"X Factor" UK finalist 4th Impact entered the top 7 of the competition despite one of their members, Celina, collapsing before their performance.

The all-Filipina girl group wowed the "X Factor" UK Judges Simon Cowell, Rita Ora, Nick Grimshaw and their mentor Cherly Fernandez-Versini in their own rendition of Beyonce's "Work It Out."

The group, who flew all the way from the Philippines, gathered a standing ovation from the "X Factor" judges after their performance.

According to a spokesperson from "X Factor," Celina, 19, fainted before their performance and an ambulance was called to check on her.

"The girls were given the option to have their rehearsal footage played or to perform as a three, but they choose to perform all together," the spokesman said. "After the performance Celina was checked by a medic again as a precaution."

After the 4th Impact's live performance for Week 3, Celina reportedly looked weak, prompting her to take a seat while listening to the judges' comment.

Simon Cowell said that the group, between the ages of 19 to 27, nailed "the most incredible performance" they have ever seen despite Celina's condition, Mirror UK said.

"I was there as this was all happening backstage so I know what you've been through. I hope you're OK, sweetheart," he added.

Meanwhile, the "X Factor" UK finalist 4th Impact's mentor Cherly Fernandez-Versini said that she was very proud of the four for "getting up in those circumstances."

She said that they had the option to use the rehearsal tapes but still pushed to do a live performance.

"We [singers] suffer things like this," she said.

In her Twitter account, 4th Impact's Celina had already updated their fans about her health and said that she is feeling better now, Just Jared said in a report.

"1st of all I want to thank God for giving me the strength to perform last night. Thank you all for praying for me! Feeling better now - Cel," she tweeted.
