Usmagazine is reporting that Alexa Ray Joel called 911 herself after taking a handful of homeopathic pills this past Saturday. The dispatcher has Joel’s voice saying, “Took pills. Want to die.” The 23 year old daughter of Billy Joel and Christie Brinkely was allegedly upset over a recent breakup and she swallowed eight tablets of Traumeel, an herbal alternative to ibuprofen, which were incapable of killing her. Joel then panicked about what she had, therefore placing the 911 call. She was rushed to St. Vincent’s Hospital in New York City’s Greenwich Village and later released. Father Billy Joel told reporters late Saturday that she would be fine. Alexa Ray is now staying with him.
