\nLola Young is known for speaking out about mental health issues<\/p>\n
Lola Young told the crowd “I’ve missed this so much” as she rounded off her first UK tour since she collapsed on stage during a New York concert last year.<\/p>\n
The 25-year-old Grammy winner brought the curtain down on a brief six-date UK tour at the O2 Academy Brixton on Friday night.<\/p>\n
After finishing hit song D\u00a3aler, the pop star stopped and told the crowd she wanted to say something “serious” and referenced the “dark place” she was in last year.<\/p>\n
She said: “I thought this is like it, no one\u2019s going to show up, I felt like the world was properly closing in, and now, it\u2019s all OK \u2026 So I just wanted to say, thank you so much.<\/p>\n
“And to anyone who feels like they\u2019re struggling with whatever it is you just have to remember, take time with yourself, surround yourself with people who love you, you are loved.”<\/p>\n
Young collapsed on 27 September 2025 while performing at the All Things Go music festival at Forest Hills Stadium in New York.<\/p>\n

She could be seen swaying before falling backwards in viral videos of the moment, while performing Conceited from her second studio album.<\/p>\n
The pop star cancelled all upcoming performances and told fans she was “going away for a while” and wanted to “come back stronger”.<\/p>\n
Young, who is known for speaking out about mental health issues, returned to headlining shows in March for a one-off concert at the London Palladium.<\/p>\n
Immediately after her heartfelt moment with the crowd there was a technical difficulty, which led Young to joke that she had “never had to talk so much” at a concert.<\/p>\n
She then moved swiftly to the piano and launched into powerful acoustic versions of Can We Ignore It and Bad Game (3AM) while she waited for the issue to be fixed.<\/p>\n
Her tour, running from June 10 to 19, saw the Messy singer stop in Manchester, Birmingham and Glasgow before finishing with two dates in London.<\/p>\n
Young told the crowd on Friday that they were the “rowdiest” she had on the tour.<\/p>\n
“I\u2019ve missed this so much but I will be back, and thank you, this means the world,” said Young.<\/p>\n
