Jimmy Buffett hospitalized after fall from stage -- Update

Jimmy Buffett was hospitalized after falling from the stage during a concert in Sydney, according to the Associated Press. Australian media reported that the 64-year-old singer fell off the stage face first, banging his head. The audience was then urged to exit the theater, and the singer was transported to St. Vincent’s Hospital.

UPDATE: In an official post on Buffett’s website, a spokesperson wrote, “As you probably already know, Jimmy had an accident while performing in Sydney last night and was taken to the hospital. The doctors say he is doing well and will be released tomorrow. More info as we get it, and thank you for all of your well-wishes!”

  • UGH

    • UGH

  • Eric

    Was there a woman to blame?

  • KC

    Did he like Pina Colada?

    (wrong band)

    • Stephanie T.

      That would be Magaritas. Rupert Holmes was the Pina Colada guy.

      • d

        I thought Garth Brooks was the Pina Colada guy…

      • KC

        Did you even take the time to fully read what I wrote, you humorless dope?

  • Jason

    Must have blew out his flip flop.

  • Lady Gaga4Ever

    Never heard of him, therefore, he is musically irrelevant.

    • Stevie G

      he’s only been selling out arenas around the country for 35 years….but you never heard of him so he is irrelevant…yeah ok

    • abby

      well i’m sure a lady gaga enthusiast is a great judge of what’s musically relevant… and yes, he sells out arenas— in 30 minutes!!!

  • Bcav

    Yeah, show some respect and spell the name right. Buffett.

  • Stephanie T.

    So he blew out his flip flop, stepped on a pot top, he cut his heel and he had to cruise on back home? He’s Jimmy Buffett. He will be fine. : )

    jimmys the best, keep on sailing jimmy

    • Jimifan

      “We got sailboats, and conch shells and palm trees galore,
      But Jimmy Buffett doesn’t live in Key West anymore”

      You gotta admit it, he sold out more than arenas a long time ago.
