Barbara Weldens, an up-coming French singer, has reportedly collapsed and died in the middle of a concert at a festival in the south-eastern part of the country.
35-year-old Weldens had been on stage in a church in the picturesque village of Goudron, in the Lot region of the south-west, when she suffered an apparent cardiac arrest.
She had released her first album this year and had won a young talent award.
However, police have begun investigating the cause of her death and have refused to speculate on the circumstances.
Weldens regularly performed with a pianist and acoustic guitarist and was in the middle of a tour. According to her website, she had become a singer after growing up in the circus. Among her biggest influences was the singer-songwriter Jacques Brel, BBC reports.
Weldens case is somewhat similar to our earlier reported story on January 14, 2016, when pop icon, Madonna, collapsed on stage while paying tribute to the late David Bowie who died of cancer. Where Madonna however survived the incident, Weldens was not so lucky.
