Caught on Video: CBS reporter Serene Branson any have suffered a stroke on live TV at Grammys broadcast

A friend of mine suffered a stroke and it was the same exact thing. All of a sudden he started talking gibberish. It really scared the heck out of me. I hope Ns. Branson is really all right.

The Daily Mail reports that when a television reporter started to speak gibberish live on air during a Grammys broadcast, it might have seemed a joke at first.

But any laughter soon died down after
CBS Los Angeles journalist Serene Branson was seen by paramedics as it was feared she suffered a stroke.

She stumbled over her words during a broadcast on Sunday night after beginning by saying ‘Well, a very, very...’, before mispronouncing the word ‘heavily’.

The presenter was unable to get out her words and continued to struggle to speak for around 10 seconds outside the Staples Center.

It is believed she suffered a stroke, which can cause speech problems by interfering with the brain's word-construction ability or prevent facial muscles from forming intelligible syllables.

An update on her condition was posted on the CBS website today.

It said: 'Serene Branson was examined by paramedics on scene immediately after her broadcast. Her vital signs were normal. She was not hospitalized.

'As a precautionary measure, a colleague gave her a ride home and she says that she is feeling fine this morning.'

Dr John Krakauer, of Johns Hopkins School of Medicine in Baltimore, said that a stroke was 'the number one possibility' for what happened to Ms Branson.

He told CBS News that other possibilities include a transient ischemic 'mini-stroke' attack, a headache or a seizure.

'It's a lot more common in young people than people realise,' he added.
