4 Times Singers Took A Tumble Onstage In 2024

Most likely, if you take a tumble at home or work, very few people know about it. You just get up, dust yourself off, and continue with your day. But if you are a famous singer and you fall down during a show, it’s everywhere. Fans snap photos and videos of the mishap, then post them on social media. So in addition to being red-faced from embarrassment, you have to contend with a windfall of unpleasant notoriety as well. In 2024, some singing celebs suddenly found themselves on their backsides on the stage. They all handled it with grace and dignity. So we doff our hats in respect to Billie Eilish, Luke Bryan, Chris Martin, and Darius Rucker.

Billie Eilish Fell During A Concert In New York

She Sustained A Bad Bruise On Her Leg

Eilish landed with a splat while singing at Madison Square Garden while amidst her Hit Me Hard and Soft Tour. Per foxnews.com, “A fan-captured video shows Eilish walking down a set of stairs before she seemingly trips and falls down. A concert-goer posted a video of the fall, with the words ‘Billie falling in NY,’ written over it, along with a sobbing emoji.” A photo shows a large discolored area on her leg from the fall.

Luke Bryan Tripped On Stage In Vancouver Last Spring

He Slid On A Cell Phone That Was Flung By A Fan

Bryan was just ambling across the stage normally when he found himself on the ground, thanks to a cell phone he abruptly tripped on. A fan threw it, unfortunately. He was in Vancouver, British Columbia, doing his musical thing for the Coast City Country Fest in April 2024. Someone took a video of the moment that “shows Bryan breaking his fall with his left arm, narrowly avoiding falling flat on his back and risking further injury.”

American Idol host Ryan Seacrest ribbed Bryan about it a little. “So, hold on. Before we get going, I just want to check to make sure. Luke, you’re moving OK. You looked all right at the open of the show there. . . . Are you damaged in any way?”

Bryan joshed, “What are you talking about Ryan?”

Chris Martin Fell Through A Trapdoor In Australia

He Was On Tour In Melbourne

In November, during the Music Of The Spheres world Tour, Martin apparently wasn’t looking where he was going for an instant and slid backwards through a trapdoor on stage. “In a video obtained by Fox News Digital, a pair of hands can be seen reaching out from the trapdoor to brace Martin’s fall and prevent any injuries.” Boy, was he lucky! Martin informed the audience that his fall was “not planned.”

Darius Rucker Seemed To Trip On A Monitor In October In South Carolina

He Joked About It With Good Humor Afterward

Rucker was in Charleston at the Riverfront Revival with Hootie & the Blowfish when he fell face-first after he apparently tripped over a monitor. He dealt with it like a real trouper. Per the outlet, Rucker quipped, “We’ve been doing this all summer. I hadn’t fell once. But I busted my a– in my hometown.”
