    Lola Young had to be carried off stage after she collapsed during her performance

    The 24-year-old singer suffered a medical issue while singing Conceited at the All Things Go Music Festival at Forest Hills Stadium, New York City, on Saturday (27.09.25) and was taken backstage by medical staff, but she later reassured fans she was fine.


    She wrote on her Instagram Story less than an hour later: "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. (sic)"

    Remi Wolf had later performed at the festival and also told the audience her friend was doing OK.

    She said: "That was really f****** scary. My friend Lola is backstage, and she is okay."

    Doechii also gave a shoutout to the Messy hitmaker during her own set.

    Prior to her collapse, Lola had told the crowd she had been through a "tricky couple of days.

    She added: "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."

    Just a day before, the Don't Hate Me Singer had cancelled her appearance at Audacy's We Can Survive concert, with her manager Nick Shymansky explaining on Instagram Stories that she had done so "due to a sensitive matter".

    Earlier this month, Lola reflected on her "struggle" with sobriety after checking into rehab last year to address her drug addiction.

    She told the Guardian newspaper: "It's been a struggle - I've definitely had to work on some internal healing while grappling with touring and stuff ...

    "I've had to be away for a bit while battling with things. But it teaches you a lot, being addicted to substances. It makes you more empathetic about other people that have gone through that. It's just a constant journey."

    The Big Brown Eyes singer went on to explain she feels "very grateful and appreciative" to have been given the chance to access help and support.

    She said: "A lot of people don't have the privilege of being able to do that. A lot of people suffer from addiction, and a lot of people are in that personal journey [to recovery].

    "Anyone who knows that feeling will know it's not linear, it's always up and down, but it's down to dysregulation of dopamine ... coming out as ADHD as well and being diagnosed, that's been hard to deal with."
