Snapshot: Tamar Braxton has a meltdown on tour...

The stress of working in such a demanding industry clearly had its toll on Tamar Braxton. Unfortunately, she had a meltdown during the middle of her Las Vegas show, so she addressed the situation on Instagram last night.

During her 'Love & War' tour on Friday, she almost lost her voice, and her body conked out while she was on stage. Her husband Vincent Herbert had to come out and hold her up before she left to take a long break in her set.
"I really felt like last night was #lightsout for me!! I felt so bad I was shaking. I honestly couldn’t remember a lyric (which is nothing new) a dance step (every night) but… I never lost MYSELF where my body took over my mind and left me helpless" she wrote. "I wanted to stay but I couldn’t. I wanted to drink water and catch my breath but I couldn’t. I, Tamar, for the first time who has always been able to figure it out and work through ANYTHING simply couldn’t do ANYTHING but gasp for air and ask for help!! I was powerless and heartbroken." Read the full entry.
Tamar is certainly in good company when it comes to stressing out on tour and it's not a nice feeling at all. Rihanna nearly cancelled a concert after suffering a meltdown under the stress of her mega 'Loud' tour, and Leona Lewis has also confessed she almost quit her 'Glassheart' tour after getting stressed out. Tamar is a hard-worker. She dances and sings live at every show so I can see how at some point, the exhaustion would kick in. Though, we do wish her a quick recovery when pressing forward.
