Keith Barry Tries To Fight Criss Angel In Vegas

That's what Barry told a Toronto morning radio program. He said he couldn't get at him but that it started because Criss was being a "nasty guy." If true, it certainly doesn't do wonders for Criss' image. Link to our transcript: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://itricks.com/news/?...

Roy Horn Recuperated From Surgery, Back In Vegas

According to iTricks' Austrian friends:

Roy Horn was up and about last weekend nearly two weeks after he was flown to the country for knee surgery. He visited with the world famous Lipizzaner stallions, caught up with some old magic friends and then flew back to his home in Sin City on Monday.

Re: CELEBRACADABRA

I would suspect that the replay numbers for a cable net like VH1 play a MUCH larger role then they do for a show like Lost. For instance, if the initial airing of a Celeb does so-so and then the tracking shows that more and more people watched all the way through the episode in subsequent airings......

Re: Roy Horn Hospitalized, Will Undergo Knee Surgery

Completely agree. This is certainly something to keep an eye on.

The good news is he was photographed looking active before he went into the hospital and had the presence of mind to reserve the whole floor according to our sources. So it looks like it wasn't an complete emergency.

Hopefully...

The AFP is reporting that illusionist Roy Horn is set to undergo knee surgery in Austria. There is no detail on why the operation is needed, or if the injury is in anyway caused by Roys rehabilitation from the attack by one of his tigers in 2003.
