Ray J Performs With Chest Patch & Apparent Blood Running From His Eyes
Earlier this week, Instagram user @livebitez took to the platform to share footage of Ray J’s apparent performance in Shreveport, Louisiana, on February 14. To note, last week, Ray shared a flyer in promotion of the event, showing that he’d be popping out in the city for “An Intimate Valentine’s Day Concert.”
The concert also featured the likes of Sammie, 702, J. Holiday, Sunshine Anderson, Kelly Price, and Bobby Valentino. Furthermore, while Valentino hit the stage to perform his hit single ‘Slow Down, Ray decided to also hit the stage and hand out roses. Although he was wearing sunglasses, fans couldn’t help but notice apparent blood running from his eyes. Additionally, a separate clip from @livebitez showed Ray wearing a chest patch while walking in the crowd.

Before Ray J Performed With A Chest Patch & Apparent Blood Running From His Eyes, He Gave Fans A Shocking Health Update
As The Shade Room previously reported, in January, Ray J was admitted to a hospital in Las Vegas, Nevada. At the time, it was reported that the singer was experiencing severe pneumonia in addition to heart pain.
Then, by the end of the month, Ray revealed to fans that he’s allegedly experiencing congestive heart failure. Additionally, the singer alleged he would need a pacemaker or defibrillator and only has months to live.
At this time, the validity of the singer’s apparent diagnosis remains unclear.
