By PopEater Staff Posted Sep 20th 2009 08:45AM

'Stone Temple Pilots' crooner Scott Weiland suffered a seizure at 30,000 feet on Friday, forcing a Miami-bound flight he was on to make an emergency pit stop in Dallas. He was briefly hospitalized before being cleared to carry on to Florida, where he was set to promote a clothing line.

"Scott is doing great," the singer's publicist told E! News.

The singer's rep said he has a history of seizures, but that this was not considered serious.

It's Weiland not WYLAND and you are obviously not aware of Scott's incredible talent. Get a Stone Temple Pilots album or some Velvet Revolver and get with the times..........

HOUSEWIFE URINATES IN PUBLIC RESTROOM.
Debby had a previous history of using restrooms before and this is not considered a serious incident. Stay tuned for more stupid news posts.

I don't know much about this man but I hope he is ok because I had seizures (Epilepsy) for about 17 years so I know what they are like and they definately are no fun. I agree seizures can be caused by other things other than Epilepsy such as drug overdoses, brain trauma but another thing that that can cause seizures that no one listed is Diabetes. Does anyone know if he has Diabetes?
