British singer Lola Young is on the mend after collapsing on stage during her set at the All Things Go music festival this weekend.

The 24-year-old singer-songwriter was in the middle of performing her 2024 track "Conceited" on Saturday at New York's Forest Hills Stadium when she suffered an unspecified medical emergency. Video footage captured by fans in the crowd sees Young falling backwards, prompting members of her band to leap up and help her. She remains on the ground for a few moments before medical personnel arrive to carry her off stage.

Afterwards, Young's label mate and fellow artist Remi Wolf stepped out on stage to address the situation.

"That was really f---ing scary," Wolf told the audience, adding, "My friend Lola is backstage, and she is okay."

The next update came from Young herself, who took to social media Saturday night to reassure her fans she was feeling better. "Hi. For anyone who saw my set at All Things Go today, I am doing okay now," she wrote on her Instagram Story. "Thank you for all your support."

Young later announced that she is pulling out of her Sunday All Things Go performance in D.C. "I love this job, and I never take my commitments and audience for granted," she wrote. "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 added, "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."

A representative for All Things Go confirmed to * *that Young has canceled her performance. Representatives for Young did not immediately respond to EW's request for comment.

The incident comes just days after Young cancelled a New Jersey performance that had been scheduled for Friday. Her team cited "a sensitive matter" upon announcing the cancellation, with her manager, Nick Shymansky, publishing an in-depth statement on her Instagram Story.

"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," Shymansky wrote. "She is an incredible person and always takes her fans, career, and performances seriously. I can only send huge apologies for the inconvenience caused."

Young herself addressed the cancellation at All Things Go, minutes before collapsing.

"Before I start this next song, I want to say I've had a tricky couple of days," she said in footage posted from the music festival. "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 sometimes life can throw you lemons, and you just gotta motherf---ing make lemonade."

Young, who shot to fame this year with her viral hit "Messy," released her third studio album on Friday, a bold pop-rock record titled *I'm Only F**king Myself*.

Since launching her career in 2015, Young has picked up numerous accolades, including a nomination for the Brit Award Rising Star in 2021. Along the way, the singer has been candid about her mental health struggles in interviews, revealing that she was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder when she was 17, a condition that can lead to prolonged manic episodes and hospitalization.

"Imagine a bottle overflowing," she told *The* *Telegraph* in 2022. "At a certain point, it becomes imposs­ible to put the lid back on, because it's simply been shaken up far too much."

"It's difficult for me because sometimes it can make me feel very ostracized," she added. "There can be a lot of shame and guilt after I get unwell in front of people. But I want to be open about it. It makes me who I am. I am proud of it."
