Post Malone Injured In Concert Stage Fall, Returns To Finish Show After Brief Delay
Singer Post Malone suffered apparent injuries to his ribs Saturday night after taking a hard fall on stage during a show in St. Louis.
Malone was performing “circles” when he tripped on an uncovered hole in the stage that was used to lower equipment. He laid on the stage for several minutes after the fall as medics assisted him. He eventually stood and was helped off the stage, but told the crowd he would return.
After a 15-minute delay, he came back and resumed with an abbreviated set, holding his ribs and visibly wincing at times.
The tour has just started for Post Malone, with dates planned tonight through the middle of November. No statements on his condition or the status of those shows has been issued as of yet.
Post Malone took a super nasty fall onstage ... it was so bad, medics had to help him off and the fans didn't know whether to wait it out or pack it in.
It happened Saturday night in St. Louis at the Enterprise Center halfway through the concert, where he was performing "Circles."
Post was showin' his stuff as he walked down a ramp that extended onto the floor of the arena. It would've gone fine, but there was a hole in the floor that he used to lower his guitar and it hadn't been covered up.
He stepped in it and took an awful fall ... sprawled out on the concert floor. An eyewitness tells TMZ one of his legs was shaking uncontrollably. Medics rushed in and eventually flanked him as he left the stage.
He asked fans to give him a few minutes to collect himself, but clearly, everyone was concerned and some doubtful he'd even return.
15 minutes later, Post resurfaced and performed "Rockstar" and "Cooped Up." "Rockstar" fits because Post was determined to continue even though he clearly was in pain ... clutching his ribs as he sang.
Post thanked the crowd for hangin' in there and told them there was a "big-ass hole in the stage" and even apologized -- not necessary. He finished out the show and even stayed after to sign a few autographs.
No word on his condition ... but he's scheduled to continue his "Twelve Carat Tour" in Columbus Sunday.
