Olivia Rodrigo is doing OK after she fell onstage during her Melbourne, Australia, concert earlier this month.
While appearing on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Tuesday, October 29, the singer, 21, recalled what it was like to fall through a hole onstage during her latest tour — and how she was able to recover on the spot.
“Oh my God, that was fun! I'm OK,” Rodrigo said as the video played of her falling. "Wow, sometimes, just there's just a hole in the stage."
The star recently fell through a hole while on stage in Australia.
Though she can now laugh about the incident, Rodrigo said the moment was "really scary."
“Watching the video back, it’s pretty terrifying,” the Grammy winner continued. “I mean the show must go on, that’s showbiz baby. It was actually kind of a beautiful thing and I’m really happy it happened in hindsight. So I had just been to the Philippines. That was my next stop, Australia, after the Philippines. And I was thinking about my family and my heritage and my relatives and I fell and I was like all shaken up. And I went to the hospital after. Nothing happened but they just wanted to make sure I didn’t have a concussion.”
The singer spoke about the 'terrifying' incident on October 29.
