Tracy Morgan has been hospitalized after passing out at the Sundance Film Festival.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Cop Out and 30 Rock star had just received the Spotlight Initiative Award Sunday at the Creative Coalition Spotlight Awards when he collapsed just outside the building.

A spokesperson for the Park City Medical Center has already revealed that no drugs or alcohol were present in Morgan's system when doctors checked him out, though other guests at the Awards show describe Morgan as "out of control."

Word is the star, who underwent a kidney transplant just two years ago, was seen "yelling and falling onto the ground" during the event.

"From a combination of exhaustion and altitude, Tracy is seeking medical attention," claims a statement from a spokesperson for the funny man. "He is with his fiance and grateful to the Park City Medical Center for their care. Any reports of Tracy consuming alcohol are 100% false."

THR reports that the Spotlight Initiative Award honours artists who "celebrate the art and craft of independent filmmaking, and honor those who leverage the platform of the silver screen to make a difference in the world."

Morgan received this year's award alongside other recipients including Kate Bosworth, rapper Common, 90210 star AnnaLynne McCord and filmmaker Stacy Peralta.

Morgan is at Sundance to promote his new film Predisposed, in which he co-stars with The Fighter's Melissa Leo and The Social Network's Jesse Eisenberg.
