American rapper and producer Kanye West was rushed to a hospital in Australia early this morning. Page Six reports Kanye suffered from migraines while on tour in Australia. One of his migraines was so severe that he felt nauseated and nearly blacked out.
The “I Am a God” rapper got an MRI during his hospital visit but felt great and went on to perform a concert at a stadium in Melbourne Wednesday night, E! News said.
Kanye is “fine and didn’t have a major health scare or seizure,” a source told the network. “He just suffered a migraine and went to the hospital simply as a precaution.”
The rapper was resting at a Sydney hotel late Wednesday night with his wife Kim Kardashian and their daughter North West, E! News said.
Doctors are unsure what causes migraines. But certain food additives such as tyramine and monosodium glutamate (MSG) are known triggers of migraines. Additives that contain Tyramine include chocolate, alcohol, aged or fermented cheese, hot dogs and deli meats, soy products, nuts, citrus fruits, pineapples, strawberries, and artificial sweeteners (Aspertame, NutraSweet, Equal, etc.).
