Troubled singer Amy Winehouse fainted and tumbled down a flight of stairs in her London home Monday and was taken to the hospital.
Winehouse is said to have collapsed at home shortly after signing autographs for fans, shocking her friends, who rang 999. An ambulance was sent to her place and paramedics treated the singer.
“Amy was at home when she briefly fainted. Fortunately her manager’s assistant was there,” the Sun quoted a spokesman for the star as saying. “She quickly recovered and her father Mitch took her to hospital as a precaution,” the spokesman said.
“She’s fine. It was a brief thing and they took her in as a precaution. Her Dad drove her to a private hospital, but they’re unsure what caused it so aren’t taking any chances.” an onlooker said.
Doctors at the London Clinic in Marylebone have not diagnosed her condition or determined what might have caused her to faint, the BBC reports.
