David Arquette Has Damage to His Facial Nerve

There are reports that actor David Arquette has undergone removal of a benign bone tumor from his face, resulting in damage to a branch of his facial nerve. Apparently the actor cannot move his eyebrow yet, although it is getting better.

Most nerve injuries like this resolve over several weeks to months. It's unlikely that the nerve injury is permanent. I can't imagine how bad I'd feel if I operated on a famous actor and he ended up with a major motor nerve injury. Talk about stress! At least he's not a major beauty like his wife!

Are the Cox-Arquette's Having Trouble in Paradise?

It would be a major bummer if Hollywood's odd coupling Courteney Cox-Arquette and hubby David Arquette are in trouble. They have admitted in the past to going through rough patches, and if I recall correctly had said they attended couples therapy. A new article says that from observations of recent un-couplelike behavior, it is possible that the relationship is back on rocky ground. I hope not, because I have always pulled for them to work out. They seem to take their opposite streaks and make it work for them.

It looks like Jennifer Aniston's unlucky love streak may be rubbing off on Courteney Cox and husband David Arquette, who seem to be going through a tough time, according to Star magazine. Recently, Courteney and David have been spotted solo; Courtney at Malibu’s Nobu on Feb 17 with single gal pals Sheryl Crow and Jennifer Aniston, while the night before David was seen at an NBA Celebrity Tournament in Las Vegas.

Things seem more suspicious when Cox was spotted with Dirt co-star, Josh Stewart, shooting pool at W. Hollywood’s Barney’s Beanery. Courteney’s new show seems to be her main focus which she and David “had words about.”

A source adds, “When Courteney isn’t on the phone with someone connected to the show, she’s going off to meetings or hanging out with cast members socially.” David and Courteney were once referred to as the oddest couple in Hollywood, and while opposites may attract, the differences of these two may pull them apart. “Sometimes when you get to know someone so well, what was once endearing just becomes irritating.”

Malibu Exodus: Star's Homes For Sale

After Suzanne Somers' Malibu home burned down recently, some stars are voicing concerns that the same thing could happen to them. Courteney Cox and David Arquette recently spoke of their fears, and then put their sprawling Malibu mansion up for grabs for a mere $33.5 million. They stand to make close to $20 million if successful in unloading the 4 bedroom house, that comes with it's own beach.

Britney Spears has also put her Malibu home up for sale, but her reasoning is a little bit more mundane: divorce.

You can live in Brit's old digs for a paltry $13.5 mil. Bids anyone?
