Lewis Capaldi admitted he 'has vertigo' at an intimate screening of his new documentary last night.
In a room full of fans and friends, the 26-year-old singer opened up about his newly diagnosed health problem in typical Capaldi fashion.
The 'Someone You Loved' singer said: "I thought I was dying for a few days there, but here we are."
As part of a Q and A prior to the screening, Capaldi opened up about the process of making a documentary and the vulnerability that comes with it.

He told attendees: "It's f***ing awful, I hated every minute of it.
"Being famous feels really embarrassing.
"When you have a camera crew, you just feel like a massive c**t.
"I don't like being the centre of attention, and I know that sounds mental because you're all here to see a film about my life.
"But It feels amazing and quite large to have this film now.
"It's exciting and I never thought I would have a Netflix documentary, but here we are."
The documentary, 'How I'm Feeling Now', which comes out April 5 on Netflix, sees a completely new side to Capaldi.
Directed by Joe Pearlman, fans will see the comedic, cheeky-chap that they know and love, but also a much more stripped-back, vulnerable side to the Whitburn-born star.
From struggles with mental health to the diagnosis of his Tourette’s, the documentary shows the ups and downs of fame and being in the public eye, as well as how lockdown preyed on the Celtic fans' struggles with imposter syndrome.
The star also gets candid about his home life, going to therapy, the suicide of his Auntie and even how his Mum once had to pick him up from a one-night stand.
Fans will also get a looking glass into the making of Capaldi's second record, 'Broken By Desire To Be Heavenly Sent', which was made in the likes of London, LA, Glasgow and his parents' shed.

Cameos from Lewis's parents, friends and writing team, as well as special appearances from the likes of Bastille frontman Dan Smith and Niall Horan will also excite fans of the singer.
Talking about what fans can expect when the documentary airs, Lewis told attendees of the Everyman Cinema event: "It's a depressing film.
"When I saw the first cut, I thought this looks like a film where I die at the end.
"But we had a few more months of filming and things turned around and as far as I'm aware, I don't die at the end.
"It's harrowing, and it's pretty sad, it's vulnerable.
"There’s a lot of things in the film that were beginning to be resolved that are now resolved. It was a wake-up call seeing the first draft.
"I thought the documentary would be the coolest. I had these big shows booked for 2020 and I thought I’d look the business.
"But then Covid hit, and it became quite an intimate thing.
"So, I'm nervous for people to see it but I'm excited.
"I'm bearing all."
