Lionel Richie, the 77-year-old American music icon, was hospitalised in intensive care after becoming unwell following a concert in St. Louis, Missouri, on August 29. According to the Free Press Journal and Malay Mail, he performed at The Muny in St. Louis and appeared to struggle near the end of the show.
Richie self-checked into a local hospital and was admitted to the ICU due to possible slight dehydration, as reported by TMZ, cited in the Free Press Journal and Malay Mail. He was stable and expected to be discharged soon.
This hospitalisation comes after a series of health-related disruptions to Richie's tour with Earth, Wind & Fire. In June, a concert in St Paul, Minnesota, was cut short after Richie appeared to fall ill on stage, telling the audience he felt dizzy.
