International supermodel Heidi Klum is concerned she has coronavirus after falling sick on the set of America’s Got Talent in Pasadena – but has not been able to get a test amid widespread shortages of kits in the U.S.
The 46-year-old TV host, who was in Pasadena to film the popular show, said she wants to take the test and has tried ‘two different doctors’ with no success.
The German-born star fell ill on Tuesday just before going on stage with co-hosts Sofia Vergara, Simon Cowell and Howie Mandel to film auditions for America’s Got Talent at the Pasadena Civic auditorium near Los Angeles.
In an Instagram video the model said it ‘started with a chill, feeling feverish, cough, runny nose…’ before adding, ‘Um I’m just not feeling good so that’s why I’ve stayed home to not infect any other people.
‘I hope it’s just a cold, I would love to do the corona test but there just isn’t one here. I’ve tried with two different doctors and I just can’t get one.’ the former Project Runway host added.
‘Stay safe everyone, stay home if you don’t feel good,’ she ended her message.
The judges apologized to the audience by saying that the model had come down with a case of food poisoning.
Initially, taping for AGT continued with a studio audience but it was reported on Thursday that they have suspended tapings with audiences ‘until further notice’.
