ANAHEIM, Calif. -- "Frasier" star Kelsey Grammer took a sudden spill while hosting a function at Disneyland.

The star of the long-running NBC comedy wasn't joking when he went down. In fact, he uttered a word that the censors would have bleeped. But after brushing himself off, Grammer apologized for his language and finished the end of his routine.

"I'll finish this," he said. "Then I'll take a look at what I've done to my body."

Grammer wasn't seriously hurt in the fall.

5. I was sort of related to him.
Let me explain.

My stepmother's, godmother's, grand daughter was Kelsey's previous wife. The one that was a stripper and beat the shit out of him.

My dad and stepmom had dinner with him in 1992 when godmother was visiting from Canada.

7. She was at one time a stripper.
Edited on Thu May-05-05 01:21 PM by ronnykmarshall
And they were both doing a LOT of coke (step-ma said they kept going to the bathroom at the resturant) .... prior to their divorce she beat the crap out of him. In was in the tabs, plus my step-mom got the dirt from our family in Canada.

http://www.tribute.ca/bio.asp?id=3430

found this too ....

He was busted in 1988 for drunken driving and cocaine possession, then re-arrested and sentenced to 30 days in jail in 1990. After he accused his last wife of assault, she tried to kill herself with wine and Tylenol and, horribly, had a miscarriage instead. He has been accused of rape and in September 1996, Grammer flipped his sports car in another alcohol-related incident. He escaped serious injury, but voluntarily admitted himself to the Betty Ford Center for treatment before returning to work.

9. To quote Johnny Carson,
"I did not know that."

I never paid much attention to Grammer, anyway.
And never watched Frasier.

10. Oh man here's some more stuff about Leigh Anne.
http://www.cosmicbaseball.com/grammer9.html

In 1992 he married Leigh-Anne Cushany, a former exotic dancer, if you know what we mean, who was fifteen years younger than Grammer. The marriage lasted a year and the two were divorced in September 1993. Cushany tried to kill herself with Tylenol and wine but succeeded only in causing a miscarriage. With regard to this marriage, Grammer wrote in his autobiography:


To be sure I'd never leave her, Leigh-Anne . . . had to convince me that I was nothing--unattractive, untalented, undeserving of love, and incapable of being loved by anyone but her. The way she achieved this was to break me down with verbal abuse. "You fucking pig." "What a wimp." "Dickless." "Fag." "Prick." "Bastard." "You're so fucking stupid." "You're so fucking ugly."
These were the verbal tools, but she had more. She'd spit in my face. Slap me. Punch me. Kick me. Break glasses over my head. Break windows. Tear up pictures of my loved ones. Threaten to kill me, kill herself. Cut my balls off. Chop me up. Put a bullet in my head.

13. so, he took all that abuse from her?
Was she some sort of mental dominatrix, too? Of course, since Grammar is a Republican & it happened before today, it is considered a "youthful indiscretion"

14. 2nd or 3rd?
There was a marriage before the exotic dancer. I think the playboy model was #3.
