Wala naman pong nadetect na anything,” she said.</p><p>The 27-year-old OPM artist recalled the unfortunate incident that struck them while they were on the way to Ilocos Norte. They were coming from Aurora province where they had finished a gig when the van they were riding in collided with another vehicle. </p><p>“Yung buong left side pa ng body ko, masakit po talaga. Sobrang bugbog po siya. Nakahiga po kasi ako nung nangyari yung accident. So tumilapon po ako doon sa upuan ng driver’s seat. Hindi po [ako nakaseatbelt], nakahiga po kasi ako,” she recalled.</p><p>Even though they sustained minor injuries during the incident, Gigi added that her band still wanted to push through with their gig as they wanted to be “professional.”</p><div><a href="https://push.abs-cbn.com/2023/5/15/gigi-de-lana-faints-during-performance-in-ilocos-norte-cancels-show-in-nueva-ecija-1307"><strong>READ: Gigi de Lana faints during performance in Ilocos Norte, cancels show in Nueva Ecija</strong></a></div><p>“Lahat po kami [inisip na] ituloy yung event for the people and passion din kasi namin mag-perform. And to be professional din po kasi commitment siya eh. Nagpa-check up kami muna bago mag-proceed sa event para safe lahat and may clearance ng doctor na good to perform,” she continued.</p><p>However, during the event Gigi fainted which later on trended on social media as fans were concerned for her health. She then explained the reason for her fainting while she was singing on stage.</p><p>“Kasi di ba po kapag after ng accident, hindi mo naman mararamdaman agad lahat eh. Nung nandoon po ako sa stage, yung ilaw, tapos kakagaling lang sa accident. Alam niyo po yung para kang magblablackout? Hindi naman po ako totally nahimatay. Talaga pong nahilo lang and naramdaman ko lahat ng sakit. Hindi ko po makontrol yung boses ko. Nahilo na lang po talaga ako, hindi ko na kaya,” she explained. </p><p>Gigi and her Gigi Vibes bandmates are continuing their recovery as of this writing. In their official statement, they asked their fans for support and love as they will be back soon. </p>
