Kenny Rogers Confirms Hospitalization for Dehydration Amid 'Wild Misinformation'

Kenny Rogers' team has issued a statement today that the country icon was recently admitted to a hospital to be treated for dehydration. A number of unnamed media outlets have reported about the 80 year-old singer's health, which Rogers' team calls "wild misinformation and speculation."

"Rogers will remain there to complete some physical therapy to get his strength back prior to discharge. He appreciates the concern and well wishes he has received from his fans and can assure everyone he plans on sticking around through the years to come."
