It is not the first time drama has struck while Manson was singing his cover of the Eurythmics’ hit – in October, he was admitted to hospital when a prop fell on him during a show in New York. After the incident, Manson was forced to scrap multiple dates of his US tour.

He has since returned for his current tour, Twins of Evil: The Second Coming, co-headlined with Rob Zombie of the heavy metal band White Zombie.

Beginning his set after Manson’s collapse, Zombie told the crowd: “My dear friend Mr Manson is feeling under the weather. He’s probably on the bus feeling like crap.”
