Dave Chappelle -- I'm So F**king Tired, Bitch!

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.
Click to hear!
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.

16. Exactly what was he doing that got him so "exhausted" that he had to enter the hospital? Don't normal people just take a nap when they are "exhausted" instead of going to the hospital? I can understand if he was extremely DEHYDRATED that he need IV fluid, but this is just pr spin for something else that is going on, cuz NO ONE goes to the hospital because of "exhaustion."

17. He only went to the hospital because HE HAD TO. Don't believe any other excuse.

19. Sounds almost like paula abdul..
On her show - the staff overbook her appointments/appearances half the time she is hungry,starving, tired walking around like a zombie. I couldn't believe it one day poor paula didn't have any sleep for 12 hours.
These stars need to space out there schedules.. Make time to eat properly & get enough rest. Kelly Rowland passed out on stage in a concert.. I believe dave chapelle is exhausted...
Maybe he needs a better personal assistant also...

21. I would rather be a normal person & work 10 hour work days than a star...
They make a lot of money, but some of them don't get enough rest
Taping shows, making appearances all across the country.. It is hell.

22. You can't eat, drink and sleep in your own home for 12 hours? I think this sounds fishy. Dave you have so much talent, what's wrong buddy!

23. Poor Chappelle

A Blind Man can see he has a SUBSTANCE ABUSE PROBLEM.

He needs to reinvent his show but this time emphasize that these are COMEDIC IMAGES, then maybe his soul would be FREEIER,

Elite Black People in the industry said "oh Hell No" to his show then he disappeared.

#22...."WORDS"......in the words of the Geico caveman.......

"WHAT?"

It is not Hollywood, being a comedian, an actor or any other performer....it is about charecter and having self control.

25. Why didn't he just eat a sandwich, and go to bed? Would have been cheaper!

"his soul would be FREEIER?"

Now you are not only sanctimonious and idiotic, but you are also illiterate. It is "freer"

"Elite black people said "oh hell no" to his show" and than he dissapeared? Provide us with some of your wisdom grass-smoker....errrr I mean hopper.

What is "crystal" clear is that you are a crackhead and that is.....SO OBVIOUS

28. Funny how celebs are the only ones who go to the frickin' ER b/c of "exhaustion." Yeah right. Either they are the biggest p*ssies in the world OR they've been doing an a$$load of drugs and need medical attention in the form of IV's, etc. Hmmmmm. You'd think their publicists could come up with more plausible excuses than "exhaustion."

Normal people can have exhaustion problems and become dehydrated...
But most normal people have a normal schedule..
