Lola Young has reassured fans about her health after collapsing during her performance at the All Things Go Music Festival in New York.
The 24-year-old was midway through her song "Conceited" at Forest Hills Stadium on September 27 when she fainted on stage and was escorted off to receive medical attention.
Young later posted an update on Instagram, writing, “Hi, for anyone who saw my set at All Things Go today, I am doing okay now."

Her collapse followed a cancelled appearance the previous evening at Audacy’s We Can Survive concert in Newark.
Young told the audience before starting her All Things Go set that she had “had a tricky couple of days,” adding, “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.”
Young has spoken candidly about her mental health in the past, revealing she was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder at 17. In 2022 she described the condition as life-changing, while stressing that it does not define her and instead fuels her creativity.
Young is due to resume live shows in Manchester and London in October before heading to North America in November.
