Headline: Patti Smith collapses on stage during concert in Brazil

Caption: The 78-year-old rock icon was performing with the experimental music group Soundwalk Collective at the Teatro Cultura Artística in São Paulo Brazil, when she collapsed. Shocked onlookers told Brazilian outlet Metrópoles that Smith fell backwards and hit her head on the floor before being escorted off stage in a wheelchair. Despite the health scare, the Gloria hitmaker returned in the wheelchair and apologised to the audience. She noted that doctors advised her to call off the rest of the show but she wanted to sing one more song.
