Bobby Brown Hospitalized in Heart Attack Scare

UPDATE: TMZ spoke with Phaedra Parks, Brown's attorney. She told us that Bobby did suffer a mild heart attack and attributes the cause to "stress and diet." "He has been examined," she tells us, "and doctors determined there is no blockage but inflammation of the heart." Parks says "Bobby is doing good. He is in good spirits. It's a serious condition, and I'm very concerned about him. Bobby is very happy with the outpouring of calls and messages. We ask people to keep him in their thoughts and prayers." As for this Saturday's performance at V100's Taste of Soul, she says "He has all of the intention to perform, but it's not clear yet if he will be able to do it."

UPDATE: Lee Bailey of EURWEB spoke to Brown this afternoon, who told him "Everything's all right with me. I got a clean bill of health and everything's fine," he says. "I'm ready to get on this road and do these shows and take care of what I gotta take care of."

TMZ has learned that singer Bobby Brown was hospitalized last night in what we're told is a "heart attack scare."

We're told Bobby felt some tightening in his chest and tingling in his arm and had his girlfriend/manager, Alicia, take him to the hospital.

He was staying with his father in Tarzana, Calif. when he felt ill, and was transported to Tarzana Regional Medical Center, where he is still hospitalized.

We're told that Brown could be in the hospital for one more day to undergo more tests.

We're also told Brown was so scared by the incident, he recorded a video message to give to his family in case he didn't make it. Hell to tha no Bobby! You'll pull through!

36. It breaks my heart to read such negative comments against one our countries best R&B entertainer’s. Bobbie has been thrilling the crowds every since 1980 when he was a very young teenager. The man has a heart of gold, and yet you always hear nothing but negative stories about him. How can anyone? Wish that another human dies who you don't know personally. Please soften your hearts and untie your twisted malice filled tongues. Think about his family and their feelings. Surely, someone in this world loves this man.

38. When are people going to stop referring to this nobody as a singer? He's as much a singer as I am. The only thing this piece of grap should be known for is being deadbeat dad.

39. Bobby, take care. The "cowardly haters" on this blog site live their miserable lives behind the safety of cyberspace.

40. Bobby, prayers go with you. Please leave the drugs alone. You have too much talent to continue ruining your body. Take this wake up call and get back to really living. One of your many fans....

41. Bobby Brown is a total loser. I don't know what Whitney ever saw in him. I guess since the other more successful guys she dated didn't want to marry her, she settled for Bobby Brown. They had their own money and fame, so they didn't have to marry her. Bobby did. He probably thought he found the goose that laid the golden egg when he married her. Marriage to him ruined her life and career. I hope she recovers. As for him, I hope he disappears into oblivion where he belongs. I wonder what his manager/girlfriend manages since he has no career or money. She's probably a loser too who's going to end up being his next baby's mamma. Eeeeeeeeewwwww!

42. I hope that Bobby will come through this and do well. I think that it is wrong to ever wish for the death of anyone, no matter how much one might dislike them. I know people that have recovered from the use of crack and are now very productive person in our society and making a very positive impact on the lives of many young people. We should never forget that God has His own ways of getting peoples attention and this maybe what it takes to help Bobby get his life in order. By the way, I never met anyone that is perfect, and I would guess that none of those people that wish that he dies are perfect either. Something to think about.

43. #34--you are right. It is mean spirited and none of us are perfect. In the eyes of the man upstairs we are all the same. I apologize for the mean spirited things I may have said. As you say someone loves him. I don't wish him any ill. Thanks for bringing my evil ways to me attention. I am sure Whitney and daughter must feel bad.
