Kanye West was rushed to the UCLA Medical center after he started acting erratically while at his trainer's home. This comes after the rapper suddenly canceled the rest of his Saint Pablo tour even though he still had about 21 shows to do.
Kanye West has been making rants on his tour. He had already ranted against friend Jay-Z and his superstar wife Beyonce, and recently he even announced that he would be running for President in 2020. He also said that he would've voted for Donald Trump in the election, which made the crowd boo him. His most recent concert lasted a mere 30 minute before he dropped his mic and pronounced the show over.
Prior to being brought to the hospital, Kanye West was with his trainer Harley Pasternak when police were called for a 'welfare check'. Los Angeles Times reports that the personal doctor of Kanye West, Dr. Michael Farzam made the 911 call. Talking to the police, Farzam said: "Jim Jones" (West) was suffering from temporary psychosis.
Apparently, Kanye West tried to assault a staff member working in Harley Pasternak's gym. TMZ reports that Kanye West was handcuffed to the gurney, as it was a standard operating procedure to be able to be transported to the hospital. His wife, Kim Kardashian, was supposed to make her first public appearance since the Paris robbery incident but had to cut her trip short to go back to her husband.
ET Online reports that the mental breakdown was caused by sleep deprivation. Kanye West has too much on his plate, insiders say. He's a father, with multiple businesses and if you add what happened to Kim Kardashian in Paris, then he's bound to be feeling anxious and stressed.
Kanye West is currently still at UCLA Medical Center and placed under involuntary psychiatric hold. His wife Kim Kardashian has not made any public statement regarding her husband's perceived temporary mental breakdown.
