Kim cancels her comeback event to be at Kanye's bedside after he is hospitalized in cuffs with 'psychotic breakdown': 'Sleep deprived' rapper canceled tour because he is 'spiraling out of control' and stays up '48hrs at a time'

Kim Kardashian canceled her comeback event and rushed back to L.A. on Monday night to be by her husband Kanye West's side after he was hospitalized for his own safety following a psychotic breakdown.
The rapper is under 'psychiatric evaluation' at UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles and the rest of his Saint Pablo Tour has been cancelled as friends say the star is 'spiraling out of control',TMZ reports.

Friends told DailyMail.com the 'breakdown' was triggered by problems in his marriage to Kim Kardashian, paranoia over his rift with Jay Z and his seething jealousy of Beyoncé.

And friend John Legend has added to the concern for Kanye, saying: 'We were with Kim right before all that and I was concerned by what I saw, so hopefully he’s getting some rest and some time to figure things out.'

Police and paramedics were called to Kanye's home at around 1.20pm on Monday when the rapper was suffering 'severe sleep deprivation', and decided he needed to be admitted. Law enforcement sources confirmed he was hospitalized for his own health and safety.

Sources close to Kanye say he tried to resist being transported to the L.A. hospital and had to be handcuffed to a gurney in transit.

Kim had been due to make an appearance at an East Coast event yesterday but jumped back on a plane to Los Angeles after the shock news of her husband's hospitalization.

She was later spotted disembarking a jet at the Van Nuys Airport, in Los Angeles, late Monday night and climbing into a car - presumably waiting to take her to UCLA so she could be at her husband's side.

Concerned fans have already begun tweeting with the hashtag #PrayForKanye in the wake of the news.

Earlier today, Kanye's concert promoter, Live Nation, had announced he was axing the remaining 22 gigs on his national tour without giving a reason.



The announcement came just two days after the 39-year-old music artist had walked off stage 30 minutes into his performance following an incoherent political and personal rant.

West took aim at Hillary Clinton, close friends Beyoncé and Jay Z and Mark Zuckerberg in the bizarre outburst while on stage in Sacramento on Saturday. Now friends say the rant is more than just another dramatic tantrum from the rapper known for his outspoken opinions - and even his famous wife has had enough.

'Kim is fed up,' a close friend tells DailyMail.com. 'They've been bickering constantly - she didn't want Kanye to do the tour in the first place. She wanted him by her side as she recovered from her traumatic robbery in Paris.
