Comedian Bernie Mac died at Northwestern Memorial hospital early Saturday morning, according to Sun-Times Columnist, Stella Foster. He was 50.

Stella Foster: Get well, Bernie
The columnist also said she was deeply saddened to receive such a phone call just an hour after Mac was pronounced dead.
"It brought tears to my eyes because Bernie Mac has always been my all-time favorite entertainer and comedian. It pains me to have to report that," Foster said during a phone interview on Saturday morning.
On Friday, a spokeswoman for the actor, whose real name is, Bernard McCullough, said that he had been responding well to treatment for the illness.
Publicist Danica Smith said Thursday in a statement that Mac's condition is ''stable.'' Smith first announced on August 1st that Mac was hospitalized in Chicago.
Smith has said the pneumonia isn't related to an inflammatory lung disease Mac also has. That condition has been in remission since 2005.
Foster noted that last weekend, several web sites reported wrongly that the comedian died.
Mac made waves last month with off-color jokes during a fundraiser for Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama.
The comedian starred in the critically acclaimed Fox television series ''The Bernie Mac Show.'' His film credits include roles in the ''Ocean's Eleven'' franchise.
The actor's upcoming movies include "Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa" starring Ben Stiller, Chris Rock and David Schwimmer; and "Soul Men" with Samuel L. Jackson and Isaac Hayes.
There is no word on whether public services will be held.

Comedian Still Hospitalized
CHICAGO - Rumors circulating about the supposed death of comedian Bernie Mac have been confirmed to be untrue. The comedian is apparently recovering in a Chicago area hospital in good condition and expected to make a full recovery.
According to a CBS News report, prank phone calls have been rolling into newsrooms and radio stations alleging the "King of Comedy" has died -- a statement his publicist calls "absolutely untrue."
Mac, 50, who lives in the south suburbs, is responding well to treatment and should be released soon, Mac's publicist Danica Smith said Friday.
Smith said she received multiple phone calls from news outlets Saturday asking her to confirm whether or not Mac has died.
"It is a very horrible rumor," Smith said. "It is absolutely untrue. Nothing has changed from yesterday."
Smith didn't know what day Mac entered the undisclosed Chicago hospital. She said the pneumonia is unrelated to Mac's sarcoidosis, a chronic disease that can inflame tissue, particularly in the lungs. Smith said Mac's sarcoidosis has been in remission since 2005.
Mac's wife, Rhonda McCullough, has been with him at the hospital.
"He's doing great and hopes to get out soon," Smith said. "He's Bernie -- he's one of the best guys you'll meet."
Mac's long list of television and film credits include "The Bernie Mac Show, ""Ocean's 11," "Transformers" and "Charlie's Angel: Full Throttle."
