Tori Kelly, a two-time Grammy award-winning artist, was urgently admitted to a hospital on Sunday after a sudden collapse, according to close sources. The 30-year-old country singer was dining with friends in Los Angeles when she reportedly experienced an unusually rapid heartbeat before losing consciousness. Instead of an ambulance, Kelly was transported to Cedars-Sinai hospital in her own vehicle.
Kelly is currently undergoing treatment for blood clots that doctors found near several of her vital organs. The situation is described as “extremely serious” by an insider. Attempts to reach Kelly’s representatives for a statement have been made.
Kelly’s rise to fame began when she started posting videos on YouTube at the tender age of 14. Her talent was recognized when she auditioned for “American Idol” in 2010 at the age of 16. Despite being eliminated from the competition, she independently released her first EP, “Handmade Songs,” in 2012.
The following year, Kelly signed with Capitol Records. Her debut album, “Unbreakable Smile,” was released in 2015, and its lead single, “Nobody Love,” earned her a spot on the US Billboard Hot 100. Kelly’s talent was further recognized when she won two Grammy Awards in 2019 for Best Gospel Album and Best Gospel Performance/Song.
However, after the release of her latest album in 2020, Kelly took a step back from the limelight. Despite this, she was expected to make a significant comeback this year. In March, she released her latest single, “Missin U,” and surprised fans with a dramatic change in her look, trading her signature blonde curls for a darker shade.
In June 2022, Kelly addressed her fans’ concerns about the lack of new music. She expressed her own frustration on Twitter, explaining that the business side of the music industry often slows down the process of releasing new songs. Despite the delay, she assured her fans that the wait would be worth it, expressing gratitude for their patience and the support of her team.
