Acclaimed R&B singer and actor Brandy Norwood has been hospitalized for a possible seizure after a medical incident in her Los Angeles home.

Brandy is recovering in an L.A. hospital, news outlet TMZ reports,

Law enforcement has told the outlet that they received an EMS call to Brandy’s home at noon ET on Tuesday (Oct. 11).

“Sources with direct knowledge tell us it’s believed Brandy suffered a seizure, and she was taken to a local hospital,” writes the outlet. “At this time, we’re told Brandy is still in the hospital—her parents have been there with her—and it appears she will recover.”

It is unknown at this time what health issues led to Brandy’s condition or the seizure or if there was a preexisting condition.
