After hearing that her dear friend Elizabeth Taylor died Wednesday morning, fellow actress Zsa Zsa Gabor reportedly became "hysterical" and was rushed from her home to UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles.

Zsa Zsa Gabor Hospitalized Again Following Death Of Friend Elizabeth Taylor

Radar Online is reporting Zsa Zsa Gabor was watching the news early Wednesday and learned of her friend's death via a television report. Her husband, Frederic Prinz von Anhalt, relayed to the gossip web site that Gabor experienced a blood pressure spike, so he called for medical transport.

Zsa Zsa Gabor, 94, was hospitalized several times earlier this year for blood flow problems and other medical issues that resulted from a broken hip. Unfortunately, Gabor's right leg was amputated and the actress became ill after her surgeries. In early March, it was reported her left leg would also need to be amputated, but the actress elected to decline the procedure. She had since been recovering at home.

With the passing last month of "Gentlemen Prefer Blonds" star Jane Russell, and now the death of Elizabeth Taylor, Frederic Prinz von Anhalt said his wife told him she thinks "she's next". Zsa Zsa Gabor reportedly believes the idea that "celebrities go in threes", and that her time may be up next. Considering her age and poor health of late, there is little wonder why the Hungarian-born screen star would be fearful for her life.

Since 2002, Zsa Zsa Gabor has suffered an auto wreck, stroke, blood clots, and amputation of a limb. She has watched her sister Eva Gabor ("Green Acres"), and younger friends go before her, and now, she fears a superstition that too often proves eerily true. Best wishes to Ms. Gabor and her family at this time, and we hope her current hospitalization is merely out of an abundance of caution due to her blood pressure rising, which would be a normal reaction to news such as the death of a loved one.

    Last night my pappy brought the dark men home. They like to play silly games with me. Last night they made me take my pants off and open my fanny. They put their big stiks into my fanny and pushed in and out,in and out. At first it hurt real bad then it was so good dat my little peenie went up into the air. After a while they made a silly noise like an exploding wombat and the hot milk went into my belly. I went to the potty and the cream and blood falled into the toilet. I am 6 years old and Jesus loves me.
