American Idol finalist Phillip Phillips, who has suffered from ongoing kidney problems throughout the competition, has been ordered by doctors to undergo “immediate” surgery.
The singer refused treatment when he returned to his hometown of Leesburg, Ga., last weekend in order to adhere to the show’s rigorous shooting schedule. And sources inside the production tell The Hollywood Reporter that Phillips has been experiencing pain “so severe” that he’s been granted permission to sit out the weekly high-concept (and physically exhausting) Ford video shoots for several weeks now.
“I’ve been sick, so they gave me those days to rest,” Phillips told THR when asked about his absence. The network has no comment on Phillips’ health status.
Phillips received emergency medical treatment in March for extreme abdominal pain but made it back in time for the Top 13 results show. He’s a favorite to take the title when the winner is announced May 23 on Fox.

Will Jericho live to see another day?
‘Common Law’ Premiere: Michael Ealy, Warren Kole Struggle to Be Cordial (Exclusive Video)
USA Network Sets Premiere Date for ‘Common Law’
Reports surfaced that the hourlong drama that starred Skeet Ulrich and ran on CBS from 2006-08 may be revisited on Netflix.
When The Hollywood Reporter recently asked Common Law executive producer Karim Zreik — who worked on Jericho as a co-EP when it was on the air — about the prospects, he was all for it.
“We’d be ecstatic if that happened,” he says. “From what I hear, sides are talking. I wish I knew more. As you know, the fanbase of that show were incredible and they’ve all started reaching out since this report came out. It’s exciting and I know the cast is excited too.”
Jericho, which centered on the residents of a fictional Kansas town in the aftermath of nuclear attacks on 23 major cities in the contiguous United States, has had a unique run. After initially getting the axe after one season, CBS brought back the cult favorite for a second round before canceling it for good.
Zreik wasn’t worried about going back into the Jericho world and creating more stories to tell.
“Story-wise, [Jericho] has been living on in the comic book world,” he says. “It’s all the writers from the series led by Dan Shotz. We’ve done three issues already. Story-wise, we’ve got ample story to tell, that’s not a concern. I think we’re just waiting to see if a deal can be brokered.”
