Comedian Tracy Morgan is reportedly “doing much better” after being rushed to the hospital after he collapsed at a dinner during the Sundance Film Festival in Utah Sunday night (Jan 22).
According to various reports, the “30 Rock” star was being honored at the Creative Coalition Spotlight Awards in Park City, Utah when he fainted outside the venue after he gave his acceptance speech.
Reps for the funnyman say he passed out due to “from a combination of exhaustion and altitude,” adding that no drugs or alcohol were found in his system after he was evaluated by medical professionals.
“Any reports of Tracy consuming alcohol are 100% false,” Tracy’s representative Lewis Kay said in a statement.
Making light of the situation, Tracy tweeted the following today:
Superman ran into a little kryptonite. The high altitude in Utah shook up this kid from Brooklyn.
