Kanye West was reportedly rushed to hospital on Wednesday just hours before he performed in his final Melbourne concert.
The 37-year-old was allegedly taken to Epworth hospital in Richmond where he was given an emergency MRI at around 2pm in the afternoon, according to Woman’s Day.
A woman by the name of Loraine Kelly,who accompanied her daughter while she was having her own MRI scan, told the magazine that the Black Skinhead singer had his face partially concealed when he was ushered through the back entrance of the facility by his security team before being stretchered in to the MRI area.
Ms Kelly told Woman’s Day that doctors had fears that the rapper had had a seizure or was about to have a seizure.
‘Everyone was massively panicked,’ the onlooker told the magazine.
‘Everyone was moved out of the waiting and consulting rooms.’
Ms Kelly said one of Kanye’s security team had her daughter ejected from the room before her scan had been completed.
However, a source told E! Online that Kanye only attended hospital as a precaution.
‘[Kanye is] fine and didn’t have a major health scare or seizure,’ a source told the network.
‘He just suffered a migraine and went to the hospital simply as a precaution.’
Despite the alleged health scare the Yeezus rapper, who had been playing basketball earlier that day, reportedly left hospital around 4.30pm before appearing on stage at Rod Laver Arena to perform that night.
