On Tuesday February 17, Beyonce Knowles' little sister, Solange Knowles, was brought to the hospital after fainting at the airport on her way home from Mercedez Benz Fashion Week in New York. The singer was hospitalized due to dehydration and low blood pressure.

"Woke up to 8 random people over me, laid out on the floor in baggage claim!" Solange said on her Twitter page on Wednesday, February 18, adding "Guess I passed out! Scary. Hooked up to IV now. Apparently I'm super dehydrated."

The "I Decided" singer mentioned that before she was unconscious, she swallowed some Vick's Nyquil tablets to treat a cold. "I took a Nyquil, and I think maybe I'm getting high off it because I'm not sleeping," she wrote. "Everything's movvvvviinnngg slooooowww, LOL."

Soon after Solange was rushed to the hospital, her mom Tina visited her at the hospital before Solange was released. "My mom is the best. LOL," stated her. "She's like, Ain't nothing wrong with this girl. She need some water and rest ... pull up the car! LOL."

Following her medical emergency, a rep of the singer stated, "Solange was treated for dehydration following a flight from New York to L.A. She is fine and resting at home. She will launch her tour on Sunday, February 22 as planned."
