Boosie Badazz Hospitalized Over Blood Sugar Concerns, Doctors Advise Rapper To Rest

by

Boosie Badazz keeps himself so busy that people often forget about the daily health battle the rapper is faced with managing – diabetes. The illness has plagued the controversial artist since his late teens. While he does his best to manage his health, it’s proven difficult to be perfect over the years. As HipHopDX reports, he recently landed in the hospital due to a severe fluctuation in his blood sugar levels. On Sunday (August 27) night Boosie shared the news with fans via Instagram, letting them know that he plans on taking some time to get himself in check before he can continue to entertain the world.

“[SHOUT] OUT TO THE NURSES N DOCTORS AT BAPTIST MEMORIAL HOSPITAL FOR GETTING MY BLOOD SUGARS DOWN N GETTING ME N OUT‼” the 40-year-old wrote in the caption of a photo of his arm with a hospital bracelet wrapped around it. “NO COVID, NO DKA. JUST HAD TO GET SOME BAGS OF FLUIDS (BEEN TO 6 STATES N 4 DAYS). DOC SAY I NEED REST I AGREE ✅,” Boosie reflected. Obviously, touring isn’t at all easy on his body, especially not after beating cancer too.

Boosie Badazz Fans Show Support Amid Health Scare

The “Wipe Me Down” hitmaker said that he’ll be heading back home to his “big a** bed” this week. Boosie added that he’s looking forward to the potential rain showers coming up in the forecast.

On top of the support of his loved ones, the lyricist also has countless fans praising his decision to put himself first in the comment section. “You and the phone need to rest 😂❤,” one of them joked.

2023 has been a busy year for Boosie Badazz. Plenty of ups and downs have seen him landing in and out of the news cycle. On the more positive side of things this summer is the Louisana native’s Goin Thru Some Thangs LP on which he reflected on some of the battles he’s fought through his life so far. Tap into that at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Jamie Foxx Credits Sister For Saving His Life In Heartfelt Birthday Message

by

Over the last few weeks, Jamie Foxx has become more and more active as he continues to recover from the severe medical incident that hospitalized him back in April. After months of seemingly staged posts on social media, Foxx finally posted a video of himself thanking fans for their support during the ordeal. He later went on to drop a new freestyle verse on Instagram.

However, what exactly happened with Foxx’s health remains a tight-guarded mystery. Only Foxx’s family and attending physicians know the truth about what happened. Furthermore, it appears that they want to keep it that way, at least for the time being. Previously, the secrecy around Foxx’s condition, and the details of his hospitalization, led to the rise of many conspiracy theories and anonymous sources claiming to know the truth. Much like in the case of Bronny James’ recent cardiac arrest, complications caused by the COVID-19 vaccine became a common, and popular, conspiracy theory. However, a new post from Foxx appears to confirm that he was pretty close to dying at some point during the ordeal.

A post shared by Jamie Foxx (@iamjamiefoxx)

The revelation that Foxx was at one point close to death came in a birthday post for his sister, Deidra. “Happy birthday to my beautiful for sister @frequency11 “D”… you are magical you are beautiful you are the courageous lionesses #leoseason And without you I would not be here… had you not made the decisions that you made I would’ve lost my life…. I love you forever and ever happy birthday sis,” Foxx wrote alongside a collection of pictures.

Foxx’s daughter Corrinne appeared to take the lead on the public response to Foxx’s hospitalization. However, his Instagram caption hints at a larger family dynamic. As mentioned, it’s unlike that we will ever know what happened during the period that Foxx was in the hospital. However, we do now know that supposedly live-saving decisions were made by Foxx’s sister. However, the conspiracy sentiment still remained in the comments. At least for now, that element of the saga is not going away.

Madonna Out In Public Days After Hospital Health Scare

by

Only two weeks after being hospitalized, Madonna is back out on the streets of New York City. The pop legend was spotted with one of her friends on the Upper East Side, walking along East 80th Street and Lexington Avenue. According to the news outlet Page Six, she had on giant sunglasses, Nike shoes, and a wide-brimmed hat. She looked cheerful with her friend and seemed to be walking just fine (albeit taking her sweet time with it all).

This comes after Madonna’s June 24th hospitalization stemming from a bacterial infection. She was found unresponsive and rushed to the ICU for immediate treatment. After only a few days in the ICU, she was discharged and recovered at home, most likely with antibiotics and plenty of rest. Now, two weeks later, she’s back to enjoying life before she presumably goes off to do her twelfth solo tour. (Which might be on delay due to this abrupt health crisis.)

Madonna’s Strong Resiliency

@laurenconlin4 #MADONNA #madonnafans #madonnaforever #celebritysighting #laureninterviews #nyc #newyorkcity ♬ Lucky Star – Madonna

Above, podcaster Lauren Conlin snapped pictures of Madonna walking the NYC streets. “Guess who we just saw out and about today, looking great,” Conlin says to the camera. The video pans to two photos of Madonna leaning against a light pole, waiting to cross the street in the Big Apple. And while she’s out walking again, which is terrific news, she has yet to release a statement about the health scare or what this means for her upcoming tour.

Allegedly, Madonna had been feeling a low-grade fever for almost a month but did not alert medical professionals of this. She didn’t see a doctor because she didn’t want to have a reason to delay — or cancel — the Celebration tour. The pop star was going to kick things off on July 15th in Vancouver, BC. There are no updates from her or her manager, Guy Oseary. (Other than an expectation to return to full health via Oseary back in June.) It’s unclear whether she’ll be healthy enough to perform in five days’ time.

Jamie Foxx Reportedly In Stable Condition

by

It’s been a tough month for Jamie Foxx fans. The actor was suddenly hospitalized in April while on the set of his upcoming Netflix film, Back In Action. It was the latest delay for a production that had been plagued by fraud and bad weather. Despite assurances that Foxx was recovering, fans remained worried. Those concerns were exacerbated when individuals close to Foxx began asking fans to “pray for Jamie”.

However, the same day as the call for prayer went out, Foxx’s Instagram posted for the first time since his hospitalization. But the joy from that was short-lived as sources close to Foxx revealed that he was still in the same condition as he was before. Despite this, new information grants a clearer picture of where Foxx is at in his recovery.

Foxx In Stable Condition But Remains Hospitalized

According to sources who spoke with PEOPLE, Foxx is in stable condition but remains hospitalized for the time being. “Jamie is stable and not in a life-threatening situation now. “[Doctors] are doing more tests and want to be completely sure that he will be okay before allowing him to leave.” Furthermore, Foxx has been advised to “keep his stress levels down” once he is discharged. This suggests Foxx may need to spend additional time recovering at home once he leaves the hospital. However, as the nature of his medical emergency remains unclear, this is only speculation.

However, this may be difficult for Foxx, who apparently is not a fan of sitting back and relaxing. The hospital is “the last place Jamie wants to be” according to PEOPLE‘s source. “He has a lot of projects going on. He gets things done; he is focused and astute. What happened to him medically is serious enough to keep him in the hospital,” the source continued. Furthermore, there is currently no timetable for when Foxx will be discharged. “His family and friends are supporting him and are there for him. There has been no word on when he is leaving the hospital,” a different source told PEOPLE. Be sure to check back with HotNewHipHop for all the latest updates on Jamie Foxx’s situation.

Prayers Up For Jamie Foxx

by

Jamie Foxx’s recent medical scares have started to scare many of his Hollywood colleagues and friends. Recently, TMZ caught up with actor/comedian, Brandon T. Jackson. The gossip blog asked him how he felt about Jamie’s current health issues. Jackson leads a prayer saying, “I love you. My prayers are with you and your family.” He was speaking directly to Jamie Foxx in his prayer. Moreover, many celebrities like Jackson are expressing their concern for the multifaceted star.

Jamie Foxx has been in the hospital for three weeks due to a mysterious medical complication. After being revived on-set during filming for one of his upcoming films, Foxx has been in the hospital ever since with little to no updates on his status. However, there have been reports, along with a social media post from Jamie letting everyone know he appreciates all the love and is “feeling blessed.” Furthermore, it’s rumored that Foxx had a stroke while on set. However, nothing has been confirmed.

Prayers Up For Jamie Foxx

After the heartfelt prayer, Jackson added well wishes and hopes for a speedy recovery for his friend and colleague. Jackson finished his statement with, “faith without works is dead,” as he reiterated more prayers and loving sentiments. Although it still remains a mystery as to what ails Jamie Foxx or what caused his hospitalization. BTJ expressed that it’s important for entertainers to take care of themselves, with healthy doses of sleep. While it’s pretty tight lipped as far as updates go on Foxx, the singer/comedian/actor has broken his silence.

Since his social media post, albeit a little cryptic, it’s amazing to know Jamie is in good spirits. Although the actor hasn’t spoken out about his medical issues, more details have slowly started to surface. The day of the incident sources reported that, “He’s very lucky he got the treatment he did.” Sources also shared that the “Blame It” singer suffers from high blood pressure, which can lead to blood clots and strokes. According to the source, “Doctors believe this was a long time coming, and really, if they hadn’t acted fast, Jamie might well have been a goner.” Thankfully Jamie is okay and in better spirits. Hopefully he can leave the hopsital soon and have a speedy recovery. Prayers up for Jamie Foxx! Leave a prayer or words of encouragement in the comments below!

Toni Braxton Opens Up About Medical Emergency

by

Toni Braxton has had some pretty serious health scares in recent years. Additionally, TMZ caught up with the R&B icon to get an update on how she’s doing. The singer shared her survivor story after recently going through life-threatening heart surgery to unclog a main heart artery. Moreover, Toni Braxton told the gossip blog that she learned important lessons about taking care of your body. The star has the most prevalent form of lupus, systemic lupus erythematosus. Not only that, in a previous interview the songstress revealed her artery was 80% blocked.

Imagine not knowing one of your main arteries is almost completely BLOCKED? Accordingly, Toni revealed that she has been hospitalized on more than one occasion. She also said she sees the importance of regular health check-ups. However, the R&B legend conceited that she never took it seriously enough. When TMZ caught up with Toni Braxton, she told them she was just happy to be out and about since her surgery in September.

Toni Braxton Urges Everyone To Listen To Their Bodies

Furthermore, the “Un-Break My Heart” singer told the paparazzi that she won’t be touring at the moment and can’t sing how she wants to right now. However, she’s slowly getting reacclimated to the studio. Toni Braxton promises she’ll be 100% for her next live shows. Since the passing of her sister Traci last year due to cancer, Toni told the publication that she took the loss hard. She was so deep in mourning that she let her own medical checkups fall to the wayside.

Reportedly, she’s imploring fans to pay attention when their body’s talking to them and stay up-to-date with doctor visits. Toni Braxton has been transparent when it comes to talking about her lupus. Over a decade ago, she was diagnosed with the disease. Since then, she’s had her fair share of hospital visits, and multiple complications stemming from lupus. Toni was hospitalized with blood clots in 2012. This time around her health scares were more of a scare for her, as she was extremely close to having a heart attack. Thankfully she checked in with her doctor, if she hadn’t, she may not have survived said Braxton. Let us know what you think about all this. Does this motivate you to go see your doctor?

Jamie Foxx “Steadily Improving” In Atlanta After Health Scare

by

According to a source who spoke to PEOPLE, Jamie Foxx is “steadily improving” following his medical emergency and hospitalization. For those unaware, his daughter Corinne Foxx broke the news in an Instagram post. “We wanted to share that, my father, Jamie Foxx, experienced a medical complication yesterday,” she wrote. “Luckily, due to quick action and great case, he is already on his way to recovery. We know how beloved he is and appreciate your prayers. The family asks for privacy during this time. Much love, The Foxx Family.”

Not only that, but apparently the situation could’ve been tragic according to other reports from TMZ. “We’re told his condition was serious enough that Jamie’s family, some of whom were not in town, came to the hospital,” they claimed. “He’s communicating now, and that’s good news.” To elaborate, Foxx was in Georgia filing the Netflix comedy Back In Action, which now faces a slew of production issues given Foxx’s hospitalization. Interestingly enough, the film was already facing a lot of issues, such as the 55-year-old being subject to a $40,000 scam while on set.

Jamie Foxx Is Slowly Recovering After Hospitalization

Furthermore, LeBron James was one of many celebrities and fans who wished the Django Unchained star well. “Sending my thoughts and prayers to the heavens above to my brother @iamjamiefoxx!!!!” LeBron wrote on Twitter. “Get well and back to yourself SOONER THAN LATER! God willing.” Even though people expressed their support on social media, they did so without knowing any symptoms or barely any details as to the incident. In addition, his state of recovery has not yet resulted in a release date from the hospital or a date to continue filming.

Even though the set of Back In Action is quite hectic and disorganized at the moment, there’s hope that Foxx will feel better very soon. As quite the beloved actor with a lot of range and chemistry, this certainly raised the upcoming film’s profile in an unfortunate way. Hopefully Foxx’s scary situation and prompt recovery will get some of those bad vibes out of the studio. Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Jamie Foxx.

Hailey Bieber Reflects On Her “Mini Stroke” 1 Year Later

by

Hailey Bieber reflected on suffering a “mini stroke” one year after the fact on her Instagram Story, Friday. In doing so, the 26-year-old model shared various information about Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO). With the condition, a hole exists between the left and right sides of her heart.

“Can’t believe it’s been one year since I suffered a mini stroke that led to my PFO diagnosis,” Hailey said. “Given that it’s the one-year mark from such a life-changing event, I wanted to share all the information I’ve learned about PFO and share resources to donate.”

Hailey noted that PFO is the most common type of congenital heart condition, and affects 20% of people “with 60% occurrence among 1st degree relatives.” She cited information from UCLA Health, where she went after her mini-stroke. “PFO is a passage way between the left and right atria of the heart. It exists in everyone before birth, but in most people closes after birth but doesn’t close for around one out of every four people,” she further added in another slide on her Instagram story.

Hailey first detailed suffering the mini-stroke during a YouTube video published in April 2022. She explained that she was having a typical morning and eating breakfast with her husband when “and all of a sudden I felt this really weird sensation that kind of like traveled down my arm from my shoulder all the way down to my fingertips and it made my fingertips feel really numb and weird.”

“The conclusion was that I had a blood clot that traveled into my heart. And instead of what typically happens if you have a small blood clot is the heart will filter the blood clot to your lungs. And your lungs will absorb the blood clot because the lungs are so big, and they can handle it,” she continued. “What happened with me is my blood clot actually escaped through the flap or the hole in my heart, and it traveled to my brain and that is why I suffered a TIA.”

Film Icon Richard Gere Recovering From Pneumonia

by

Following a recent health scare, Richard Gere’s wife is offering an update. The actor doesn’t make many headlines these days, but his fans swarmed the internet when it was learned he was recently hospitalized. According to TMZ, the entertainment icon was on vacation with his wife, Alejandra Silva, and their two small children when his bad cough worsened. Things became so bad Gere decided to check himself into a local hospital.

It was there that he was diagnosed with pneumonia. The outlet further stated that Gere stayed in a facility overnight as his illness was treated. The actor was reportedly released the following day but was prescribed antibiotics. His wife shared a new photo to Instagram with a caption suggesting Gere was in a better place than days ago.

In her photo, Silva only shows herself with her two small children as they walk across the shores of a beach The family was reportedly celebrating Silva’s 40th birthday, and it seemed everyone was ill at some point or another. “Thank you all for the birthday wishes,” she wrote in the caption. “After almost 3 weeks of everyone being sick in our family, today finally I feel much better! Thank you for all the love ❤ I give it all back to you! 💫 #happybirthday #happy40.”

Gere and Silva privately married in early 2018. Their friends told news outlets that Gere was excited about “this half of his life” because “he is settled, confident, and doing what he likes.” The couple welcomed their first son together in 2019, and the second arrived in 2020. In the earlier days of his career, Gere was promoted to be a playboy of sorts; the actor was linked to several women in the industry. They include the likes of Priscilla Presley, Kim Basinger, Diane von Fürstenberg, and Barbara Streisand.

Although his wife has offered a positive update, Gere nor his reps have issued any formal statement. His diagnosis concerned fans because of the unpredictability that pneumonia brings; some recover quickly while others succumb to the illness. Gere’s supporters are happy to hear that he’s on the mend. Check out Silva’s post above.
