Actor Joshua Bassett has recently undergone surgery after experiencing what he called “worst pain of my life.”
On Thursday, the 20-year-old singer revealed the hospitalization, sharing a video of himself in a hospital gown smiling and laughing as someone is heard saying, “You got this,” according to PEOPLE.
He wrote, “welp… not the first place i assumed i’d be on my Lie Lie Lie release day… the ER!! (before you ask, no it’s not covid.).”
“After an unknown, uncomfortable feeling turned into, times 10, the worst pain of my life, i figured i’d just try to sleep,” Bassett continued. “After multiple, very very ugly days and nights, i had no choice today but be taken to the hospital. i’d like to say thank you!!!! for all the support on the song!!! i’ve been doing what i can today to stay involved. had my first surgery tonight! gonna rest at the hospital and the doctors will see what they see in the morn! much love to all! joshy.”
The Common Sense singer said the “doctors here are the sweetest, most professional people” in the world, and they’ve “made me feel very safe.” According to PEOPLE, Bassett said one doctor awarded him the “medal for ‘the sickest patient in the hospital.’ how cool!!!”
He then commented, “Anyway, stream Lie Lie Lie.”
In December, while chatting with the Chicks in the Office podcast, Bassett reflected on writing “Just for a Moment” with Rodrigo. He said the pair spent “every hour on and off set” sending each other ideas and working on the lyrics.
“We definitely spent a lot of time together, and she’s really wonderful,” the actor said of their “very close” friendship at the time. “She’s a homie for sure,” he added. The article was published in PEOPLE.
