Lionel Richie hospitalized following St. Louis performance: Report

  • On Saturday, singer Lionel Richie was hospitalized in the intensive care unit following his performance at The Muny in Forest Park, Louis, Missouri.
  • Witnesses reported that Richie struggled toward the end of his performance, and staff provided a chair for his finale song, "All Night Long," while sources told TMZ he is being evaluated for possible dehydration.
  • Writing on Instagram, Richie stated he is "heartbroken to postpone these two shows and cannot wait to be back," though his current condition remains unknown as of this report.
  • Doctors expect the performer to be discharged as soon as Tuesday; this follows a medical issue during his summer 2026 tour opening in June that forced him to end a show early.
  • TMZ and FOX News confirmed the situation from reporting in San Jose, with Richie under advisement by doctors to rest and return to full health.
