Whether this was the result of an actual injury or a theatrical element remains unconfirmed, though the imagery prompted widespread speculation online.

During the show, the singer also partially unzipped his jumpsuit, exposing what observers identified as a medical dressing positioned on the upper left portion of his chest.

This visible patch led to suggestions that he may have recently been fitted with a heart monitor or similar cardiac device.

The concert comes amid a deeply troubling period for the performer’s health.

Earlier this year, Ray J was admitted to hospital in Las Vegas suffering from pneumonia alongside cardiac symptoms.

During his stay, medical staff conducted X-rays and an echocardiogram to assess his condition.

The singer has since disclosed that he is currently taking eight different medications to manage serious heart problems.

Among the prescribed treatments are Lipitor, Jardiance, and Entresto, drugs typically administered to patients facing an elevated risk of heart failure.

Sources have indicated that physicians expressed uncertainty regarding his long-term prognosis, with concerns raised about the severity of his cardiac issues.

Ray J himself acknowledged that doctors had spoken to him about the unpredictable nature of his condition.

Medical professionals have advised that he may require either a pacemaker or defibrillator, though this determination depends on the outcome of upcoming follow-up appointments.

The artist has been placed under strict orders to abstain from both alcohol and tobacco as part of his recovery regimen.

In a recent interview, Ray J conceded that adhering to these lifestyle restrictions has proven challenging.

He must also follow his prescribed treatment plan closely whilst awaiting further tests to clarify the extent of his cardiac condition.

The uncertainty surrounding his health has prompted considerable discussion across social media, with many questioning whether he should continue performing given the apparent seriousness of his medical situation.

“Does heart issues makes your eyes bleed out?” one concerned fan asked on social media, while another said: “Seeing someone perform with blood in their eyes and a heart monitor is devastating. No amount of ‘the show must go on’ is worth a human life.”

“Blood from the eyes during a performance with a heart monitor? Either it’s some next-level stage makeup/effects or he’s in serious trouble. Praying it’s the first one and he gets the help he needs. Heart at 25 per cent ain’t no joke,” a third fan penned.

However, another wrote: “He already said the Doctor told him he’ll make it. Yall need to keep up.”

Beyond his physical health struggles, Ray J has faced significant personal difficulties.

A criminal protective order currently prevents him from having contact with his two children with Princess Love, a circumstance he has described as profoundly affecting him emotionally.

During a recent livestream, the singer revealed that he “almost died” whilst hospitalised.

He also shared that his sister, the singer Brandy, had stepped in to provide financial assistance during this difficult period, covering his bills for the remainder of the year.

Despite the gravity of his situation, Ray J has expressed cautious optimism about his future. He stated: “If I come out of this, I’ll be stronger and a better person.”
