Comedian Heather McDonald suffers skull fracture after she 'suddenly collapsed' onstage

Comedian Heather McDonald suffered a skull fracture after she collapsed on stage Saturday at an Arizona comedy club.

McDonald, 51, was on stage at the Tempe Improv on Saturday night for about three minutes before she "suddenly collapsed" and suffered a skull fracture as a result of the fall, a statement on her Facebook page said.

She was taken to a local hospital where tests revealed no underlying medical issues that may have caused her collapse. The statement also noted that McDonald has been tested for COVID-19 and remains negative, and had "consumed no alcohol prior to or during the show."

"I'm in the emergency room … I'm so, so, so, so sorry," McDonald said in a selfie video taken from a hospital bed, which has since expired from her Instagram Stories. "I passed out onstage. I got up, I did one joke and I felt so dizzy. You can see my eye – I fell. Oh my God. I cannot believe this happened. I feel so terrible that they had to tell everyone to leave and then cancel the second show. Tempe, I will be back."

USA TODAY has reached out to McDonald's representative for further updates.
