Wynonna Judd opened up about continuing to perform on her own after the death of her mother, Naomi Judd.
"These shows are healing me, one show at a time," she told Hoda Kotb during her appearance on Today.
"And all my friends are coming and it’s like the greatest party you throw yourself before the end," she continued.

"I'm somewhere between hell and hallelujah," the singer noted when describing her feelings.
Naomi Judd died from suicide in April 2022. Wynonna continued with "The Judds: The Final Tour" on her own. The tour was announced just weeks before her mother's passing.
"I will cry and then go right into the next song," she stated. She also shared that she keeps tissues on her at all times during the shows.
