An eyewitness told TMZ that George was about a half hour into his 4pm show when he could be seen sweating before asking someone to bring him some water.
“You could tell something was wrong, but it was not clear what was wrong,” said Sabrina Alvarez, who was also at the show, adding that George apologized to the audience and left the stage.
According to TMZ, an ambulance was seen arriving at the venue, but it’s unclear if it was for George.
Shortly after he left the stage, the casino announced that George‘s 8pm show that night had been canceled.
As of right now, George hasn’t publicly addressed the situation.
