Singer Marie Osmond has explained her collapse on the US reality show 'Dancing with the Stars', saying that she couldn't catch her breath.

The 48-year-old star fell to the floor while receiving her comments from the judges after her samba routine on Monday night's live show.

She later told Entertainment Tonight: "It's nuts... I feel bad that it happened."

"Right at the beginning... I started getting light-headed. And the only thing I could think of [is] I have allergies, there's almost half a million people being evacuated, the air quality is terrible - and I just couldn't get my breath."
