Bobby Brown Hospitalized in Heart Attack Scare

UPDATE: TMZ spoke with Phaedra Parks, Brown's attorney. She told us that Bobby did suffer a mild heart attack and attributes the cause to "stress and diet." "He has been examined," she tells us, "and doctors determined there is no blockage but inflammation of the heart." Parks says "Bobby is doing good. He is in good spirits. It's a serious condition, and I'm very concerned about him. Bobby is very happy with the outpouring of calls and messages. We ask people to keep him in their thoughts and prayers." As for this Saturday's performance at V100's Taste of Soul, she says "He has all of the intention to perform, but it's not clear yet if he will be able to do it."

UPDATE: Lee Bailey of EURWEB spoke to Brown this afternoon, who told him "Everything's all right with me. I got a clean bill of health and everything's fine," he says. "I'm ready to get on this road and do these shows and take care of what I gotta take care of."

TMZ has learned that singer Bobby Brown was hospitalized last night in what we're told is a "heart attack scare."

We're told Bobby felt some tightening in his chest and tingling in his arm and had his girlfriend/manager, Alicia, take him to the hospital.

He was staying with his father in Tarzana, Calif. when he felt ill, and was transported to Tarzana Regional Medical Center, where he is still hospitalized.

We're told that Brown could be in the hospital for one more day to undergo more tests.

We're also told Brown was so scared by the incident, he recorded a video message to give to his family in case he didn't make it. Hell to tha no Bobby! You'll pull through!

76. To Post # 65, I could not have said it better myself. I met Whitney Houston in Washington DC when I was in the Honor Guard, I met quite a few people that night but between her and Aretha Franklin I don't know who's ego was bigger and their lack of respect for "Little People" who put millions in their pockets and put them on their pedastals. We all have someone in our families that are a crackhead or deadbeat or worse but we don't wish harm on them and if they passed tomorrow would be missed. Some of you should be ashamed, in this age how can we comment on Don Imus when WE yes I said it WE act like this, it just makes those Don Imus' in the world right to think we are less than people.

78. Look for all you pissed off Bobby Fans, who grew up watching him and believe he still got it. I'm sure Bobby is glad that any of us have anything to say about him. In Bobby's situation any press is good press. He might of faked the heart attack because he realized none of us give a damn any way. The fact remains the same, sooner or letter what you do catches up to you. Bobby is a reminder of that.

80. Stress and Diet, oh sure.....It wasn't the years of alcohol and drugs that didn't have a part in a mild heart attack?

86. All these haters!!! What did Bobby do to you? My prayers go to anyone that has an emergency medical condition. You shouldnt wish this on anyone, you may be inviting it into your own family. My prayers are with Bobby and his family.

87. He and his former wife Witney Huston are both long time alcohol and drug abusers, what do they expect from abusing their bodies. Live fast die early is exactly how it works
