FAN THEORIES

However, fans noticed something strange about the 59-year-old during the Idol performance.

Several said Wynonna "hardly moved" throughout the entire song.

Fans were quick to point out the phenomena on X, formerly known asTwitter.

Many noted that the issue could be linked to a health concern.

"Wynonna Judd really didn't move at all during her song. It was slightly disturbing," one remarked on the X thread.

"@Wynonna is DEFINITELY hiding some kind of health issue on @AmericanIdol," a second theorized.

"Something’s off with Wynonna," said a third.

"Wynonna… it’s giving you don’t wanna be there," a fourth quipped.

"What is wrong with #Wynonna she acted the same way when she sang with #JellyRoll," another reflected.

CMA CONCERNS

Back in November, Wynonna sang alongsideJelly Roll at the CMA awards.

The redhead clutched onto the rapper's jacket throughout the performance.

Fans attributed the issue to vertigo, claiming the stage lights might trigger the country star.

"Wynonna has vertigo and you could see in her eyes she was having it. The lights flashing will set it off.

I got out there and I was so nervous that I just held on for dear life. And that's the bottom line.

"I have it and flashing lights no way. Glad Jelly realized it and held onto her. She also had a grip on him,"one shared.

"Jelly Roll was spot on and Wynonna sounded great but something was for sure going on with her.

"She appears to be needing to hang on him for balance and almost looked like a mannequin while performing. Hoping it’s not something medical that’s bad going on,"a second agreed.

WYNONNA'S RESPONSE

But Wynonna denied any health problems the next day when she shared a video explaining her behavior.

"I'm just gonna come clean with y'all. I was so freaking nervous," she claimed with a smile.

"I got out there and I looked at Jelly Roll. I wanted it to be so good for him. I could cry right now, but I'm not going to because I'm such a fan of his and he asked me to sing and I said, 'Absolutely!'
