Lionel Richie is reportedly in intensive care at a St. Louis hospital following his Saturday night performance at The Muny in Forest Park. Sources tell TMZ that Richie checked himself in after the show for precautionary testing, with doctors examining possible slight dehydration. He is hoping to be discharged Tuesday. Concertgoers noted Richie appeared to struggle near the end of the show, requesting a chair to sit while performing his closing number, “All Night Long.” This marks his second medical incident in months. In June, Richie was rushed to a hospital in St. Paul, Minnesota, after feeling “dizzy” and “strange” onstage, cutting that performance short.
