Lionel Richie Hospitalized in ICU After St. Louis Concert
Lionel Richie reportedly checked himself into a hospital in St. Louis, Missouri, after his show at The Muny in Forest Park on Saturday night.
Richie, 77, is currently in the intensive care unit, with doctors keeping a close eye on the singer, according to TMZ. The outlet reported on Monday, August 31, that the “Endless Love” artist may be experiencing “possible slight dehydration.”
The news comes just two days after Richie took the stage in front of thousands where he was forced to sit while performing his final song, “All Night Long.”
The news comes just three months after Richie — who shares son Miles, 31, and daughter Sofia, 27, with ex Diane Alexander, and daughter Nicole, 44, with ex Brenda Harvey — was rushed to the hospital after his show in St. Paul, Minnesota, in June.
Richie ended his show at the Grand Casino Arena early after feeling dizzy and “strange,” TMZ reported at the time.
Paramedics were reportedly waiting for him backstage and he was transported to the hospital by ambulance.
Richie’s next show is scheduled for September 26 at San Francisco’s Chase Center.
