KUALA LUMPUR: Singer, actor, emcee and television host Roslan Shah fell "flat on his face" while being interviewed live on TV3 today.
Roslan, 52, who is recuperating at a private hospital, collapsed during the live telecast of popular women's talk show Wanita Hari Ini (WHI) at Sri Pentas, Bandar Utama, Petaling Jaya around noon.
He was being interviewed by WHI co-hosts Hawa Rizwana and Fatin Hamimah, on the topic of outspoken people or "loose cannons" when he suddenly began to cough and feel dizzy.
Roslan subsequently fell off his seat, head first, to the shock of Fatin, Hawa and the production team. The live programme was temporarily stopped as studio staff helped revive Roslan.
A doctor on duty in the studio promptly examined Roslan and found that his blood pressure was high. Consequently, the production team called an ambulance which took Roslan to the nearest hospital.
Roslan, whose real name is Roslan Udin, hails from Singapore but largely found fame in Malaysia over the last two decades.
He is best known for participating in the adventure-based reality show Celebrity Fear Factor Malaysia in 2012.
