Anthony B Collapsed Hospitalised

KINGSTON, STAR- Singer collapsed after performance in Texas

International reggae artiste Anthony B collapsed shortly after his performance at a Dallas, Texas, nightclub last Saturday night.

The artiste has since been hospitalised at the Methodist Dallas Medical Center in Texas.

According to the deejay's publicist, Ronnie Tomlinson, Anthony B is alert and is awaiting an official diagnosis from the doctors.

"At this time there is no confirmation from the doctors as to the exact diagnosis, but we strongly believe that Anthony B has been overworked and strongly suspect dehydration," she told THE STAR.

busy schedule

Tomlinson went on to say that The Tease Her artiste's busy schedule may have been a factor in his illness.

"His schedule has been crazy. He's been travelling to Europe, Africa, the UK, India, Australia and the United States, with barely a break in-between," she said.

According to Tomlinson, Anthony B was also scheduled to leave for Europe today for a series of shows.

"He was supposed to go to Europe until about mid-November. I can see that at least the first two weeks might have to be put off," she told THE STAR.

Four days ago, the artiste had tweeted that fans should say a prayer for him because he was not feeling well.

It is still unknown how long he will be admitted for.

The artiste has also been busy promoting his album Freedom Fighter, which was released earlier this year.
