He stopped eating a week ago so he won't have to go to the bathroom and is using a catheter, plus, he's been warned the feat may leave him blind. Fun! But nay, fear is not a factor for Blaine - who told Ripa he's only scared of beatles and spiders. Ripa, on the other hand, had her greatest fear realized while vocalizing it: "looking like a basset hound on TV." [Live With Regis & Kelly]
