After hurriedly leaving the stage during his performance in Hartford, Connecticut on Saturday, July 15, Jason Aldean gave fans an update on his health.
The country singer, 46, explained in a series of Instagram Story videos on Sunday, July 16, “It was hot out, I was playing golf all day yesterday, and then [I] got to the show and there was a combination of dehydration and just heat exhaustion.”. “So, I’ve heard a lot of things, like heat stroke, going around. Although I don’t think it was quite that serious, the show last night was quite intense. ”.

Aldean continued by saying that although he “knew [the heat exhaustion] was coming,” he tried to “get through as much of the show as I could” before leaving the stage in the middle of his song “Crazy Town” to get help. On Aldean’s setlist, which consists of a total of 22 songs, “Crazy Town” is the 13th song. ).
He continued, “I knew it wasn’t going to happen, and I was just trying to get off stage and figure out what was going on.
Aldean claims that after ending the performance early, he got “a couple of IVs” and got more medical attention on Sunday. “Tonight I have a performance in Saratoga Springs, New York. We’re going to perform that concert and then we’ll make it up to you guys in Hartford, too. I’m sorry once more for cutting the show short, but we’ll return and make it up to you. Also, I feel a lot, lot better. So, thank you for tuning in, and, I dunno, maybe we’ll see you tonight. (On Sunday, Aldean completed his performance without incident. ).

An additional Hartford performance would be “rescheduled for a future date,” according to a statement made on Instagram by the Connecticut performance’s venue, Xfinity Theatre, after Saturday’s performance. We appreciate your patience as we work to find a new date, as well as the outpouring of good wishes for Jason, the message continued. Following heat stroke during last night’s performance, a representative has confirmed that he is now doing well. ”.
On his Highway Desperado Tour, which began on Friday, July 14, Aldean made his second stop in Hartford. The tour’s first stop was Bethel, New York. Over 40 stops will be made by the “You Make It Easy” singer throughout the U.S. S. and Canada until October 28.
The Grammy nominee’s health scare comes almost a year after he was fired from his longtime PR company following allegations that his wife, Brittany Aldean, had posted transphobic remarks on Instagram. Tyne Parrish, a co-owner of the business, stated in a September 2022 statement to Billboard that “music has always been and remains The GreenRoom’s core focus, so we had to make the difficult decision after 17 years to step away from representing Jason.”. We are no longer the best candidates for the job, but we will always be huge fans of his music because he is one of the best country musicians in terms of live entertainment.

After writing in the caption of an August 2022 Instagram makeup tutorial, “I’d really like to thank my parents for not changing my gender when I went through my tomboy phase,” Brittany, 35, started a social media feud with Maren Morris and Cassadee Pope the previous month. I adore living the girly life.
”.
Pope, 33, tweeted in response, “You’d think celebs with beauty brands would see the positives in including LGBTQ+ people in their messaging. Instead, we are now listening to someone compare their “tomboy phase” to someone who wants to transition. Nicely done. ”.
Selling your clip-ins and packing it in, Insurrection Barbie, is so much easier than being a scumbag human, wrote Morris, also 33, in response to Pope’s tweet.
”.
For her part, Brittany quickly followed up with more criticism in an Instagram Story post. “One of the worst evils is to support child genital mutilation while claiming that it is ‘gender-affirming care. I will always stand by my kids and do everything I can to keep them innocent. Memphis, 5, and Navy, 4, are Jason and Brittany’s children. Together with his ex-wife Jessica Ussery, Jason also has two daughters, Keeley, 20, and Kendyl, 15. ).
