• Ne-Yo's Voice Gives Woman Seizures, Forces Her to Get Operation

    We all have songs or particular artists who get on our nerves whenever they come on the radio, but nobody can really claim that hearing a particular artist is actually life-threatening, can they? Actually, someone can: Zoe Fennessy of Retford, United Kingdom, who suffers from epileptic seizures whenever she hears a song by R&B singer Ne-Yo. Because of this, she had to undergo an operation. Fennessy has been suffering from seizures since 2006, and was officially diagnosed with epilepsy in 2008, but in 2011 she suffered from her first "musicogenic seizure" after hearing Pitbull's song "Give Me Everything," which features Ne-Yo. "It took me a while to realize that they were being triggered by his songs," Fennessy told "SWNS," "and I think it wasn't until I had heard it for about the 15th time that it finally twigged what was going on."
