British singer Lola Young has reassured fans she is "doing OK now" after collapsing during her performance at the All Things Go Festival in New York on Saturday. The 24-year-old startled audiences when she dropped her microphone mid-song and fell backwards, sparking immediate concern.
Young later took to Instagram to calm fears, thanking fans for their supportive messages. "Hi, for anyone who saw my set at All Things Go today, I am doing OK now," she wrote. Videos from the show revealed she appeared uncomfortable during her song Conceited before collapsing. Earlier in the set, she admitted she had been dealing with "a tricky couple of days" due to a personal matter.
Fellow performer Doechii stepped in after Young's exit, leading the audience in chants of "we love you Lola" and praising her talent despite the circumstances. The moment reflected the deep affection both fans and peers hold for the rising star.
Young first captured global attention in 2024 with her hit single Messy, which topped charts across multiple countries and became a viral sensation on TikTok. Her career trajectory has been swift, making her the youngest British woman since Dua Lipa in 2017 to achieve a number one single.
Despite this setback, no future performances have been cancelled, and her supporters remain hopeful she will continue her momentum once fully recovered.
