Olivia Rodrigo didn't break a glass, but she sure did trip and fall.
The pop star, who is currently on her Guts World Tour, took a tumble onstage while performing in Melbourne, Australia, on Monday. The concert was the last of four shows at Rod Laver Arena.
As seen in footage shared on social media, the "Obsessed" singer was running back and forth when she fell through a trapdoor on the stage. Without missing a beat, Rodrigo reassured concertgoers she wasn't hurt. "Oh my God, that was fun," she jokingly told the crowd. "I'm OK."
She added: "Sometimes there's just a hole in the stage. That's all right."
After getting back up, Rodrigo resumed energizing fans at the show. "Where was I?" she said. "How are we doing tonight, Melbourne?"

USA TODAY reached out to representatives for Rodrigo, Live Nation and Rod Laver Arena for comment.
The Grammy-winning singer poked fun at the incident in a follow-up TikTok video that played her fall on a loop. "#subtleforeshadowing," she captioned the post, later adding in a comment, "I am ok hahaha❤️"
Bad 4 U?Olivia Rodrigo sleeps 13 hours a night on Guts World Tour. Is that too much?
The Guts World Tour kicked off with a North American run in February, followed by the tour's European and encore North American legs in the summer.
In a review of her July 20 show in Washington, D.C., USA TODAY music critic Melissa Ruggieri wrote, "For a high-velocity 100 minutes, Rodrigo, her formidable all-female band and troupe of dancers zipped through serrated-guitar revenge anthems and heartsick ballads with spunk, sass and the kind of tautness that comes from months of perfecting."
"Preternaturally poised and already schooled in the art of stagecraft, Rodrigo is not only pop music's reigning young Jedi but the type of performer who is practically mind-melded to her army of devotees," Ruggieri added.
The Guts World Tour is in support of Rodrigo's 2023 sophomore album of the same name. The pop-rock LP topped the Billboard 200 chart upon its release and scored the singer six Grammy Award nominations, including album of the year.
