British pop icon George Michael was reportedly rushed to the hospital last week after a friend made an emergency call for an ambulance, the UK tab Daily Mail reports:
His spokesman said today: 'In response to newspaper reports today, we can confirm George was admitted to hospital on May 22. He was discharged last weekend and is well and resting. He is very much looking forward to the release of his new single in July. Given the personal nature of this matter there will be no further comment.'
London Ambulance Service confirmed two ambulances were called at 8am on Thursday. ‘We were called just before 8 am on May 22. We sent two ambulance crews and staff treated one patient, a man, who was then taken to hospital,' a spokesman for the ambulance service said.
In 2013 Michael was rushed to the hospital after falling out of a car on a freeway. He nearly died in 2011 after coming down with pneumonia.
