Kehlani Hospitalized on Psychiatric Hold Following Possible Suicide Attempt

Singer Kehlani was placed on a psychiatric hold and hospitalized in Los Angeles yesterday afternoon, reports TMZ. Unnamed sources told the site that “she wanted to harm herself.” While it was unclear when the hold would end, TMZ also quoted sources close to Kehlani as saying, “She’s doing much better.” A spokesperson for Atlantic Records, Kehlani’s label, declined to comment to Pitchfork.

Last night, the singer posted a photo on Instagram of an IV drip in her arm. The post has since been deleted, along with her entire account. “Today I wanted to leave this earth,” the caption had read. “Being completely selfish for once. Never thought I’d get to such a low point.”

The caption added: “Everyone is hurt and everyone is in a place of misunderstanding.. But as of today, I had no wish to see tomorrow.. But God saved me for a reason, and for that… I must be grateful.. Cuz I’m not in heaven right now for a reason…”

In an earlier Instagram post, Kehlani denied rumors that she had cheated on her ex-boyfriend, basketball player Kyrie Irving, with R&B singer PARTYNEXTDOOR.
