Tracy Morgan in hospital after reported collapse
Actor and comedian Tracy Morgan attends "The Darker Side of Green" debate at The Bowery Hotel on July 27, 2010, in New York.
/ GettyA spokesperson for "30 Rock" actor Tracy Morgan has reportedly told ABC he is being treated at a Utah hospital from symptoms related to "a combination of exhaustion and altitude," flatly rejecting reports on Hollywood gossip sites which claimed the star collapsed after appearing intoxicated at an awards ceremony.
"Any reports of Tracy consuming alcohol are 100 percent false," the message delivered by Morgan's representative to ABC News said, seeking to stem the flow of apparent eye-witness accounts from sites like TMZ and The Hollywood Reporter.
An official with Park City Medical Center, not far from where Morgan was attending a ceremony at the Sundance Film Festival, confirmed to ABC News that medical exams showed no drugs or alcohol in Morgan's system.

- JustMeAgainAgain: What part of "An official with Park City Medical Center... confirmed to ABC News that medical exams showed no drugs or alcohol in Morgan's system." did you not understand? Morgan had a kidney transplant a little over a year ago. The likelihood that he'd put that kidney in jeopardy is low. Drug/alcohol abusers get kicked of transplant lists. It's more likely something medically is seriously wrong.

- Sorry to hear the news. He can be a pretty funny guy but alcohol abuse is not. Maybe Tracy may find some benefit in the book "Life of Death" ( http://www.amazon.com/dp/B006XL6PY0 ). It is a short but very succinct read about how alcoholism can sneek into your life.
