NEED TO KNOW

• Lola Young made a public appearance with Lily Allen and Olivia Rodrigo at Allen’s holiday party on December 19.
• This marked Young’s first public event since announcing a career hiatus in September.
• Young decided to take a break from performing following her collapse on stage at the All Things Go festival in New York City on September 27.

Lola Young was spotted attending Lily Allen’s Christmas party alongside Olivia Rodrigo, almost three months after collapsing on stage and subsequently announcing a hiatus from performing.

The 24-year-old singer donned a striking all-leather ensemble on the evening of December 19, featuring a plunging halter top, micro shorts, and knee-high leather boots. Her look was completed with chunky silver jewelry, marking Young’s first public appearance since her notable collapse during a performance at the All Things Go festival.

Following her collapse, Young communicated with fans on September 30, sharing her decision to prioritize her health. “I’m going away for a while. It pains me to say I have to cancel everything for the foreseeable future,” she stated in an Instagram post. “Thank you for all the love and support.”

Young subsequently canceled a series of tour dates, including a U.K. tour that was to commence on October 6 and over 20 performances scheduled across North America through December.

In her message to fans, Young expressed her apologies to those who had purchased tickets to her shows, saying it “hurts” her to cancel performances. She assured fans that they would be entitled to full refunds.

“I really hope you’ll give me a second chance once I’ve had some time to work on myself and come back stronger,” she added.

At the holiday party, the “Not Like That Anymore” artist was accompanied by Rodrigo, 22, who wore a vintage-inspired black lace mini dress over a cream slip, paired with classic black Mary Janes. Meanwhile, Allen, 40, sported a playful red-and-white Mrs. Claus-inspired outfit with fuzzy platform heels, hosting the festive gathering at Stingfellow’s in London, just days after her performance on Saturday Night Live where she showcased songs from her latest album, West End Girl.
