News outlets are reporting that Grammy winning singer Toni Braxton has been hospitalized in Las Vegas and is in stable condition. While a hospital spokesperson has yet to confirm why Braxton was rushed to the hospital Tuesday morning, various news outlets are reporting the singer may have suffered a mild heart attack.  

Braxton is in the middle of a two year run at Vegas’ Flamingo hotel that began in 2006. The show, “Toni Braxton: Revealed”, is expected to be dark tonight and a hotel spokesperson would not say when the singer was expected to return.  

Initial reports suggested Braxton may be released this afternoon, but further reporting indicates the 41-year-old singer may be kept for a couple of days.  

Braxton won a Grammy for best female vocal performance for “Unbreak My Heart”. In recent years, her career has taken a bit of a tumble with much publicized riffs with her record labels.  

Braxton is reportedly readying a new album for release later this year.
