Muni Long Revealed She Underwent A Double Lung Transplant
According to PEOPLE, Muni Long appeared on ‘Good Morning America’ earlier this week. During her appearance, she reflected on joining Monica and Brandy’s ‘The Boy Is Mine’ tour last year and running into health concerns.
“I should have never taken that tour. But there was so much going on in my life where I had to do it,” she said.

Long, who was diagnosed with lupus in 2014, revealed that she fell ill while on the tour and was diagnosed with pneumonia. For Thanksgiving, she went home, and then woke up to herself in the hospital. There, doctors reportedly told her that she needed a double lung transplant.
“I knew for a really long time that something was wrong. Every day I’m, like, spitting in cups and coughing all the time. Trying to take all these medicines to get through the day,” she recalled.
Then, doctors told her that she only had a week to live.
“My jaw dropped. Literally. I was like, ‘That’s rude.’ But they were kind of like, ‘This is not a joke. You need to make a choice. You can either go to hospice, or you can get these lungs,'” she added.
Ultimately, Long underwent the procedure and is now feeling “fabulous.”
“Tomorrow is my last appointment for all the things. No symptoms. Asymptomatic. No infections. None of that. Then I have my vocal checkup, six months will be in August because I had to have vocal surgery, as well… My voice now is totally different. It’s actually better, should I say? But I don’t know that I can perform yet. They gave me six months to a year,” she said.

Here’s What Happened Before Muni Long Revealed She Underwent A Double Lung Transplant
As The Shade Room previously reported, Muni Long made headlines when she abruptly exited ‘The Boy Is Mine’ tour in November 2025. At the time, she had missed a few tour stops and ultimately took to social media to tell fans, “… Despite doing everything I can to push through, my doctors have made it clear that it’s not safe for me to continue with the remaining dates of the tour. I’ll truly miss seeing you all out there, and I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity. Thank you to Brandy and Monica for having me and sharing the stage with me. I can’t wait to see you all again. Stronger than ever”
