She’s one of Britain’s most popular music acts.

But for one man the excitement was too much and he he collapsed in his seat at a Susan Boyle concert at Manchester’s Bridgewater Hall on Tuesday.

The man was given emergency resuscitation and was carried out of the venue in a stretcher to be taken to hospital in an ambulance.

According to the Manchester Evening News, former Britain’s Got Talent star Susan’s performance was delayed by 20 minutes as the man was given treatment.

Audience members were reportedly asked to a section of the stalls as ambulance crew administered the emergency procedure in the stalls.
The performance began at 7.50pm with supporting act Lance Ellington taking to the stage and introducing SuBo to the Manchester audience.

The tour opened in Liverpool earlier this month, with Susan opening the show to an audience of thousands.

Susan told the Liverpool Echo ahead of the tour: 'I’ve always wanted to do my own show. I’ve chosen some of my favourite songs from past albums and also new songs that not only have I wanted to perform for years but resonate with me and I hope my fans will love.

'I’m really very excited, the show will be bigger and better than before and I can’t wait for the first show in Liverpool.'

In December 2013, the singer revealed that she had been diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome.

A form of Autism, the condition means that sufferers struggle with their emotions and are often unable to pick up on non-verbal cues.
Susan is performing across the UK as part of her first nationwide tour, with dates in 16 cities including Leicester, Birmingham, Cardiff, Bristol, London and a sold-out show in Stoke-on-Trent.
Mail Online has contacted a representative for Susan Boyle for comment.
