Jamie also thanked Nick Cannon and Kelly Osbourne for temporarily filling in for him and his daughter on their show Beat Shazam.

Jamie is currently in a medical facility and undergoing tests after his mysterious incident while filming for Netflix movie Back in Action.

Doctors are yet to get to the bottom of what happened to Jamie, but a source has said it was "touch and go" at first.

"Jamie suffered a serious medical episode and needed immediate attention. It was touch and go for days with him, and he had to be revived — he is very lucky to be alive!

"He's very lucky he got the treatment he did. Jamie suffers from high blood pressure, which doctors say can cause clots in the brain leading to a stroke.

"Doctors believe this was a long time coming, and really, if they hadn't acted fast, Jamie might well have been a goner," the source told radaronline.
