Boxing superstar Mike Tyson's 4-year-old daughter Exodus is fighting for her life in a Phoenix hospital, and doctors say things don't look good.

According to FOX News, the little girl is on life support after getting her head caught in a cable attached to a treadmill. Reports say Tyson's 7-year-old son found Exodus early this morning in the family's rec room. The boy called for his mom, who then called 911 while trying to revive the young girl.

Phoenix police told FOX News, "Somehow she was playing on this treadmill, and there's a cord that hangs under the console - it's kind of a loop. Either she slipped or put her head in the loop, but it acted like a noose, and she was obviously unable to get herself off of it."

Paramedics reportedly stabilized Exodus, who was rushed to a local hospital where she remains on life support. Police say her condition is "extremely critical."

As for Tyson, reports say, he was in Las Vegas at the time of the accident, but has since returned to Arizona to be with his wife and children.

It's bad news for Al Gore's second oldest daughter.

According to reports, Kristin Gore spent the weekend alone with her famous father after filing for divorce from her husband of four years.

Court records cite "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for the split.

The couple wed in 2005 and have no children together.

Finally, Alec Baldwin is also dealing with some bad news today.

Even after he publicly apologized for making a joke about getting a Filipino mail-order bride, the people of that country don't want anything to do with him.

According to reports, the actor has been banned from entering the Philippines, thanks to the flippant joke he made about sex trafficking in the country.

The country's Bureau of Immigration reports that it has closed its borders to the star.

Immigration Commissioner Marcelino Libanan says, "By being on the bureau's blacklist, Baldwin is forbidden from entering the country as he is deemed an undesirable alien."

The "30 Rock" star infuriated Philippine authorities when he told David Letterman that he was contemplating paying for a "Filipino mail-order bride" to father more children during an interview earlier this month.

That is so sad about Mike Tyson's daughter. I am hoping for the best, but it sounds grim.
