Cilmi fears on stage "collapse"

Gabriella Cilmi has revealed that she is worried her new image will cause her to collapse on stage.

The singer changed her look for the release of her new album Ten, but said that she is concerned her tight dresses will restrict her breathing while performing.

She said: "I love the whole disco fever thing - but sometimes my dresses are so tight, I feel like my lungs are going to collapse!

"Even though I like glamming up, it’s a bit different to when I wake up with mascara all down my face."

Cilmi was recently confirmed as the support act on Leona Lewis's forthcoming UK tour.
