Marie Kraymbreri shared a video from a recent concert on social media, showing the moment despite a heart condition that had already begun to complicate her schedule. The clip sparked questions about how performers cope under medical stress while on tour and in public view.
She later recalled that four hours before posting the video, she had learned she could not perform due to a heart-related illness and faced an immediate need for medical care. She described having angina and a fever of 38.6 degrees, and she admitted she spent the night in a hotel, wrestling with a profound sense of weakness. The fear and physical strain were evident, even as she tried to keep the show on track in the moment.
According to her account, the previous day she had performed in Murmansk and managed to receive intravenous fluids at a local hospital. She indicated that she concealed her medical status from the production team and pleaded with them not to cancel any performances. The singer admitted that the pressure of disappointing fans or failing on stage could feel overwhelming, and she did not want to be the one to step back from a chance to perform.
She acknowledged that she had made things worse for herself, and the results of pushing through were significant. Even then, she was unsure if she would attempt a similar approach in the future. Yet there was a sense of resolve in her recollection—an insistence that, despite the strain, she would persevere and continue to perform when possible.
In a related note, the entertainment world has seen other high-profile moments on stage. Previously, Dima Bilan commented that Kraymbreri had sustained a rib injury during a performance, an incident that added to the public discourse around the physical demands placed on touring artists and the risks they face on stage.
