BREAKING: Alan Jackson Cancels All Morning Plans After NYC Earthquake โ โI Heard Mamaโs Voice Telling Me to Get Outโ ๐ณ๐
New York City, August 3, 2025 โ The country music world is reeling after Alan Jackson shared a chilling story in the wake of Saturdayโs earthquake that rattled parts of New York. The 66-year-old legend, who was staying in Manhattan for a series of meetings and media appearances, says he canceled all his morning plans after being awoken by what he swears was his late motherโs voice warning him to โget out.โ
โI swearโฆ it was my mamaโs voice. Clear as day. Said, โGet up now, baby,โโ Jackson told close friends, according to a source who spoke exclusively to us. โAnd seconds later, I felt the whole place move.โ
The 3.0-magnitude quake, though relatively mild by seismic standards, was strong enough to be felt across Manhattan and surrounding areas โ but whatโs stunned fans is Jacksonโs eerie account, which he says came moments before the tremors began.
The Warning That Saved His Morning
According to reports, Jackson was staying at a Midtown hotel when the quake hit. He had planned to leave early for a breakfast meeting, but after being awoken by what he described as his motherโs voice, he changed his plans and remained in his suite.
โWhen the floor shook and that glass rattled, he just froze,โ the insider revealed. โAlanโs a man of deep faith, and he believes without a doubt that it was his mama watching over him.โ
Alanโs mother, Ruth Musick Jackson, passed away in 2017, but the country singer has often spoken about how deeply her presence still influences his life. In interviews, heโs shared how she inspired many of his most heartfelt songs and taught him to listen to his instincts โ and, in his words, โthe whispers God sends.โ
Premonition or Coincidence?
This isnโt the first time Jackson has mentioned what fans are now calling his โpremonition dreams.โ
โHeโs talked before about feeling his mama with him during tough times,โ said longtime friend and collaborator Keith Stegall. โBut this is the first time heโs said it was so direct โ like she was right there in the room.โ
Skeptics may dismiss it as coincidence, but those who know Alan best arenโt surprised. โHeโs got a spiritual side most people donโt see,โ Stegall added. โThis isnโt some PR story. He genuinely believes his mama told him to get up.โ
A Morning That Could Have Gone Very Differently
While the quake didnโt cause major structural damage, witnesses reported chaotic scenes in parts of the city โ falling glass, frightened commuters, and several minor injuries.
โAlan kept saying he was grateful he didnโt head out when heโd planned to,โ the source said. โIf he had been on the street, in the middle of traffic or surrounded by crowds, who knows how it could have gone.โ
Itโs unclear whether Jackson will continue with his planned appearances in New York this week, as his team has reportedly asked for time to โreassess his schedule.โ
Fans React: โMamaโs Still Watching Over Himโ
As soon as news of Jacksonโs experience hit social media, fans flooded his accounts with messages of love and support.
โYour mamaโs still looking out for you, Alan. Thatโs what love is,โ one fan wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
Another added: โThis gave me chills. My mama passed last year, and I believe they never really leave us.โ
Many are now sharing their own stories of โspiritual warningsโ and premonitions, turning Jacksonโs experience into a larger conversation about faith, intuition, and family bonds that transcend death.
The Mystery of Alan Jacksonโs โPremonition Dreamsโ
This isnโt the first time Jacksonโs instincts โ or what he calls โnudges from aboveโ โ have made headlines. In 2011, he famously canceled a flight last minute, later learning that the plane experienced severe mechanical issues midair.
In a 2020 interview, he shared that he sometimes dreams of his mother and late loved ones before major life decisions, calling those dreams โa blessing.โ
โItโs like theyโre helping me figure it out,โ Jackson said at the time.
Whatโs Next for the Country Legend?
For now, Jackson is taking time to rest and reflect, according to his team. But sources close to the singer hint that this experience may inspire new music.
โAlan processes life through songs,โ one insider said. โDonโt be surprised if this ends up in his lyrics. Itโs how he makes sense of things.โ
Whether you see it as coincidence, divine intervention, or simply a powerful moment of intuition, one thing is clear: Alan Jacksonโs story has struck a chord far beyond the country music world.
As one fan perfectly summed it up: โWhen your mama speaks, you listen. Even from heaven.โ
