Olivia Rodrigo suffered a shocking gaffe when she fell through the stage during the final Melbourne show on her Australian Guts tour.
The pop star, 21, took to the stage in front of around 14,000 fans at Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena on Monday night for her fourth and final concert in the city.
She put on her usual high-energy performance but left fans horrified during one tense moment when she suddenly fell through a hole in the stage.
The American singer was hyping up the crowds and running across the stage with her microphone to hear them cheering when the unfortunate mishap occurred.
Video footage shared to social media showed the Vampire hitmaker dashing from one side of the stage to the other when she suddenly fell through a hole.
Her fans could be heard gasping in horror as she disappeared through a floor hatch, which had seemingly been accidentally left open from an earlier entrance.
Thankfully, Olivia managed to catch her hands on the edge of the stage and clamber back up on stage, sharing her shock at the unexpected fall with the crowds.
Sounding shaken, she assured her fans she was unharmed as she said: ‘Oh my God! That was fun, I’m OK! Sometimes there is just a hole in the stage, OK… where was I?’
