Olivia Rodrigo Laughs Off Falling Through Hole in the Stage in Melbourne
Written by djfrosty on October 14, 2024
Olivia Rodrigo handled what could have been an embarrassing — and scary — situation like a pro.
In a video circulating TikTok from one of the “Drivers License” singer’s show at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, Australia, Rodrigo is seen hyping up the crowd by running across the stage. However, there was an opening in the stage she didn’t see and she fell right through, grabbing the ledge and then ultimately pulling herself back up.
“Oh my God, that was fun,” she tells the crowd with a laugh. “I’m OK. Woah. Sometimes there’s just a hole in the stage. That’s alright!”
She then looked at the crowd, brushing off the moment and thankfully not hurt, telling the audience, “Where was I? How are you doing tonight, Melbourne?”
