Stressed-Out Bow Wow Rushed to Hospital

Rapper Bow Wow (he's not lil' anymore, people!) was rushed to a Cincinnati hospital Thursday night after a performance there.

According to a statement issued by his record label, the 20-year-old is suffering from "stress and exhaustion." They also said that although his tour with Chris Brown, Sean Kingston and Soulja Boy is heading to Chicago tonight, Bow Wow won't be on stage.

As for his Chicago fans, a Sony rep said, "He loves them and will be sure to come back to Chicago soon!"

16. I know this is going to fall on ignorant ears but I am going to speak my peace anyway. Exhaustion is a very real and very serious ailment. If not treat immediatley AND properly it can cause other health problems. To say this young man has OD is not only racist it is a serious sign that you lack respect. There are as many white entertainers on drugs, getting DUI's and promoting the degradation of our children as black entertainers. The comments I have witnessed on this blog, makes me ashamed to be a caucasian. Allow me to apologize to the black americans, asian americans, latinos and any other race that may have been attacked by someone white. Not all of us think the same. God Bless

17. To #9:

Nobody brought up about anything that had to do with some white or asian executive from a label stressing him out, so why the hell did you have to bring that up for? Really now, that was uncalled for! Same to #12, if I am misreading you, what the hell does "black 'musician'--drug overdose, what an amazing surprise" mean? You guys are something else.

Clearly due to their ganster self-promoted lifestyle - rappers are guilty until proven innocent by a jury of their caucasian peers in Boise, Idaho.

21. Drugs??? Since WHEN did Blacks take the Lead on this??? WHO Goes to REHAB ALL THE TIME ????

Ask Lindsey, Britney, Robert Downey Jr., Kate Moss and her sometimes Boyfriend Pete Doherty, Amy Winehouse (REALLY NEEDS REHAB). Anna Nicole Smith.....

And the list goes on.......

22. John, are you 12? Entertainers have always been admitted to the hospital for exhaustion, Liz Taylor was famous for it and it wa legit. Some entertainers do take their craft seriously, they eat, live and breathe it 24/7.

25. ****. What kind of crap is this. Admission to a hospital for exhaustion is just a euphemism for "Drugs."

Think about it, do you know anyone in your entire life who has ever been admitted to a hospital for exhaustion? This guy is only 20 years old. My guess is he overdosed.

Now, hold up there, I myself was admitted to the hospital for exhaustion.....




oh, wait, no, it was drugs. Sorry, you're right.

27. Can someone tell me what the hell EXHAUSTION is? I work my a$$ off and get tired too but I ain't never been to the hsopital for it. Is Exhaustion some kind of an illness that only celebrities get?

28. I swear you people are the most racist a$$holes. What does Bow Wow do to anyone that is disrespectful or anything in his raps? He barely curses in his raps, so where is all the negativity stemming from? When Mary-Kate or Ashely Olsen. Britney, Hilary Duff and Lindsey passed out from exhuastion its not drugs huh? Like I said the other day, get your a$$es off your shoulders and stop making it seem as if Whitey cant do any wrong.. This boy obviously doesnt need his father, he has made it in this entertainment business with just his mother... I dont understand the jealousy.... Too bad you white people have to hide behind computers to tell people how you really feel...
And plenty of white people have no father.. Look at Tom Brady, he doesnt even want that runt either... Angelina Jolie hates her father, so for some people it doesnt matter. Britney and Lindsey Lohans fathers were alcoholics and drug addicts, but its okay for them, huh? LMAO you guys are going to rot in your NAZI hells.

29. Stimpy, you read my mind. I know I'm personally dead tired after HAVING to work all day, and the work and stress continue when I get home. Although I respect anyone who works hard to create their wealth, these celebrities who spread themselves thin when they don't need to, or shuck their responsibilities and party all night (Lindsay Lohan) before citing "exhaustion" amuse me. Now, I don't think he's on drugs, but I bet Bow Wow puts in time on stage, then at the club, then at the after-party, and so on. Right. Maybe cut out all the extra activities and mellow out instead of taking hospital resources away from people who really need them.
