That's What She Said -- The Office

Wed, 16 May 2007

I don't know if this is already widely known in THE OFFICE fandom circles, but "friend of the show" Kevin Crossman pointed me towards this blog entry on USA Today's POP CANDY page--

"An inquisitive e-mail came from Pop reader Abby V. today:

"I've been hearing that Jenna Fischer got hurt recently, and I was wondering if you had heard anything or knew someone to ask ..."

Unfortunately, there's some truth to that rumor. Fischer's rep tells me the Office star "fractured her lower back in four places" in New York Monday after falling down some marble stairs in high heels. Her pal and co-star Angela Kinsey "has been with her the whole time" and her husband, filmmaker/actor James Gunn, has flown to be with her.

He added, "She is expected to make a full recovery and will not miss any time on The Office.""

------------------------------------

Ouch! Hope she's doing OK, and hope this isn't getting in the way of all these films she'd been linked to recently.

Ms. Pop Candy suggests leaving some "get well" messages at Jenna's MySpace page, and I suppose that's as good a place as any. You can access her page from our LINKS section on the right.

Get well soon, J!

Well, if you\'re gonna get hurt at least it was in the off-season. Pam doing her job in a wheelchair would be so depressing. Get well, Jenna!

That explains why she wasn\'t on Conan on Tuesday. I was in the audience and was totally disappointed to see John Stamos instead of Jenna. The guys sitting next to me were equally disappointed, they had painted their chests for Jenna....
