Rod Stewart, 81, pauses his Utah concert in West Valley City after nearly fainting onstage. Multiple outlets report that during his performance at the Utah First Credit Union Amphitheatre, Stewart needed oxygen and took pulls from an oxygen tank kept onstage. Audience video described him leaning against a piano before stopping the show and stepping away from the microphone to use the oxygen supply. Afterward, Stewart tells the crowd that he nearly fainted and asks if he can sit down, then continues the performance from a seated position, according to several reports. Other coverage adds that he received additional support such as a cold compress backstage. The incident follows recent disruptions to his touring schedule, with outlets noting he had canceled or postponed shows due to health concerns and a respiratory-related illness, though details vary by source. Despite the episode, Stewart finishes the concert, including references to later songs and a continued “show must go on” message to attendees.
