2 CHICAGO TRIBUNE | LIVE! | SECTION 3 | TUESDAY, APRIL 7, 2009 Farrah Fawcett is being treated for anal cancer that has spread to her liver and has been hospitalized for a complication from a routine treatment, a producer who worked with the actress and her doctor said Monday, The Associated Press re- ported. In separate phone interviews with AP, Fawcett’s producer and her doctor said that Fawcett is in a Los Angeles hospital, recovering from complications from a medical procedure in Germany, and is “not on death’s door,” as the producer, Craig Nevius, put it. Nevius, who has worked with the ac- tress, confirmed that the 62-year-old “Char- lie’s Angels” star, who has been fighting cancer since 2006, was hospitalized in Los Ange- les because of a blood clot that was likely a side effect of treatment. Nevius said Fawcett is expected to leave the hospital in a few days. Meanwhile, Redmond O’Neal (left), Fawcett’s son with Ryan O’Neal, was arrested Sunday on suspicion of bring- ing narcotics into a jail facility and was being held on $25,000 bail. Bleak news on Farrah Fawcett disputed AP PHOTO 2004 In a peculiar interview with the “Today” show’s Matt Lauer on Monday, disgraced former New York governor Eliot Spitzer made reference to his personal demons, er, “grem- lins,” and acknowledged that, yes, it did occur to him that someone, somewhere would figure out that he was seeing a high-priced call girl. “It crossed my mind,” he said of getting caught. “But you ignore the obvious at certain moments because you simply don’t want to confront it.” While emphasizing that what he did was “egregious” (he used the word twice) and saying there is “no excuse for his behavior” (repeated three times), a tense but self-assured Spitzer also noted that he has faced his flaws. “I have tried to address these gremlins, confront them,” he said, of- fering a tantalizing image but few specifics. Also intriguing: Spitzer told his inter- viewer that the call-girl period did not last long “in the grand context of my life.” How long did the period last in the humble context of an ordinary life?

A moment later, she pauses, as- sesses her progress, then declares: “No, more makeup.” She applies Preparation H under her eyes, which tightens the skin and gets rid of the morning shadows. A natural brunet, she lightens her eyebrows to complement the blond wig. To warm up her vocal cords, she drinks water and sighs loudly, melodically and—it seems, to the uninitiated listener— obscenely. After 20 minutes in front of the bathroom mirror, Guccione moves to an upright piano in the living room, where she sings scales. Then, a snippet from Giacomo Puccini’s “Gianni Schicchi.” Her first attempt at a high note sputters, causing her to break into laughter. “It’s too early in the morning for a high D,” she says. She has a reliable regimen, a ritual. “Are you going to sing with me? Give me some good luck?” she asks Quesadora, one of her three small dogs. As Guccione again launches into scales, the tiny bichon frise howls along, on pitch. “The first time she sang with me, she wet the couch,” Guccione says, laughing. People are much the same, in a strange way. “I love the art form,” Guccione says of opera. “It can evoke such emotion in people. It’s healing, in a way. It gives you permission to have all these emotions.” Guccione herself has been moved to tears after a job. “There was one job where I had to go to this nursing home,” she says. “It was a 50- year-old woman who had a stroke, lost her sight, but loved opera. And for her, I sang genuine opera arias. That made my day. That was really special.” Moments later, she slips on a furry vest, braids and a horned helmet. She looks, for all intents and purposes, like Bugs Bunny from the cartoon “What’s Opera, Doc?” But it’s the stereotype people are attracted to, she says. “It’s kind of like introducing opera and making it approachable for people who might otherwise be intimidated by it,” she says. “It shouldn’t be intimidating. The bot- tom line of opera is: It’s about life.” Taking one final look in the mirror, she says, “I think I was born to be a blond.” And with that, she grabs her spear, tilts her viking helmet up and heads out the door to her next conquest.
