Lola Young Cancels Music Festival Performance After Collapsing Onstage:

Lola Young is taking a break after collapsing while performing at a New York City music festival.

One day after the incident, the British singer, 24, canceled her Sept. 28 performance at the All Things Go Music Festival in Washington, D.C.

“I’m sorry to confirm that I won’t be playing all things go in DC today,” she wrote on Instagram. 

“I love this job and I never take my commitments and audience for granted, so I’m sorry to those who will be disappointed by this,” Young continued. “I hope you’ll all give me another chance in the future. Thank you to all those who listen and care.”

The “Messy” singer then issued a plea to online critics, writing, “To all the people that love to be mean online, pls give me a day off.”

Young collapsed mid-performance while she was singing “Conceited” at the All Things Go Music Festival at Forest Hills Stadium on Saturday, Sept. 27. She was carried off the stage by medical team staff.

Remi Wolf later appeared onstage, where she addressed the crowd, stating, “That was really f—— scary.” She added, “My friend Lola is backstage, and she is okay.” 

Earlier in the set, Young spoke about how she “had a tricky couple of days.”

She said, “Sometimes life can really make you feel like you can’t continue, but you know what, today I woke up and I made the decision to come here, and I wanted to be cool … and sometimes life can throw you lemons, and you just gotta make lemonade.”

The breakthrough artist shared a statement on her Instagram Stories about an hour after the medical incident, writing, “Hi, for anyone who saw my set at All Things Go today, I am doing OK now.” 

“Thank you for all of your support, Lola xxx,” she added. 

Young’s onstage incident occurred a day after she canceled her performance at Audacy’s We Can Survive concert on Friday, Sept. 26. Her manager, Nick Shymansky, shared a statement on Instagram Stories, stating that the musician pulled out from the performance “due to a sensitive matter.”

Earlier this month, Young told Elle UK that she sometimes can’t go online because of the comments that target her “insecurities.”

“It’s tricky,” she said. “I used to watch others go through it and wonder what it felt like.”

“When you get a million comments, it’s hard not to let the bad ones in. Some days I can’t go online — the intensity and the remarks that target your insecurities can be too much,” the singer continued.

In 2022, Young opened up about her mental health and living with schizoaffective disorder — which she was diagnosed with at 17 — in a candid Instagram post.

“I can’t find the words to describe how much this diagnosis has affected my entire life, and my outlook on the world around me. I have struggled immensely learning to accept this part of myself, and I am still learning,” she wrote at the time.
