Post Malone suffered a major tumble off stage during a recent Arizona concert.
A fan took to TikTok on Tuesday, July 1, to share a clip of herself front row holding her plastic cup up to Malone (real name Austin Post) while the musician was performing “Pour Me a Drink” during his State Farm Stadium show in Glendale, Arizona.
Malone, whose Big Ass World Tour ventures internationally in August, was seen holding his own cup while walking towards the fan, a smile spread across his face. The singer was then kneeled down to toast the fan, which dislodged the bottom of the stage, causing it to fall apart.
As the fan’s cup remained in the shot, ready to cheers the cup Malone, 29, was attempting to hold out, Malone tumbled down with the stage piece, falling off the stage and drawing screams from fans.
Luckily, Malone managed to hit the ground on his feet (with his cup still in hand) as the video captured the stage completely dismantled. The video ended shortly after, with no sign of Malone during the aftermath.
The fan captioned her post, “I am SO sorry Austin. I love you! Such an amazing show.” She also included text written across the clip just prior to Malone’s fall, which read, “I didn’t mean to almost break your back.” (Seconds before his fall, Malone says the lyrics, “I’ve been breakin’ my back.”)
Additional social media footage that caught the moment showed that Malone was seemingly unharmed by the incident, even managing to continue singing his hit track and raising his cup into the sky to toast his adoring fans.
The incident wasn’t the first time to see Malone fall while performing in concert. Malone took a tumble in September 2022 during a show at the Enterprise Center in St. Louis, Missouri.
The earlier fall proved far more serious than the recent one, with Malone’s manager later confirming that Malone was hospitalized with bruised ribs and taking pain medication to recover from falling through a hole during the show.
Malone addressed the incident in a video shared via X some days later. “I just want to apologize to everyone in St. Louis, and I want to say thank you guys so much for coming to the show,” Malone was heard saying in the video at the time. “And next time I’m around this way, we’re gonna do a two-hour show for you so we can make up for the couple missed songs that we missed.”
