Ray J admitted to hospital in Las Vegas
According to a recent report by TMZ, Ray J was admitted to a Las Vegas hospital on Wednesday. Sources close to the singer have claimed that he is suffering from a “severe” case of pneumonia and heart pains. The singer has received an echocardiogram and X-rays.
The reported medical issue comes four years after Ray J battled another serious bout of pneumonia in October 2021. At the time, the “Wait a Minute” hitmaker told TMZ that the doctors initially placed him in the COVID wing of the hospital before figuring out the official diagnosis.
“I thought it was over. I started praying and knew God is good, so I just kept praying,” Ray J told the outlet when doctors assumed he had COVID. However, all COVID tests came out negative, and the singer was removed from the wing two days later. According to insiders, Ray J reportedly thought that the illness stemmed from his “busy schedule” and “constant travel.” Following the trip to the hospital, the singer reportedly “realized he needs to take care of his health.”
Ray J’s recent pneumonia scare comes a few weeks after the singer shared a bizarre update on his Instagram. He posted a reel on December 13, 2025, announcing that he is filming a new show called “Celebrity Hitchhiker.” “I’m hitchhiking right now to try to get a place to stay tonight,” the singer stated. “Hopefully I can meet a new family, and it can take me in and teach me about their rules and their goals and life, and then send me on my way to the next destination.”
Ray J told his followers that he was in Tampa, Florida, all by himself, and he needed to get back to Los Angeles. “I do have a change of clothes right here in my bag. I need to get back before December 22nd, so I’m on a Celebrity Hitchhiking scouting run,” he added.
