroken beyond words. They respectfully request that they be given time to grieve their great loss and that their privacy at this painful time be respected by all."

Authorities say Clementi's roommate, Dharun Ravi, 18, set up a camera in their room and remotely turned it on without Clementi's knowledge. He also tried to stream it live on the Internet.

"Roommate asked for the room till midnight. I went into molly’s room and turned on my webcam. I saw him making out with a dude. Yay," Ravi wrote on his Twitter page Sept. 19.

Three days later, Clementi committed suicide. "Jumping off the gw bridge sorry," he wrote on his Facebook Page, New Jersey's The Star-Ledger reports.

Ravi and another student, Molly Wei, 18, have been charged with two counts each of invasion of privacy after police learned the camera had been placed in the room without Clementi's permission, Middlesex County prosecutor Bruce J. Kaplan says.

If convicted, they face up to five years in prison for the charges.

"If the charges are true, these actions gravely violate the university's standards of decency and humanity," Rutgers President Richard McCormick said in a statement. "Our university community feels the pain of his loss, and I know there is anger and outrage about these events."

Zsa Zsa Gabor in critical condition

Zsa Zsa Gabor was hospitalized in critical condition Friday and might have suffered a stroke while undergoing hip replacement surgery after a fall at her Bel-Air home, her publicist said.

John Blanchette said he spoke to Gabor's husband on Thursday and was told the 93-year-old actress "was bleeding excessively" and was not responding to surgery.

"She hasn't talked. She wasn't speaking. They were worried about that. They took her off morphine to see if that might be the cause," Blanchette said. "She's vacant."

Gabor's husband, Prince Frederic von Anhalt, "told me that she was bleeding excessively ... and that the doctors told her that she may have suffered a stroke during the operation," Blanchette said.

Blanchette said he was not able to speak directly to Gabor's doctors and could not confirm her condition Friday.

"We're all still hopeful," he added.

Gabor, a Hungarian-born sexpot of the 1950s and 1960s, was watching her favorite television game show in bed last Saturday when she tumbled out of bed while trying to answer the telephone.

Gabor has to use a wheelchair after being partially paralyzed in a 2002 car accident. She was trying to reach her wheelchair to get out of bed but its brake wasn't on and it moved away, spilling her out of the bed, Blanchette said.

She underwent more than three hours of surgery at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center to replace her hip but may have received other injuries from the fall, Blanchette said.

"She had a bump on her head. She had a contusion on her arm. So they weren't sure what else is going on," he said.

Julianne Hough thought Ryan Seacrest_was gay before they started dating.

While trying to win over the heart of girlfriend Julianne Hough, Ryan Seacrest had to reportedly address his sexuality.

According to TMZ.com, Hough opened up about her new boyfriend while celebrating her 22nd birthday earlier this week with friends at Morton's steak house in North Carolina.

When a pal asked how the two became an item, the "Dancing with the Stars" alum reportedly said that Seacrest, 35, had been chasing after her since she was 18.

"He totally wasn't my type," she said about the well-groomed TV host, according to TMZ. "I thought he was gay."

Despite a dating history that includes actress Shana Wall and Teri Hatcher, Seacrest's sexuality has long been questioned in Hollywood. Luckily for him, Hough didn't buy into the rumors.

"After a few years, he was persistent so I went out with him on a date and I realized how much I liked him," Hough purportedly added.

Though they continue to dodge romance rumors, the under-the-radar couple has been heating up since they were first linked in April

During a recent getaway to Portofino, Italy, Hough was photographed straddling the "American Idol" host while the pair embraced in a steamy lip lock aboard a yacht.

The pair hasn't had much luck hiding their romance as they have frequently been spotted together on dinner dates, shopping trips and taking beachside strolls in Malibu.
