Dave Chappelle hospitalized for “exhaustion”

Over the weekend comedian Dave Chappelle was hospitalized for exhaustion. His publicist made this statement:
”It was exhaustion; he had been traveling. He’s fine.”
Now, whenever I hear a celeb has gone to the hospital for the excuse of “exhaustion”, I immediately think of drugs. I mean seriously people, the guy hasn’t even had a show in two years, and I don’t know what kind of traveling requires hospitalization. Has anyone ever seen the show Man vs. Wild? That type of “traveling” a.k.a surviving (alone!) without food, water or shelter (unless you catch it, find it, or build it yourself) is the only kind of traveling I would say needed a hospital stay afterward for “exhaustion”. Anyway the point I am trying to make is I absolutely hate it when celebrities use the exhaustion excuse. It drives me nuts.

I totally agree on the “exhaustion” thing - annoying as hell. I used to have this chart that showed what publicists REALLY mean. Like exhaustion = drinking, drinking = cocaine, cocaine = heroin. Something like that. Hilarious. Like we don’t know what’s realy going on.
