We're sending our best wishes to Wynonna Judd!
Shortly after her mother's passing in April 2022, the Hall of Fame inductee pledged to continue performing for fans in honor of Naomi's legacy. The mother-daughter duo was scheduled for their final tour, but among grieving and performing, it seems that Wynonna's health is taking an unexpected turn.
The "Love Can Build a Bridge" singer recently took to the stage in Dayton, Ohio, but quickly noticed that something was wrong. In the midst of her performance, Wynonna halted the show after becoming extremely dizzy. "Hang on a second. I am really dizzy. Can someone come up here please?" she said into the mic per a TikTok from the show. "I'm really dehydrated, and I'm having a hard time so hang on a second," she continued.
Luckily, Wynonna had a good sense of humor about the situation and joked, "If I faint, just take a lot of pictures, okay?" Soon afterward, she continued the show and refused to sit down on a stool brought for on stage. "Screw the stool. I'm going down big," she joked.
The supportive crowd serenaded Wynonna as she powered through her dizzy spell before sitting down to perform "Grandpa," and later being joined on stage by Little Big Town and Martina McBride.
Concerned for Wynonna's health, fans rallied around the singer in the comment section saying, "I think Wynonna needs to take time, so much has happened, and she is pushing herself so hard for everyone! Take care of yourself! ❤️" and "I think Wynonna needs to take time, so much has happened, and she is pushing herself so hard for everyone! Take care of yourself! ❤️"
After the incident, the singer spoke with Entertainment Tonight about how she's doing. "Life is so full of so many things and feelings and people, and for me, it's all happening every single night in those two hours," she said. "I'm real and I'm not perfect. I'm perfectly imperfect. And I struggle, and I say it on stage. I say 'I'm struggling right now,' and sometimes I have to sit down because I'm so overwhelmed, and the love coming at me knocks me over, literally. I've had to sit down because it's too much." Wynonna went on to say that she's doing "really well" right now.
She also posted photos from the event to Instagram with the caption, "All is well, y’all. @littlebigtown and @martinamcbride, you are SUCH a blessing to me. Thank you for holding me up, literally and figuratively! ❤️"
Unfortunately, this isn't the singer's first health scare this year. Earlier, she updated fans after having to cancel a concert due to "an extreme bout of vertigo." The condition causes major dizziness, nausea, and can even lead to hearing loss in serious cases.
Although, the severity of Wynonna's vertigo remains unknown, we're glad to hear she's doing well!
