Why is Nick Cannon hospitalized? Actor's shocking revelation on Instagram sparks concern among fans
NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Nick Cannon has revealed that he is currently receiving treatment for pneumonia at a hospital. Cannon, 42, posted a series of pictures online, captioning them with descriptions of his illness, showing himself laying in a hospital bed.
"Okay, so I guess I'm not Superman... I promised myself I would never be back at this place again," Cannon wrote in the caption of his Instagram post. "But this is a great lesson to take care of YOU or YOU won't be able to take care of everyone else." Cannon added, "Don't trip though, I don't need any well wishes or prayers, just some solid rest and I will be back on the journey to becoming stronger than ever. It's just pneumonia, nothing I can't handle." He further said, "Crazy thing is, last night we was just rocking a sold out crowd at Madison Square Garden in front of thousands of fans. Now I'm all alone in a tiny hospital room. Life is definitely a rollercoaster!"

Nick concluded his caption with the hashtag '#LupusWarrior' as he has long been vocal about his health problems. On 'The Nick Cannon Show' in January, he disclosed his diagnosis ten years later as he said, "Ten years ago, I experienced a sudden and mysterious illness that almost took my life."
Cannon continued, "At the time, I had no idea it was lupus. And, you know me, I always have to have a camera on. So I would literally open up my phone, grab my camera and I would talk to the camera, and I documented the entire health journey."
