Reporter Serene Branson was outside the Staples Center for CBS 2 News in Los Angeles and was set to share the "highlights and backstage coverage" from the music awards show when things went wrong.

Massive journalism meltdown?

Maybe not.

Some news reports suggest she was hospitalized shortly after the report aired — possible stroke?  Other news reports deny it, and claims she was drunk.

In any event, a bizarre event.

UPDATE:  Sarah gets a Twitter account to deny the hospitalization rumors.  Which means we can all laugh at her now…. um…. unless it's a fake Twitter account.

ALSO, IN OTHER GRAMMY NEWS….. Elton did it first, Cee-Lo.
