It's April 1st, from Hollywood to your headphones. This is Entertainment and Celebrity News. Today, powered by AI, I'm Cory with the Story. Bijou Phillips is battling a serious kidney issue and needs a second transplant after her first one from 8 years ago started failing due to complications like the BK virus. The 46-year-old is back on dialysis under care UCLA, but she stepped out looking fierce twos a night at a beauty-launched dinner in Beverly Hills, rocking a white top, acid wash jeans, and her curly blonde hair down. She's pushing through for a 12-year-old daughter, Fianna, now that her ex-husband, Danny Masterson, is serving a 30-year prison sentence for, rate convictions. Phillips filed for divorce last year and has been dating clothing brand founder Jamie Mazur since this year, but her main drive is being there as a single mom. Hilton's have rallied hard around her. Kathy Hilton, mom to Paris and Nikki, shared that Phillips was terrified of dialysis at first,
fearing she might not survive, but Kathy's husband. Richard got her to commit to treatment for her kid's sake. The Hilton sisters and a big circle of supporters show up at every hospital visit. Nearly 1,000 people have signed up as potential donors, even if not all match. Many want to stay on the list to help others. Some friend of Nikki's, who never met Phillips, jumped in anyway. Phillips is keeping that fighter spirit alive, balancing glam nights out with the tough road ahead, grateful for the love holding her up.
