Josh Hartnett really needs to invest in some bottled water.
The strapping 30-year-old film star said unfamiliar water was the reason he visited a Los Angeles emergency room last month.
"I'm fine. I just had a little stomach bug," he told People Wednesday at a New York charity function. "It's been reoccurring because I have been spending a lot of time in Third World countries, and I occasionally drank the water when I shouldn't have – and sometimes it catches up with you. I went to the hospital and it was literally just a 24-hour thing. I was so dehydrated that I needed to be on a couple of IVs, but I'm good."
He said that the whole incident was overblown and media blitz that followed the impromptu hospital trip was likely because he was staying at the Chateau Marmont hotel, a West Hollywood celebrity hive. (Photo: WENN)
