(HMG) – While the official results have not been released publicly, the mother of actor Corey Haim has revealed to Access Hollywood today (Thursday) that the 38-year-old former child star died of pulmonary congestion. Judy Haim, who has spent the last year battling breast cancer, told the newsmagazine she received an early courtesy call from the Los Angeles County Coroners Office today. She was told that a preliminary autopsy revealed that Corey had an enlarged heart, which caused his lungs to fill with water, leading to his death in the familys L.A. apartment early Wednesday morning. Four prescription medications were also found in Haim’s apartment, including Valium, Vicodin and Soma.

While no funeral date has yet been set, Judy also confirmed that her son will ultimately be laid to rest in their native Toronto. Judy is planning to move back to the city, where several members of the family already reside.

His former fiance, Tiffany Shepis, who was engaged to Haim briefly between 2008 and 2009, has previously said the actor long suffered heart problems.

“Every time he would go to a doctor they’d tell him he had really bad arrhythmia, probably due to clogged arteries,” she says. “They all said he should have it taken care of. But, being from Canada, his insurance was there, so he never went and got it done.”

[HMG] – For those feeling deprived by their late-night lack of Coco, we have good news – Conan O’Brien has just announced a 30-date nationwide tour.

Beginning on April 12 and featuring both Conan and late-night foil Andy Richter, “The Legally Prohibited From Being Funny On Television Tour” will open in Eugene, Oregon and go on to brighten thirty different cities in both the US and Canada.

Temptingly billed as “A night of music, comedy, hugging and the occasional awkward silence,” the first news of the upcoming party was announced by Conan himself via Twitter;

“Hey, Internet: I’m headed to your town on a half-assed comedy & music tour…I repeat: It’s half-assed, he tweeted.

Under the terms of his recent eviction Conan is forbidden to appear on TV until September at least. But he seems pretty sure he’s made the right choice;

It was either a massive 30-city tour or start helping out around the house OBrien explained in a press release.

And after being almost silent since he joined the service on February 24, Conan’s Twitter feed is now buzzing with news of the tour and the extra dates being added to cope with demand.

Good news: Just added second shows in San Francisco, Seattle, Vancouver, and LA. Bad news: Still no show in Guam. he just tweeted to his feathery fan-base of over 600,000.

But there will be some bitter memories – The LA Times says the tour is booked to stop at Universal Studios on April 25 — On the very same lot as the $25-million studio where he hosted the show. Also apparently O’Brien isn’t making a single cent off this comedy tour as sources tell TMZ that CoCo is doing the whole thing so he can employ his former “Tonight Show” staff. Roughly 40 people have been hired to work on the production — many of whom are “Tonight Show” alums.

If you fancy some tickets and you’ll need to move quick TeamCoco.com is now sharing them out…

[HMG] – In the first of what may sadly be several interviews given by people Corey Haim barely knew, reality actress Daisy De La Hoya says Corey’s death must have been accidental.

Claimed by some…okay, mostly herself…to have been dating Corey when he passed away early Wednesday, the 26-year old actress took to Twitter this morning to manage her grief.

“I’m sooooooo devastated right now,” she told her four feathery fans. “This is the worst day ever. I can’t believe this.”

Introduced to the 38-year old actor three weeks ago by his friend, Corey Feldman, La Hoya says she and Haim had ‘an amazing connection’ and were even building a romantic bond.

“We just connected straight away; she tells Radar. I recognized that he was a lost soul, we had the same behavior patterns, we had a lot in common.”

In fact their bond was so strong she hadn’t even seen Corey in over two weeks. But why let mere dates and good taste stop a paid photo-shoot? The lady continues;

“Corey was looking forward to the future, he was making plans,” she recalls. “He had a movie coming up and he was talking about directing. I can’t believe he’d have done this on purpose, it had to be an accident.”

And a friend of the loosely-linked pair tells reporters Daisy seemed almost concerned.

“Daisy knew Corey was doing a lot of drugs,” says the source. “She thought he was kind and talented, and wanted to rescue him. They were having a lot of fun getting to know each other and seeing what would happen. Corey told Daisy she was a beautiful person with a beautiful heart.”

And a tissue nearby in case there were cameras.

But when you’re the niece of the talented boxer, Oscar De La Hoya you learn a few moves, and Daisy soon goes in for the kill;

“It’s such a tragedy, he was so talented and had so much to offer. she tells the reporters. He was a sweet, caring, respectful person who just wanted to be loved.”

Daisy’s only previous claim to fame was as the runner-up on VH1’s tacky dating show, ‘Rock of Love.’ That somehow won her a show of her own ‘Daisy of Love.’ And it’s purely coincidence that the new season just started production.

Okay, maybe not…

Update: Law enforcement sources have leaked to TMZ, that the four pill bottles retrieved in the apartment of Haim’s mother are hydrocodone (Vicodin), diazepam (Valium), haloperidol (an antipsychotic med) and Soma (a muscle relaxer). TMZ hear’s that all 4 meds were prescribed on the same day by a prominent Los Angeles psychiatrist. Considering Haim’s prescription medication addictions one might think this could set the stage for an investigation of the dear doctor.

Jessica Simpson hasn’t lost hope of finding “Mr. Right”. She shared her thoughts on relationships today at the IHeartRadio presents “An Evening with Jessica Simpson” in Manhattan.

“Hopefully, I can find a man that understands my life and understands my purpose. I just need to find the right man,”

She then added:

“I hope I don’t die alone, that’s for damn sure,”

She also shared that it is a bit difficult to date when you are in the spotlight.

“It does affect certain decisions. Like, I’d love to go out to dinner with certain people I’ve met, but I can’t because everyone would be like, ‘Wow!!! They’re gonna get married!’

Aw, I have no doublt she’ll find a good guy to settle down with.

I said it the other day and I’ll say it again – I am really liking this darker shade of blonde on her. It even seems to have quite a red tinge to it. Here she is signing some autographs for fans after the presentation.
