Wynonna Judd has given fans an update on the current status of her health.

Ever since the death of her mother, Naomi Judd, in 2021, fans have been keeping a close eye on Wynonna. That's why when she had a scare during a recent live performance in Dayton, Oh., listeners were immediately concerned about the singer's health.

In a TikTok from the performance, Wynonna can be heard saying, "Hang on a second. I am really dizzy. Can someone come up here please? I'm really dehydrated, and I'm having a hard time so hang on a second."

The video also shows the singer making light of the situation, telling concertgoers, "If I faint, just take a lot of pictures, okay?"

Wynonna, determined to keep the show going, also refused to sit down on a stool brought out for her. "Screw the stool. I'm going down big," she said. She powered through her song before her dizziness forced her to sit down while performing "Grandpa" afterward. Later in the concert, the star was joined by Little Big Town and Martina McBride on stage.

In the wake of her scary live moment going viral, Wynonna sat down with Entertainment Tonight to discuss what went down.

"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 told the publication. "I'm real and I'm not perfect. I'm perfectly imperfect."

The singer added, "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 then noted that she was doing "really good" in the wake of it all.

The singer reassured fans once again with an Instagram post on Feb. 14, 2023. There, she wrote, "All is well, y’all. @littlebigtown and @martinamcbride, you are SUCH a blessing to me. Thank you for holding me up, literally and figuratively!"
