A crew member can then be seen running from backstage into the spotlight to see if Kelly is OK.
She collapses in his arms and he carefully lowers her to the ground before he runs off to get help.
Her bandmates ditch their instruments and rush to her aid before the stage goes black.
The star reportedly lost consciousness during the ordeal and more crew members with umbrellas came onstage to try to give her some privacy from the thousands of fans watching on.
Witnesses said Kelly showed visible signs of exhaustion during her performance at the festival in Guizhou, China on February 1.
The 36-year-old was taken to hospital for emergency tests.
Kelly, who was raised in Vancouver, remains under observation in hospital.
She was reportedly suffering from fatigue and is expected to make a full recovery.
Her team said she performed a concert in Shenzhen the day before and had to rush to Guizhou for the festival.
They said the sharp change in temperature, combined with lack of sleep, led to her fainting on stage.
A spokesperson added that she “is not in any immediate danger and is still under observation in hospital”.
Kelly found fame as an actress in the 2017 Chinese romcom The Ex-File 3: The Return of the Exes.
