Rick Ross spotted at Memphis wing restaurant

After back-to-back health scares while on the road this weekend, Rick Ross was photographed safe and sound at a chicken wing restaurant in Memphis, reports TMZ.

Thanks to a tweet from DJ Khaled yesterday, we know that Ross was "good" (and sipping on a beverage), as Khaled's Twitpic reveals.

Ross, born William Leonard Roberts II, was aboard a Delta flight to Memphis Friday when he suffered an unidentifiable medical emergency and was taken to a Florida hospital.

He then boarded another flight for Memphis,  but that plane trip was also derailed when he suffered a seizure and was rushed to a Birmingham, Alabama emergency room.

It's unclear how Ross finally made it to Memphis, although we do know that once he arrived there, that wing stop was one of his destinations. One place he didn't show up was Memphis'  FedExForum, where he was supposed to perform on Friday night. According to Billboard, he also canceled an appearance in Greensboro, North Carolina on Saturday.

Ross is still scheduled to perform at Atlanta's Tabernacle on Friday, according to the venue's website.

    Obesity + excessive cocaine use = seizures. He's gotta either give up the buckets o' wings or the yayo.

    not sure why bloggers think Ross’s seizures are related to his massive weight. Seizures are caused by electrical disturbances in the brain — not in the stomach.

    I think family is the worst. All they do is want. Everytime I see them the first thing I notice is their hand stuck out in front of them wanting money. I dont even call them family. They are just relatives. Relatives are THE WORST.

    This guy needs a nutritionist and a personal trainer. This won't be his last health scare unless he starts taking care of himself, and even if he does take care of himself, it could be too late. The damage might already be done.

      How was this article racist? If the singer was at a chiken wing resturant, then that is where he was at. Either get off your high-horse and realize that not everyone is out to get other races or get off the internet.
