Early this morning, news broke that Kanye West has been taken to UCLA Medical Center for psychiatric evaluation.This comes after several rants, most notably about his support for
Donald Trump and frustration with Beyonce and Jay Z. Then came the news
that the rapper had canceled all remaining dates on his Saint Pablo tour
following a set cut short in Sacramento.
TMZ has given an update about Kanye's hospitalization. Their report below:
According to law enforcement sources ... cops responded to a call for a
welfare check on Kanye around 1:20 PM PT. He was at his trainer, Harley
Pasternak's home at the time and was "acting erratically."
We're told police called L.A. Fire, and by the time paramedics arrived
Kanye was calmer ... but still resistant to going to the hospital. We're
told everyone -- his management and law enforcement -- convinced him it
was best he go. Law enforcement sources tell us Kanye was handcuffed to
a gurney (wheeled stretcher) during transport to the hospital ... as
standard protocol.
We got Pasternak outside his house late Monday evening. If he knows how Kanye's doing, he's not saying much.
Sources connected to Kanye tell us he was getting checked out by one of
his doctors for severe sleep deprivation while he was at Pasternak's
place ... and someone decided to call police.
The hospitalization comes on the heels of Kanye abruptly cancelling the
remainder of his Saint Pablo Tour, and launching into a verbal attack on
Jay Z and Beyonce.
As we told you, Kim Kardashian flew to NYC early Monday for her first
public event since the Paris robbery ... but she's now officially
bailed. It's a good bet she's wheels up for L.A.
