Pop star Olivia Rodrigo experienced an unexpected accident during her final Melbourne concert on the Australian leg of her Guts tour. In front of around 14,000 fans at Melbourne's Rod Laver Arena, the 21-year-old singer fell through a hole in the stage while performing. This incident happened when she was running across the stage, hyping up the crowd with her microphone. Video footage circulating on social media captures the moment when Rodrigo, best known for her hit "Vampire," disappeared through an open floor hatch. Fans gasped in shock as the singer fell, but thankfully, she caught herself on the stage's edge and climbed back up. Despite the scare, Rodrigo assured her fans she was okay. "Oh my God! That was fun, I'm OK! " she said, surprised by the unexpected fall. She then carried on with her performance, showing her professionalism. Fans reacted on social media, expressing concern for Rodrigo's well-being. Some also questioned why the stage crew didn't close the hatch. The mishap occurred during Rodrigo's fourth and final Melbourne show. She is now set to move on to Sydney for more concerts at the Qudos Bank Arena. The Guts tour supports Rodrigo's latest album of the same name, which has earned her six Grammy nominations. During her Melbourne shows, Rodrigo also surprised fans by performing "All I Want," a song from her role in "High School Musical: The Musical: The Series. "
