Madonna gave fans a fright on Saturday night, collapsing not just once, but twice during her Sticky & Sweet concert in Sofia, Bulgaria.

The Material Girl briefly lost consciousness initially while performing Holiday, and had to be held up by her dancer, as the video shows below.

Ever the professional, she carried on with the show, but then passed out a second time, while leaving the stage during Spanish Lesson.

A source revealed to The Sun,  'Madge was really worried backstage. She had to sit down for a longer break than usual between songs. She refused to end the show or take a break after the Holiday dizzy spell.'

As for the cause of the episodes, and it seems her heavy-tour schedule has finally taken its toll: 'she's suffering from exhaustion' the source added. 'She is anaemic. She was advised to postpone the last two shows in Israel for a few days, but logistics and stubborness stopped her.'
