Ray J HOSPITALIZED After Billboard Awards

Ray J crashed and burned the morning after the Billboard Music Awards ... and landed in the hospital ... TMZ has learned.

We're told Ray J was extremely upset after his confrontation with Whitney Houston's family -- notably Pat Houston -- during the awards ceremony. On Monday morning, someone went into Ray J's hotel room and realized the singer was "out of it" and couldn't get out of bed.

We're told Ray J was extremely disoriented and was immediately taken to the hospital by ambulance.

As for what happened ... it's looking like a combo of exhaustion and dehydration. Ray J had just returned from a quick, 32-hour round trip to China for business and when he landed he immediately drove 4 hours to Las Vegas for the awards show.

Ray J is still in the hospital. No word on when he'll be released.

Knowing RAY J its a selling point for something, man is a whore plain and simple, call him what he is, he gets no pass because he is a dude, guys get away with being whores and women get called out for it. Dude is a fake, he couldnt even profit of the Kardashian Tape hes still got bills while she has hills of cash.

I get that Ray J ain't worth 2 shits, but I am more concerned about Pat Houston being the family enforcer. Does she have access to Bobbi Kris' money?

I really think we are overestimating what she is "worth" financially, i know she was a mega star but you'd be shocked how quick it can be gutted by your loved ones. Michael Hutchence the late singer of INXS had a 30million dollar estate which basically all was from their final contract and licensing, his estate was gutted by the mother of his daughter, who also is deceased, his sister mother and brother all fighting over things etc....in the end i think there may be about 10% left for his daughter who is getting to an age where she has access to it. Basically what im saying is that death brings out greed and people that shouldnt get anything to begin with

Apparently that money was/is well protected and Bobbi Kris will be getting it when she is 25 and the other half when she is 30

Ray J?

Bobbi Kris?

Is this what celebrity has sunk to?

Are we supposed to care about star's siblings and offspring now?

I don't mean no harm but when I saw the pics of Bobbi Kris and Pat Houston from the Billboard awards I wanted to throw up. Something in the water just doesn't compute.

As for Ray J., is he trying to earn an Academy Award nomination without having been in one film? Boy bye.

I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

Exhaustion and dehydration, oh please. Take a nap and drink some water. bored2 There is always some drama involving this ninja.

His only claim to fame is the women he is associated with.

He's the brother of a famous female singer (Brandy)

He's the co-star of a sex video featuring a famous female celebrity (Kim Kardashian)

He was the boyfriend of a famous female singer (the late Whitney Houston)

None of his own "accomplishments" amount to a hill of beans.

Ray J Released From Hospital After Deadly Blood Clot Scare

Brandy and Ray JRay J is out of the hospital and back home after a deadly blood clot scare. The ‘One Wish’ singer was rushed to a Las Vegas hospital a day after the 2012 Billboard Music Awards after a whirlwind 32-hour round trip to China and then jetting back to Vegas for the award ceremony.

His rep explains:

“Ray J has been released from the hospital in Las Vegas and is back home in Los Angeles following an extensive battery of tests to make sure that he did not have a blood clot in his lungs which is potentially a deadly condition that can occur following a long haul plane flight.”

As you may recall, this is the same condition that took rapper Heavy D‘s life this past year.

If this is true! Get some rest Ray J!

5 Things You Didn’t Know About Ray J

*Ray J has been in the news recently for his hospitalization after the Billboard Music Awards this weekend.

He reportedly was in some sort of argument with a member of Whitney Houston’s family, Pat Houston.

The next morning, he was hospitalized for exhaustion and jet lag. The star has been much criticized for his relationship with Houston.

Here are 5 facts you didn’t know about the R&B singer:

1. Where was Ray J Born?

Ray J is so synonymous with Los Angeles, California for so long now that we think he was born and raised there. But the singing sensation was actually born in McComb, Mississippi to Willie Norwood and Sonja Bates-Norwood.

2. Guess who his cousin is…

One of Ray J’s cousins is one of the most iconic rappers of all-time, Snoop Dogg. He is actually Ray J’s first cousin not one of those extended cousins like we see certain celebrities claim they are.

3. The Actor

Ray J has appeared in six movies making the familiar transition for many musicians from music to the movie screen.

Here is the list of movies:

  • The Enemy Within (1994 TV Movie)
  • Once Upon a Time…When We Were Colored (1996)
  • Mars Attacks! (1996)
  • Steel (1997)
  • Christmas at Water’s Edge (2003)
  • Envy (2008)
  • A Day in the Life (2009)

4. The 8-year-old actor

In 1989, at the age of eight, Norwood began auditioning for and appearing in television commercials; he played the foster son in “The Sinbad Show, from 1993-1994.

5. Indiana Pacers

No, Ray J never played for the team or anything like that, but he was known for wearing a Pacers headband in his youth. While it was never confirmed why, it was interesting to see Ray J be so consistent with his headgear.

For all U Ray J fans..

Those ARE NOT 5 things we didn't know about Ray J. If you know anything about Brandy then you know about that fool ass brother of hers. Yeah I said it. I aint forgot about him in that club that time. Just crass and tasteless. Him and his whole freeloading crew! Plus, I feel he was a bad influence on Whitney and I believe the story about him trying to shop a Whitney/Ray J sex tape. He makes tapes with all his women. Foul!

Ray J was on TV before Brandy's first album and eventual show.

So what? Brandy's first sitcom that aired the same year was canceled quickly too. But to say Ray J is only in show business because of her or Kardashian is inaccurate. He and his sister started together. She just was more successful.

The so what is because that is not what I would call an "accomplishment" to where one could justify his relevance today. He was a child on a show that nobody watched. People did however watch Moesha and that show spawned a spin off that starred Monique who would later go on to win an Oscar. Just putting things in perspective.
