As previously reported by AOL Music, the veteran singer succumbed to a bout of asthma whilst on stage in Pittsburgh on Thursday (28 July), with a video -- which you can watch below -- soon appearing online of the incident's bemused aftermath.
He soon returned to the microphone to continue his set, but according to TMZ, Meat Loaf has fainted again -- this time backstage after finishing a performance.
He was playing at the New Jersey Balloon Festival and is said to have collapsed post-show, requiring oxygen for 10 minutes.
They report that he needed no further medical assistance and was soon on his way again.
Meat Loaf's current tour is still scheduled go to ahead and is due to stop off in a few venues around the US. He has an Australia and New Zealand tour planned for October.
Outside of music, Meat Loaf has recently been starring on US television screens in 'The Celebrity Apprentice', and, as AOL Music previously reported, he managed to get himself into a bit of a heated tiff with actor Gary Busey -- something which he called "one of the most embarrassing moments" of his life.
