Michel’le has given fans an update on her health after a recent performance left them concerned for her well-being.

Dr. Dre has been accused of assaulting numerous women over the years. In 1991, he brutally attacked former Pump It Up! host Dee Barnes at a Hollywood industry party, which resulted in a lawsuit. In the 2017 HBO documentary The Defiant Ones, Dre admitted he was “out of his fucking mind” when he assaulted her and offered a public apology.
“Any man that puts his hands on a female is a fucking idiot,” Dre said in the clip. “He’s out of his fucking mind and I was out of my fucking mind at the time. I…
