    Kevin Federline Taken To Hospital After Suffering Chest Pains On Aussie Weight Loss Show

    Kevin Federline was taken to a hospital in Australia on Sunday after complaining of chest pains while competing on weight loss reality show, "Excess Baggage," the Sydney Morning Herald reported.

    Federline, the ex-husband of Britney Spears, however, did not have a heart attack, a spokesman for Channel Nine, which airs "Excess Baggage," told the newspaper.

    The paper reported that Federline was treated for symptoms of minor cardiac arrest before he was taken to an area hospital, where, after an ECG, it was determined he had not had a heart attack.

    Another spokesperson for Channel Nine said when Federline is released, a decision would be made about whether he will continue participating in the show.

    According to the SMH, this isn't the first time K-Fed has had a medical situation on set. Earlier in the season, the former backup dancer was hospitalized with heat exhaustion when the cast filmed in the Kimberley, a wilderness area in Western Australia.

      I am certain Kevin did have chest pains!! What with Britney getting better, being engaged and taking care of her boys....his chest pains were a result of hearing the "gravy train" skreeching to a halt!! He'll have to earn his own living now!!

      Yes, I know what I just said was mean spirited, but it is also at least a little bit true!

      For the sake of his children, I hope he'll be okay.

      Does he deliberately get fat so he can get paid to keep losing weight? Is this his job now? Being a professional fatty?

      Too funny a minor cardiac arrest. That's like not stopping at a stop sign. I'll give you a far better storey. I Had a real cardiac (or should we now say "major" ) arrest on Oct 21st 2011 and I was dead 10 min and they brought me back. Now that is a storey.

      I have never heard of a minor cardiac arrest. Any cardiac arrest is very major. Someone is making up new names for medical problems.

      He was "treated for symptoms of a minor cardiac arrest" before having an ECG. It showed he DID NOT have any type of cardiac arrest. READ. IT'S FUNDAMENTAL. Morons.
    • Vladimir  •  Natick, Massachusetts  •  4 mths ago
      How is he supposed to be in shape when the heaviest thing he ever lifted is a double bacon cheeseburger?
    • Rodney  •  Englewood, Colorado  •  4 mths ago
      K-fat you mean. He's been riding the gravy train for too long. No that Britney has her life together, he's making things up. Time to get a job loser.
    • John  •  New York, New York  •  4 mths ago
