King of Blues BB King is hospitalised at a medical center near his home in Las Vegas, said his representative.
Mr King, 89, was rushed to the hospital on April 5 because of an emergency related to his diabetes, reported Ace Showbiz.
His daughter Claudette, however, said he "is much better". A source said Mr King has had type II Diabetes for over two decades. The Rock Me Baby singer was once diagnosed with dehydration and exhaustion while he performed in a concert last year. He was supposed to have 70 concerts in 2014 but was forced to cancel the eight remaining concerts due to health issues.
Mr King has remained active while living with diabetes, and he's even joined the fight against the disease in the past by becoming the spokesperson for the LifeScan OneTouch Ultra blood glucose meter.
