Lorde Halts Lollapalooza Show for Fans Amidst Heat

Lorde halted her Lollapalooza headline set in Chicago on Thursday due to extreme heat. Multiple fans in the crowd passed out during the opening night of the four-day music festival. The singer paused her performance at least three times to ensure concertgoers received assistance from security and first responders. Acknowledging the high temperatures, Lorde engaged with the audience before continuing with her popular songs. A notable moment of the evening was Lorde's surprise appearance of Charli XCX. The two artists performed their viral collaboration, "Girl, So Confusing," which garnered a significant reaction from the crowd. Lorde's previous appearances at Lollapalooza were in 2014 and 2017, with the latter being cut short due to severe weather. The festival, held in Grant Park, features other headliners including Charli XCX and The Smashing Pumpkins.
