UPDATE: April Margera, Bam’s mom, has made a statement saying that it was dehydration that sent Bam to the hospital.  TMZ says:

April — who just got back in town from a vacation — said Bam had been filming for the MTV show “Nitro Circus” and had become “severely dehydrated.” She said when Bam films stunts for shows like “Nitro” — which is just like “Jackass” — he forgets to take care of himself and doesn’t eat enough.

Apparently Bam is going to be fine, THANK GOD!  I love Bam Margera…and I couldn’t have handled another celebrity death this month.

******************************

TMZ is reporting that Bam Margera, star of Jackass and Viva La Bam, was rushed to the hospital yesterday after paramedics showed up at his home in West Chester in response to a 911 call for a “possible drug overdose.”

This all happened around 1:30 PM yesterday, so the story is still developing.
