Ray J hospitalized for exhaustion, jet lagAccording to his rep, Ray J needs some down time. The 31-year-old recording artist was in Vegas over the weekend for a product launch party as well as Sunday's Billboard Music Awards, and found himself in the hospital early on Monday suffering from exhaustion, his spokesperson tells CNN. He's still in the hospital, "and will remain there for treatment for exhaustion and jet lag," his rep adds.
Although it's been reported that stress from a rumored verbal tiff with Pat Houston, sister-in-law of the late Whitney Houston, over seating arrangements at the Billboard awards played a role, his rep says that's not a factor, and neither is alcohol or other substances. It seems Ray J arrived in Vegas to host a party for the Prince Reigns Hair Serum, which he's endorsing, on the heels of a "32-hour round trip from China where he performed a concert and had meetings regarding a new business," his rep says. "Upon landing, he immediately drove four hours to Las Vegas for the two events." TMZ reports that Ray J was found "extremely disoriented" in the early hours of Monday morning in his hotel room, and was immediately taken in to the hospital. Ray J's rep didn't indicate how long he'd need to stay for treatment. |

Heywood, as if we black people do not have enough problems with being treated minorities, and Latinos also have that problem, you as a Latino should be ashamed to make a comment like this. Maybe you should bond and realise that you as a Latino endure your own ridicule as a "minority" without doing the same to another in a minority group. Shame on you!
Why do people bother to read a news article and then turn around and ask, who is this person? Why bother to read the whole thing? And if anybody was watching the news about Whitney Houston when she died, then they must know who Ray J is. And most people even know who Brandy is, and Ray J is her brother. So ppl who have no life, stop hating and pretending you don't know who he is. He's an actor, a musician, and probably has more money than any of you would have in your lifetime.
My thoughts exactly. They know who he is.
Why are all these people here who claim they dont know who he is...but have an opinion on something they know nothing about, just saying...I dont know the sith, but exhaustion can come in different forms mental and physical

Wow, that's a helluva day. This is me patting you on the back, saying, "Good man/dad".
I know someone who did a 180 mile round trip commute, too. His wife refused to move. (Her cheating was more important) Needless to say, divorce, he moved, met someone new, & is living happily ever after.
Mike, you sound a little bitter.
Crack head need to get a job and his Momma need to get him some help instead of cashing her commission checks for his crack head appearances!
still exhausted from his movie with Kim.
Is this guy related to ice T, P diddy, and t pain?
Oh right "Exhaustion" Celebrity speak for they are a drug addict and they can't handle the withdrawal!
I hope Ray J gets better soon. He's a human being and I'm tired of people hating on others for no good reason.
no one's necessarily hating, just asking what he could possibly be exhausted from is a legitimate question...I mean, there's a whole article about it.
Yes Joe Blow, actually people are hating. And if you read the WHOLE article, you would see the explanation for his exhaustion. I'm sure there's more to it than that. I just don't understand why his hospitalization draws so many negative remarks.
What is he exhausted over???? He doesn't do anything!
For a second I had to question what you said. Then I realized... Kim KarTRASHian IS nothing.
Maybe he's too old for this
Holy sh1t!!! I can't believe they did a story on this... But who's Ray J??
You know who he is,someone with a great life and isn't dissing celebrities on a smart phone or a laptop lol.
