Blu Cantrell suffered a near-fatal collapse in South Africa after getting deep vein thrombosis on a flight.

The singer was rushed to hospital in Johannesburg after falling ill at the airport after she arrived from LA. Doctors diagnosed a blood clot caused by DVT also called economy-class syndrome which can kill.

Blu, at No 1 last October with Breathe, was kept in hospital for three days and had to cancel a tour of South Africa.

An aide told me ‘She is fine now but it was a serious situation. It could have been fatal ‘

Blu’s been feeling down lately prior to this. She had been dumped by label BMG.

Blu’s Custom Nail Color, Powder Puff Pink, was created by her for her fans to wear and it’s said to be selling by the truckloads.

“I created this nail color because it has a fresh look. This shade of pink reminds me of a powder puff.”

“I’m glad that it’s doing well.”
