Stone Temple Pilots singer Scott Weiland reportedly had a "mild seizure" while flying from Los Angeles to Miami on Saturday.

Weiland, who was travelling with the Scott Weiland Band to perform in Miami at the launch of his Weiland clothing line, needed oxygen administered to him by the flight's medical staff, who were alerted to his state over the loud speaker, according to Rollingstone.com.

After Weiland's seizure broke, he was taken off the plane to hospital following an emergency landing at Dallas' Fort Worth Airport.

Weiland's representative told Rollingstone.com the singer has a history of seizures, but was fine following the incident.

Meanwhile, Stone Temple Pilots have announced a North American tour that will run through October. You can see Weiland, guitarist Dean DeLeo, bassist Robert DeLeo and drummer Eric Kretz here:
