Rihanna Collapse Video: Rihanna Fainted Concert Sydney Australia
Rihanna reportedly passed out on stage during a concert with boyfriend Chris Brown at the Acer Arena in Sydney, Australia early Friday.
In video footage taken of the concert, Rihanna can be seen slightly hunched over and fleeing the before the end of her song.
A rep for the Grammy-winning Barbadian says the singer was simply overheated and is feeling just fine.
“It was very hot at the venue, so after Rihanna’s set was over, she went off stage to sit down, catch her breath and have some water,” her rep says. “She is perfectly healthy and will be at her show tomorrow.”

It was very hot! I was about to pass out myself at the front on the barricade, Rihanna held up a FANTASIC performance and so did Chris Brown. I think after the Flying stunt she did – it must’ve taken alot out of her, it takes alot of energy out of you to dance and sing and have the guts to fly so high above the crowd after 1 hr of performing. The Paramedics rush straight over from what i saw at the front and Chris Brown concluded the night.
Hope it was just dehydration and she is all in good health.
7 NOV SYD ACER ARENA = THE BEST CONCERT EVERR!!!

The way she was clutching her stomach, it didn’t look like dehydration, and she had just come back on after a break too… I think it was more seriuous than dehydration, maybe the harness burst a stomach ulcer or she pulled her diaphram… but her rep isn’t telling the truth. She ran off, ignoring the water her singer threw at her, if you were dehydrated, wouldn’t you want water? She fell to her knees at the back of the stage. Where I was, I could see backstage clearly and they couldn’t move her, Chris Brown was visibly concerned when he came off stage towards the end of the song to check on her. He remained by her side backstage and they had paramedics all around her. They couldn’t even move her to a more private area she was so bad. She was wonderful live, so it’s a shame she got sick, I hope she can perform a 100% the remaining concerts.

She didn’t finish the song and was clearly not in a fit state, the rep is making it sound as though it was planned but it was clear it wasn’t. Chris Brown did a good job in covering for her but with Paramedics rushing on from the side of the stage there was definitely more to it….My betting is that she is pregnant!

I was at the concert and it was WAY hot on the floor. I was like 2 back from the front baricade and caught this girl in front of me as she fainted. Lucky she was tiny and i forced my way to the fence and passed her to one of the security guys. They needed to spray water over the crowd or something, it was way too hot!!!

guys, would you not faint if you were in a steaming hot arena for over an hour, after being carried around on two strings, with millions of people watching you and in a suit that is way to tight???
I do feel sorry for her but it’s not SUCH a big deal…
