LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - A top "American Idol" contestant was taken to a hospital emergency room after Tuesday night's show suffering from heart palpitations and high blood pressure, a source close to the show said on Wednesday.
David Cook, who performed country legend Dolly Parton's ballad "Little Sparrow" on Tuesday's broadcast as one of the nine "Idol" finalists, was driven to a local hospital on the recommendation of a staff medic, the source said.
Cook, a rocker who sports a "soul patch" on his chin and has been pegged by the judges as a possible dark horse to win the massively popular Fox television talent competition this year, was treated at the hospital and released.
The source said Cook, 25, had already returned to the set of "Idol," which will eliminate another would-be star during the live Wednesday night broadcast.
