Steven Spielberg lost a kidney Monday, but we're left to speculate about the reason why. Spielberg, 52, underwent surgery at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center after "an irregularity" was discovered during a routine physical exam. In keeping with the grand Hollywood tradition of shrouding stars' illnesses in secrecy, Spielberg's spokesman, as well as hospital officials, declined to say exactly what that "irregularity" was. Spielberg, who directed Saving Private Ryan and a string of other hit movies, is expected to make a full recovery.
