Gwyneth Paltrow Hospitalized in NYC

Us Magazine is reporting that Gwyneth Paltrow was admitted to New York's Mount Sinai Hospital yesterday afternoon. The reason for the hospitalization is not known, but could it have something to do with her history of crazy diets?

"She was slumped over in a wheelchair pushed by [husband] Chris Martin," an eyewitness tells Us. "She looked not well."

At 6:30 p.m., a bag — labeled "Gwyneth Martin" — from NYC organic home supply store Organics Avenue, and a white pillow, were delivered.

A source tells Us she and Martin were spending the night.

The couple, who have had some rough patches, were spotted last month dining at BLT Fish, and reportedly in good spirits. Their children, Apple and Moses, were not reported to have been with their parents at the time of admission.

UPDATE: That was fast. OK! reports that Paltrow is...ok! And still not talking about what got her rushed to the hospital (her rep says "Gwyneth is fine and at home - we are not commenting further.").

UPDATE: NY Mag called Organic Avenue to find out what Paltrow purchased from the shop. An employee told them: "She's doing our five-day live-food fast."

maybe they should be taking her to shake shack instead of the hospital.

What the hell is live food? Is it as scary as it sounds? (Visions of Gwyneth swallowing a live eel searing a hole in my brain).

Food is good. Eat food.

"She looked not well."

Um, maybe that's why she was heading into the hospital, Dick Tracy.

Oh, the banality!

Was Chris Martin havin' a laugh?

"Gwyneth is fine - she's resting, eating moss, drinking dew, and bitching at her husband like nothing happened...thanks you for your concern! - you now have 5 seconds to get off the property!"
