This Samba Stuff Is Really Hard

Marie Osmond collapsed on live TV during the ‘Dancing with the Stars’ broadcast last night after dancing the samba.

The show immediately cut to commercial and host Tom Bergeron announced after the break that Marie was doing fine and had just fainted. He noted that the first thing she said when she woke up was, “Oh crap!”

After coming to, Marie soldiered on and waited patiently for her scores backstage before being seen by a medic.

Marie brushed off the fall saying, “Once in a while that happens to me when I get winded. … You don’t plan those things. I’m so sorry!” She added: “I am Sleeping Beauty, sleeping on the job!”

She went on to score a 21/30.
