Rod Stewart nearly passed out on stage, needing oxygen during a concert in Utah

Rod Stewart almost suffered a medical emergency mid-show just weeks after canceling several gigs due to health issues.

On Friday, the 81-year-old singer – who was performing at the Utah First Credit Union Amphitheater in West Valley City – caused concern after slowing down mid-concert.

In a video obtained by TMZ, Stewart became heavily dependent on various devices while still trying to sing. At one point, he turned and nodded to a group of backstage people who quickly got to know him.

One woman took out an oxygen tank, and another put a cold machine on his neck.

“The show must go on,” Stewart said into the microphone, before admitting he “almost fainted.”

A representative for Stewart did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.

Last month, Stewart canceled two shows in Las Vegas it’s a few hours before he goes on stage.

An additional statement from Stewart himself read, “My apologies to my family of fans. I’m resting as I recover from a sinus infection. I look forward to seeing you at a future show at Caesars Palace or on tour this summer.”

Earlier this month, Stewart canceled more shows in California.

“Yes, here I am in beautiful Chula Vista as the stage is lowered next to me. Following treatment, I feel much better, but my voice is not there,” he wrote on his Instagram Stories at the time, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune.

“I am very disappointed and sincerely apologize for any inconvenience to my fans. I did everything I could to make the show happen tonight, but unfortunately it didn’t happen. I will do my best to reschedule,” he said.

A day later, Stewart shared a video of himself on his private jet with his sons Liam, 31, and Alastair, 20.

“The boys and I are headed to Boston to see our Scotland in the World Cup! No, Scotland does not have a team,” he wrote in the caption.

After videos and photos surfaced of Stewart enjoying a football game, the singer sparked an uproar with some fans expressing their displeasure in the comments section of his post.

“This sounds ridiculous, especially after you canceled last night. You’re too sick to play but it’s okay to fly across the country for football?” wrote one Instagram user.

“So you beat all the people in San Diego who wanted to see you in concert but were able to go to the world cup I see! I’m a big fan of yours but I don’t think that’s good,” added another.
