Birdman rushes to Toni Braxton’s side after she is hospitalized

Luther Vandross was outed as gay after his death.

A spokeswoman says singer Toni Braxton is now at home after spending several days in a Los Angeles hospital being treated for lupus. It is being reported that when her beau Birdman got the news, he hopped on a jet from New York to be by her side.

Braxton spokeswoman Maureen O’Connor said Monday that Braxton “is resting at home and is fine.” The R&B singer revealed in 2010 that she had been diagnosed with the autoimmune disease.

O’Connor said Braxton was not in serious condition but added that the disease must be monitored at all times.

She says Braxton plans to start rehearsals this week for an upcoming tour.
