A little less than two months after Kelsey Grammer suffered a heart attack in Hawaii, the veteran actor admitted himself into a New York hospital for an irregular heartbeat. The actor was in town to promote his new film, Swing Vote, when “he felt a little faint, so he checked himself into the hospital,” the actor’s publicist, Stan Rosenfield, tells E! News.
Rosenfield added that it was likely Grammer’s medication, which he has been taking since his June heart attack, that was to blame.
“Doctors felt a medication adjustment was necessary, so they are keeping him there for a day or so just to monitor.”
As a result of his unexpected hospital stay, the 53-year-old Emmy winner will likely skip several planned TV appearances. He was originally scheduled to guest on Late Night With Conan O’Brien tonight and Live With Regis and Kelly tomorrow.

On Thursday Celebitchy wrote about Grammer’s People interview in which he talked about his heart attack. His phrasing makes it sound like his reps originally said it was something minor, even though they had to restart his heart twice. Hopefully that’s not the case this time, and it really is a minor situation that can be corrected with a medication change.
