Post Malone’s cup may have runneth over — straight off the stage.
During his Big Ass Stadium Tour stop in Glendale, Arizona, the singer was mid-performance of his hit Pour Me a Drink when things got unexpectedly slippery. He knelt down to clink cups with a fan in the front row — a sweet, very Posty gesture — and just as their cups were about to meet, the stage had other plans.
A chunk of the platform gave way beneath him and Post quite literally dropped out of frame, still holding his red solo cup. One second he was there, charming the crowd with his country-pop swagger and the next — poof — he was gone.
Most performers would’ve taken a moment, maybe even needed a breather. But not Post Malone. He popped right back up, smiling, unbothered and still singing, before raising his cup once again and actually finishing the cheers. The crowd, perdictably, went wild.
The moment was captured on TikTok and quickly went viral, thanks in part to the fan who posted it with the caption: ‘I didn’t mean to almost break your back’ — a playful twist on the song lyric ‘I’ve been breakin’ my back.’
If this feels familiar, that’s because it kind of is. Back in 2022, Malone took a far more serious tumble during a show in St. Louis when he fell through an open trapdoor, resulting in bruised ribs and a hospital visit. This time around, thankfully, no injuries, just a reminder that even gravity can’t bring Posty down.
The Glendale show was one of the biggest dates on his tour supporting F-1 Trillion, the genre-hopping album that’s taken him deep into country territory. With back-to-back chart-toppers like Pour Me a Drink (feat. Blake Shelton) and I Had Some Help (feat. Morgan Wallen), Post Malone’s country crossover era is in full swing.
He’ll wrap up the North American leg before heading to Europe and Asia later this summer. Until then, we raise our cups to the man who proved you can fall mid-song, stay on key and still deliver a flawless finish.
