Ray J's health issues may be worse than we thought.
Earlier this week, the RSVP member told fans that his heart only beats at 25 percent. In a video he posted on Tuesday, January 27, Ray J claimed his doctors told him he doesn't have long to live. One of his friends in the room with him tried to get him to be more positive, but he wasn't feeling too confident.
"2027 is going to be a wrap for me," the R&B singer said while waving his hand in front of his throat. "That's what the doctors said."
“I shouldn’t have went this hard, bro,” he said. “I shouldn’t have went that hard. And then, when it’s all done, burn me. Don’t bury me.”
Ray J has been experiencing heart issues for the past few weeks. At the beginning of January, he was admitted to a medical center in Las Vegas over a severe case of pneumonia. He had several tests done, including X-rays and an echocardiogram. At one point during his livestream, Ray J said the right side of his heart was black. He also reflected on all the drugs and alcohol he consumed, which he believes led to his medical issues.
“I f**ked up,” he said. “I think I thought I was a bigger n***a, like, I had more weight. I thought I was a big n***a. So I’m like, I can handle all the alcohol. I can handle all the Adderall. I can handle all the drugs. I can handle everything. But I couldn’t. My s**t f**ked up."
Toward the end of the video, Ray J said his parents will be taking him to a check-up with his doctors. He also shouted out his sister Brandy for covering his bills for the year.
“My baby mama gon’ be straight, my kids gon’ be straight,” he said. “If they wanna spend all the money, they can spend it, but I did my part here.”
We hope Ray J makes a full recovery. See what else he had to say below.
