Brandy Says Dehydration Made Her Leave Stage

After abruptly leaving the Chicago stop of her and Monica‘s The Boy Is Mine Tour, Brandy Norwood is explaining her exit and apologizing to fans. The artist explained that she “experienced dehydration and feelings of wanting to faint” before stepping off stage during Saturday’s performance at United Center, noting that she left the venue to “see a doctor nearby” and get checked out. “To my dear fans in Chicago, Thank you all for the overwhelming love, support, and—most importantly—your prayers,” she said in a statement. “I sincerely apologize for the abrupt end to last night’s performance in Chicago. After weeks of nonstop rehearsals, last night I experienced dehydration and feelings of wanting to faint, everyone involved agreed that prioritizing my well-being was of the utmost importance.” Norwood continued, “I still made the decision to try and return and give it my all despite not feeling ok. With having to make some adjustments and the show being very technical. Unfortunately, it was impossible to fully connect sonically with the production, I really appreciate everyone’s best efforts. Brandy added that she’s “deeply grateful to my sister, Monica, for stepping up with such grace and professionalism and the entire crew for their continued care and support.
