Brandy says a medical incident drove her offstage in Chicago Saturday night … revealing a sudden wave of dehydration threatened to make her faint.
The singer-songwriter explained her sudden departure from her United Center show in an Instagram post Sunday morning … telling her fans that — after weeks of nonstop rehearsals — she experienced feelings of dehydration during the show.
Brandy says she did return to the stage after initially leaving it … but adds she couldn’t connect to the tunes sonically — and acknowledges it wasn’t her best show by any stretch of imagination.
After leaving the show, Brandy says she went to a local doctor … and she’s taking proper precautions to avoid a situation like this in the future.

Brandy adds she’s deeply grateful to Monica for stepping up in a tough situation … as well as the entire crew for their support.
We shared video with you of Brandy bailing from the stage last night … and, at first glance, it seemed she was frustrated with sounds issues — which makes total sense now given she herself said she couldn’t quite connect with the music the right way.
Glad to hear you’re doing alright, Brandy … hopefully the rest of the reunion tour goes off without a hitch!
