US comedian George Lopez has walked off stage in the middle of his set in Washington, after coming down with a mysterious illness.
US comedian George Lopez walked off stage in the middle of a New Year’s Eve show after falling ill during his set, according to reports.
Lopez, 60, reportedly performed 30 to 45 minutes of his afternoon set on Friday at the Muckleshoot Casino Resort in Auburn, Washington when he decided he could no longer perform, witnesses told TMZ.
The George Lopez show star visibly struggled, began sweating and asked for a glass of water, witnesses said.
After a glass was brought out to him, he apologised to the crowd and walked off the stage, the New York Post reports.
TMZ reported that an ambulance pulled up to the casino, however it was unclear whether it arrived to take Lopez to a hospital.
After the incident, the venue subsequently announced that Lopez’s 8pm show had been cancelled and rescheduled for March 18.
Lopez was quiet on social media regarding the incident, tweeting just a simple “Thank you” on Saturday to the Twitter account for Alaska Airlines.
Lopez, whose comedy is renowned among the Latin community for examining race and ethnic relations, has a genetic condition that previously caused his kidneys to deteriorate.
In 2004, doctors told him he needed an organ transplant, but he postponed the operation until finishing the fourth season of his self-produced ABC show, George Lopez.
In 2005, his then-wife Ann Serrano donated one of her kidneys to the comedian.
Lopez’s representatives are yet to comment on the recent incident.
