A lot of you guys have been reaching out and giving your support and sending your love, which I appreciate so much. So just wanted to say thank you. [...] Kind of felt like just popping on and playing one of my favorite songs," she continued before sharing an acoustic performance of "Yesterday" by the Beatles. "No plan, no muss, no fuss, no reason, I just felt like it. So here's one of my favorite songs. Thank you guys, love you all, see you soon."
