TMZ has confirmed Dave Chappelle went to the hospital this past weekend because he was wacked out. But Chappelle's rep told TMZ any wackiness was due to exhaustion -- not drugs.
The rep says Dave went to the emergency room for "physical exhaustion." She says he was treated with "food, water and sleep" for about 12 hours and then went home.
Callers to a DC 101's Elliot in the Morning radio show this morning reported that Chappelle entered rehab over the weekend. Not so, his rep tells TMZ.

He's moved on from the CC stuff and seems to be dealing with it. Go see the show if it comes close to you - He knows the GAME and has SEEN behind the curtain. Go to the show and get the secret!
Is the fact that he's in rehab some sort of surprise? I hope he finally gets the help he needs and never again walks away from a muti-million TV show.
Really don't care about another tired ass celebrety. We all have to work hard and we all get tired. So what? These people don't have a clue about how hard "REAL" people have to work and we don't make the money they make!
He had a nervous breakdown in SF and arrested in SF. TMZ do your homework and phone the SFPD.
Ever since he had to give back that 50million dollar contract things have been tough all over.
Too bad he can't afford "food, water and sleep"
Someone call Rick James...bitch
Cocaine is a helluva drug
he went to the hospital and was treated with "food, water and rest"?????
who are the people around these idiots that say, "hungry? tired? you want something to drink? better go to the hospital!!!!" because that's the only place that will feed you and let you rest.
so either, they are lying and he is in rehab, or not only is he exhausted, but he's not smart enough to feed himself.
I didn't realize you had to go the the hospital for "food, water and sleep". No wonder I'm exhausted
This man is soooo talented!!! I only wish the best for him. Come back healthy, Dave!!!
Why can't he be the high, funny, Chappelle I've grown to laugh at these past 10 years! Fame makes em wierd!
Dave, most people work hard for a living for alot less than you do and don't complain. So what if you are tired? who the hell cares? Pansy Ass lamo actor/so called comedian. Get a real job and work for a living. Then you'll know what tired really is!!!
Wait until he sees the bill for that food, water, and sleep. He'll wish he still had that 50 million!
Dave... Get your ass back to Yellow Springs and relax at HOME !!! It's peaceful and quiet here, sure it's hot.. but you have AC.
