Wyclef Jean recently experienced a scary medical situation that caused The Fugees co-founder to be hospitalized. The “911” singer spoke with TMZ shortly after he spent a night in the ER. He said concern grew after his return from Miami to L.A.  Initially, he visited his family doctor after he began to feel numbness on the right side of his face. His doctor sent him to the ER. While there, he underwent a few tests and requested an overnight stay for monitoring. Stress-related exhaustion was found to be the cause. 

He shared a video the day before his chat with TMZ to let his followers know the importance of rest. “Sometimes we forget that our body is our temple,” Wyclef wrote. “Be back soon,” he added, hinting at a hiatus.
