This just in...: Aretha Franklin says health problem "resolved," Howard K. Stern cleared of drug charges
Aretha Franklin, 2010. (Ricky Carioti/TWP)
• Aretha Franklin says her recent health scare has been "resolved" but isn't talking about her illness or surgery last month."I don't have to talk about my health with anybody other than my doctors," she told Jet magazine. "The problem has been resolved."
• An L.A. judge dismissed the drug conspiracy convictions of Howard K. Stern, the boyfriend-lawyer of the late Anna Nicole Smith. The judge ruled that Stern never intended to break the law when he used his name to get prescription drugs for Smith. She died of an overdose in 2007; her death was ruled an accident.
