Tyla, the 22-year-old “Water” sensation, is back (sort of) with an update about her health—because why not make headlines with a story about a spine?
Earlier this year, our girl had to hit the brakes on her world tour after her back decided to play “Twister” without warning. But now she’s healing and chatted with People magazine about the bumpy road to recovery. Spoiler alert: it involves a lot of TV, festivals, and physical therapy.
The Good News: Tyla’s On Stage Again!
“It felt soooo good,” she said, like someone who just found out you can still get McFlurries at 3 a.m. “It’s been hard not doing all the things… like you know, bending down to tie my shoes without feeling like I’m attempting a yoga pose called ‘The Human Pretzel.’” But she’s back to doing a little, and she’s doing it wholeheartedly. Like, she’s giving 110%, people! Meanwhile, I can’t even give 50% when making a sandwich.
Tyla: The New Kid On The Block
“People forget, I’m still the new kid here!” she said, probably shaking her fist in the air like an old-timey prospector. “I’m figuring out the stage stuff—what I like, what I don’t like, and most importantly, how to stand without feeling like my spine is auditioning for Cirque du Soleil.” Tyla’s tour is coming, and when it does, she promises it’ll be as amazing as that feeling when you find $20 in your pocket that you totally forgot about.
The Recovery Struggle is Real (And Relatable)
Recovering from back issues? Not exactly the type of thing you can just walk off like a stubbed toe. Tyla admits the journey has been more frustrating than trying to untangle a pair of earbuds, but she’s committed. Physical therapy has become her new hobby—because why wouldn’t you want to spend your days contorting like a circus performer in slow motion? “Your back is important,” she explained, as if we didn’t already know from that one time we tried lifting a couch and regretted every life decision ever. “I’m taking my time—nobody needs a rushed comeback where I end up moving like a robot from the ’80s.”
A Zen Approach to Downtime
When life gives you lemons… slow down and think about it for a minute. Tyla is seeing this downtime as a chance to hit the brakes and maybe binge-watch some Netflix, all while contemplating her existence. “Maybe God wanted me to take a break,” she mused, probably while lighting a candle and sipping herbal tea like a full-on yoga guru. “Breathe, relax, and focus on me. You know, Tyla-time.” Honestly, if God told me to slow down, I’d be like, “Sure thing, do I get some snacks too?”
New Tunes On The Horizon
The best part of all this? While the back’s been healing, Tyla’s brain has been busy working on some fresh music. She’s had some deep, philosophical growth this year—like the kind where you realize, maybe you shouldn’t eat an entire pizza by yourself at 2 a.m. “This new music is the evolved me, the now-me!” she teased. So, get ready to hear the sound of a woman who’s stronger, wiser, and possibly has better posture than ever before.
Tyla’s back journey might be long, but it’s filled with wisdom, new beats, and the occasional stretch break. And when she’s back at 100%, expect a tour that’ll blow your mind—and probably your back, too, if you’re not careful!
