His rep confirmed that there was the possibility of death if it weren’t for his girlfriend, Omarosa Stallworth’s efforts. Apparently the Apprentice star performed CPR on Duncan until the paramedics arrived. Recent reports state that Duncan is in good health:

We’re told tests were performed Monday and doctors determined Michael has a “very strong heartbeat” and they are optimistic. That’s especially good news because Michael has been sedated ever since his heart attack and doctors aren’t sure what his condition will be — worst case scenario could involve paralysis, although that’s looking less likely.

Many celebrity peers tweeted their prayers and concerns for the Sin City actor:

Hope he's doing better. But why couldn't it have been Omarosa instead.
