Natalie Cole has been discharged from hospital. The 58-year-old singer - the daughter of late legendary crooner Nat King Cole - was admitted to a New York medical center last month after a setback in her battle with Hepatitis C.

She has now been allowed to return to Los Angeles and is considering returning to work in November, despite canceling tour dates for this month after being placed on bed rest.

It's a girl for talk show host Bryon Allen and his wife Jennifer Lucas. Allen, host of the talk shows "Entertainers with Bryon Allen" and "Comics Unleashed," and his wife are expecting their first child.

Lucas, 36, told People.com that the baby is a girl and is due on August 29. She said the couple is very excited and had been wanting children. She also said the timing is perfect.
