Pop singer Lola Young canceled a performance over the weekend after collapsing on stage in New York City.
The “Messy” singer said on Sunday that she was canceling her appearance at the All Things Go music festival in Washington, D.C., which was scheduled for later that day.
The announcement came one day after she fell backwards mid-song during the New York City portion of the All Things Go Music Festival and had to be carried off stage by a medical team.
“I’m sorry to confirm that I won’t be playing all things go in DC today,” Young 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.”
“I hope you’ll all give me another chance in the future,” she continued. “Thank you to all those who listen and care. To all the people that love to be mean online, pls give me a day off.”
Young had previously turned to social media to address her collapse, which happened while performing the song “Conceited,”
“Hi, for anyone who saw my set at All Things Go today, I am doing OK now,” she wrote on her Instagram Stories. “Thank you for all of your support, Lola xxx.”
The incident happened a day after Young’s performance on Friday was canceled by her team “due to a sensitive matter.”
“Lola is very open about her mental health and there are very occasionally days where myself and my team have to take protective measures to keep her safe,” manager Nick Shymansky wrote about the cancelation, per Billboard. “She is an incredible person and always takes her fans, career and performances seriously. I can only send huge apologies for the inconvenience caused.”
Earlier during her set on Saturday, Young said she had “a tricky couple of days.”
“Sometimes life can really make you feel like you can’t continue,” she said. “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.”
Young is best known for her hit “Messy.” Her newest album, “I’m Only [Expletive] Myself,” was released on Sept. 19.
