Samba-dy Help! Osmond Collapses on "Dancing"

Posted Oct 22nd 2007 8:47PM by TMZ Staff

Just moments after Marie Osmond busted out an intense samba routine, she hit the dance floor even harder -- passing out cold on tonight's live broadcast of "Dancing with the Stars."


As the judges stared in shock, host Tom Bergeron kept his composure and quickly threw to commercial while Osmond was sprawled out on the floor.

But all concerns were eased after the break, when Marie was up and moving around backstage. According to Bergeron, the first thing Marie said when she came to was, "Oh crap."

Osmond then explained her breakdown on camera, saying, "Once in a while it happens to me ... I stop breathing. I'm so sorry." Uh, might wanna get that checked out.

No sympathy points from the judges -- Osmond only scored 21 out of a possible 30 points.

166. Yeah, right, "Patricia." Sure your 20-something brother is dating a woman in her 50s, and you're only 22. ANYBODY CAN MAKE UP ANTHING. You old hags should stop being butt-hurt by the comments about MILFs. OBVIOUSLY, YOUNG GUYS DON'T THINK YOU'RE HOT. So don't get mad because they're saying so. YOU grow up!

167. TT, you're an idiot. Being called a MILF ISN'T a compliment! It's disrespectful. I'd never want anyone to speak to me in that way!

169. Well said an!! These old hags are hilarious telling everyone how young they look. They refuse to grow up and like you said are obviously are uneducated because they can't put together a sentence properly. It is very vain to go out of your way in telling people how young you look. That is fishing. One should let other people decide on that. I bet most of these ladies look like the 3am shift at your local waffle hose!!!

170. What I want to know is -why in Hell did no one seem even remotely CONCERNED (especially the oily Australian judge whomever he is). They all just stayed IN THEIR SEATS looking at Marie Osmond passed out on the floor!! ...I mean, this woman could have had a stroke, for all anyone knew -or worse ... I did not find this incident funny in the least ... and hope it never happens to me! Someone commented on how "we all" were looking down at her , when 'we all" constituted her partner and ONE other gentleman who was on the floor with them anyway! The judges merely looked down their noses at the whole tableau as if she were just an object!!. Incredibly bad form and taste!

Not even Keith Olberman raised this issue, on his segnebt about it which REALLY surprised and dismayed me... come ON guys!! I'm sorry- funny is funny -this was NOT!

171. To Cassie R. Anderson, #167: GET A GRIP! Many of us didn't think the incident was funny, the judges included (as evidenced by Bruno's loud "WHOO!", and if you review the video, you can see from Len's expression that he was genuinely concerned). But that doesn't mean EVERYbody has to crowd around her. As you said, there were TWO people in closest proximity who immediately responded. The first thing medics tell you in an emergency is to give room to the person needing attention! You are way overreacting to this. Take a pill!

172. Cassie you just confirmed your ignorance as well. What did you expect the entire panel of judges to run down there. What could they have done? I am sure they saw the host attending to her. You are not supposed to crowd around an individual in cases of emergency anyway. You need to chill out.

174. Hey Kimberly do aus all a favor and get yourself a life. You sound pathetic and you just confirmed to the world your ignorance. I think I need a vomit basin after reading your ridiculous srcibble. You don't even know if she wasn't on drugs as it has widely been reported she was. Don't you find that behavior she exhibited before she hit the deck just a little strange? huh? Wake up and do us all a favor and shut that flytrap.

175. "Marie Osmond didn't really faint on Dancing With the Stars. She was just faking it like a good Mormon chick. The truth is I was in Hollywood and wanted to test my Halloween costume, be truly into character as an exploited illegal immigrant Mexican worker, a janitor at a television studio. Marie actually slipped on my reenactment of my wiz from my oz. It was payback for her stealing Bobby Sherman's thunder in the early 1970s." :-)

178. Someone needs to make sure that Beefcake and Teeks don't mate and produce retarded, grammar-impaired progeny. Any person in their 20's who feels the need to bash the looks of folks their parents' age has some serious insecurities about their own looks. If their outsides look like what they've reflected of their inner selves, then Beefcake and Tekks are indeed a horrid pair.
