Lionel Richie is currently recovering after being hospitalized amid his summer concert tour.
TMZ is reporting that Lionel checked himself into a hospital in St. Louis, Missouri over the weekend after wrapping up his Saturday night concert at The Muny.
Lionel was admitted to the intensive care unit “to have some tests run” after he fell ill during the show.
What happened to Lionel Richie?
The cause of Lionel‘s hospitalization is reportedly “slight dehydration” and the singer will hopefully be discharged from the hospital on Tuesday.
During his Saturday night show, Lionel reportedly needed to sit down for his final song, “All Night Long.” His team brought him a chair on stage after he appeared to be struggling, according to TMZ.
Thankfully Lionel will have some time to recover before he heads back on the road because his website lists his next show as September 26.
Back in June, Lionel was hospitalized after he got sick on stage at another show. He told the crowd at that performance that he was feeling “dizzy” while performing and he had to sit down. He was reportedly met with paramedics backstage and taken by ambulance to a hospital as a precautionary measure.
Lionel recently took a jab at two popular entertainers who are currently on tour together.
