Serene Branson talks gibberish on live T.V after Grammy's

Serene Branson was reporting on "highlights and backstage coverage" at the Grammys on CBS 2 News in Los Angeles when she fell apart in front of the camera.
Footage shows a smiling Branson begin the live cross saying "well a very, very heavy ah, a heavy div uh burtation tonight".
As she continues to stumble over her words, Branson stops smiling and begins to look confused and unsure.
The rest of the 10-second live cross is completely incomprehensible, with Branson only managing to get out "let's go ahead," before reeling off another stream of gobbledygook.
Footage of Branson's broadcast was quickly posted on YouTube where viewers suggested she may have suffered a stroke — the symptoms of which include slurred speech and confusion — during the broadcast.
But CBS said reports Branson was hospitalised were false and the reporter was fine after being checked out by ambulance officers.
"Branson was examined by paramedics on the scene immediately after her broadcast. Her vital signs were normal. She was not hospitalised," CBS 2 News said in a statement seen by the New York Daily News.
"As a precautionary measure, a colleague gave her a ride home and she says she is feeling fine this morning."
Branson is a well known reporter having received two Emmy nominations and the Frank Shakespeare Award for Outstanding Achievement in Journalism.

Nine News reporter Damian Ryan said there was so much pressure on journalists during live crosses that it was easy for slip-ups to spiral out of control.
"It's actually happened to me once, I flopped my first two words and then everything else I was trying to say went out the window.
"You've got to be switched on and if you lose it in the first two words it just goes out the window and then you're floundering, there's nothing you can do, there's nothing to save you."
Ryan said any number of things could have caused Branson's stumbling delivery.
"She could have been distracted, she could be maybe not feeling well to start off with, she could be nervous.
"Live TV is live TV, anything can happen," he said.
Ryan said he had seen novice reporters shaking and sweating before going on live TV.
"It's a scary experience and it happens to the best of us," he said.

OMG I feel so sorry for this lady. =0

She's not a novice either. She's one awards before, but I wonder if she's done a lot of live footage before?

I can't believe just how much she slurred her words up. After the first few words it was just all gibberish.

How embaressing. >.<

EDIT: Someone has even made a remix video to this already:

EDIT: And another funny video:

I feel very sorry for her because in that line of work, there is an incredible amount of pressure and the slightest mistake or slip up can often be punished both unfairly and in a rather harsh manner.

Whether it's down to stress or some sort of medical condition, I can only hope she recovers swiftly and that the internet drama surrounding her dies down rather fast. I'll admit it is amusing to an extent, but some of the comments and parodies take it too far.
