LOS ANGELES, Jan. 30 (UPI) -- Ron Jeremy's manager says the adult film icon is in critical condition in a Los Angeles hospital after suffering an aneurysm near his heart.

Mike Esterman, Jeremy's manager, told TMZ the 59-year-old porn star drove himself to Cedars-Sinai hospital Tuesday afternoon after experiencing severe chest pain.

Upon examining him, doctors determined he had suffered an aneurysm. They were expected to perform surgery Wednesday to treat it, TMZ reported.
