KATSEYE fans have raised concerns about Megan Skiendiel’s return to live performances while recovering from a concussion, following the group’s concert in Austin, Texas, on November 11, 2026.

The 20-year-old singer appeared on stage at the Moody Center wearing dark sunglasses and sitting on a stool while her bandmates performed the choreography.

Although she continued singing and interacting with the audience, her movements remained limited.

Fans expressed concern about Skiendiel’s condition, with several questioning whether the group should continue its tour.

One supporter commented, “Just let Megan rest omg,” while another wrote, “Just cancel the tour.”

Skiendiel previously told fans that she had sustained a concussion and was “doing everything I possibly can to recover.” Addressing concertgoers during her return, she said, “I’m so excited to be back on this stage. Thank you guys so much for showing me so much support. I’m feeling so much better.”

KATSEYE recently cancelled three performances in Detroit, Chicago and Minneapolis because of illness.

The group is also performing without Sophia Laforteza and Manon Bannerman, who are taking temporary breaks to prioritise their mental health and wellbeing.

Laforteza’s hiatus was announced in August, with management confirming that medical professionals had recommended extended rest and ongoing care. Bannerman began her temporary break in February.

Formed through the 2023 competition Dream Academy: The Debut, Katseye comprises six members and was developed through a partnership between HYBE and Geffen Records.

While Laforteza is officially scheduled to return to KATSEYE in the first week of January 2027, there has been no update about Bannerman's return to the group.
