Despite Hilary's regular fitness programme, she nearly suffered a heart attack today. In a prepared statement to the press Hilary advised her fans to "please learn from my mistake: Do not watch the Mothman Prophecies alone at night if you suffer from an intense fear of moths and moth-like creatures."

Hilary promised that if she runs into Richard Gere at any celebrity gatherings, she will suggest adding a warning label to the film. "Especially since it was Richard [Gere]. I mean how was I supposed to know it would be scary. Did anyone else see Intersection?"

The star will also be doing some community service messages for people with moth-phobias. "It's a misunderstood ailment," she explained.
