\n\tPost Malone<\/a> took an unexpected tumble off the stage during a recent stop on his\u00a0<\/a>The Big Ass Stadium Tour<\/a> \u2014 but didn\u2019t miss a beat.<\/p>\n \n\tThe fall happened during Malone\u2019s performance of \u201cPour Me a Drink<\/a>\u201d at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Ariz., on Saturday (June 29). As seen in fan-filmed footage<\/a> that quickly spread across social media, the singer knelt down to toast a front-row fan who had her plastic cup raised, when a piece of the stage gave way beneath him. Malone \u2014 still smiling and holding his own cup \u2014 suddenly dropped out of frame as the platform collapsed.<\/p>\n \n\tDespite the abrupt fall, the Grammy-nominated artist (born Austin Post) appeared unshaken. He reportedly got back onstage almost immediately, continuing to sing and raising his cup to finish the cheers, drawing cheers of his own from the crowd.<\/p>\n \n\tOne fan posted the viral clip on TikTok with the caption, \u201cI am SO sorry Austin. I love you! Such an amazing show,\u201d referencing her role in the moment. Onscreen text read, \u201cI didn\u2019t mean to almost break your back,\u201d in a playful nod to the song\u2019s lyric: \u201cI\u2019ve been breakin\u2019 my back.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tMalone\u2019s quick recovery brought flashbacks to a more serious onstage accident in September 2022<\/a>, when he fell through a trapdoor during a show in St. Louis and suffered bruised ribs. That incident led to a hospital visit and prompted the artist to promise fans he\u2019d return to the city for a longer makeup show.<\/p>\n \n\tMalone is currently in the middle of the North American leg of his tour, which supports his F-1 Trillion<\/em> album. The Arizona show was among his biggest of the summer, and he\u2019ll continue the run with more stadium and arena dates before heading to Europe and Asia in August.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cPour Me a Drink\u201d \u2014 the track soundtracking the mishap \u2014 is a country-pop crossover duet with Blake Shelton. The song debuted during the 2024 Academy of Country Music Awards and topped Billboard<\/em>\u2019s\u00a0Country Airplay<\/a>\u00a0chart (dated Oct. 12). The collaboration advanced by 5% to 27.9 million audience impressions Sept. 27-Oct. 3, according to Luminate.<\/p>\n The song, which Post Malone co-wrote, is his second\u00a0Country<\/a>\u00a0Airplay No. 1, after \u201cI Had Some Help,\u201d featuring Morgan Wallen, dominated for four frames beginning in June. <\/p>\n \n\tBoth hits are from his introductory LP in the genre,\u00a0F-1 Trillion<\/em>, which motored in at No. 1 on the Aug. 31-dated Top Country Albums chart and the all-genre Billboard 200 with 250,000 equivalent album units earned in the United States. The set earned 1.1 million units over its first six weeks of release.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
