George Lopez Gets Sick During NYE Comedy Set And Walks Off Stage

George Lopez had to cut his NYE comedy show short after feeling ill during his performance.

In a short video clip that was posted online,  you can see the comedian appearing to have some trouble on stage. Lopez was performing at the Muckleshoot Casino Resort in Auburn, Washington, at around 4 PM when he began to struggle.

According to eyewitness Sabrina Alvare, who spoke with TMZ, the comedian was 30 to 45 minutes into his set when he started sweating and asking for water.  

“You could tell something was wrong, but it was not clear what was wrong,” Alvarez said.

Lopez apologized to his audience as he stopped the show and left the stage.

The publication reported that an ambulance arrived at the casino, but it is unclear whether or not it was there for Lopez.

The comedian tweeted on New Year’s Day, “Thank you @AlaskAir,” but no mention of the incident on NYE.

Thank you @AlaskaAir
