Cotton faints during Yoga session

Fearne Cotton has revealed that she fainted during a Bikrham yoga session last week.

The TV presenter described the exercise regime as being like "hell" and claimed the event had taught her to never laugh at her mates again.

Three months earlier Cotton had mocked one of her friends who said he felt sick after a yoga session.

Talking about the incident on her MySpace blog, she said: "So we start doing some stretches and I start feeling very odd. I try to ignore this strong car sickness sensation and power through.

"The next thing I know I'm laying flat on my side dizzy as can be. Yep I fainted at Bikrham yoga!!! In front of about 30 people who were currently in very complex yogic poses!! Cringe!!!"

She added: "After about ten minutes I felt a little better and managed to do the rest of the class but a little half heartedly to be honest!! Instant bloody karma!!"
