Rapper Post Malone bruised his ribs when he fell through a hole on stage during a performance in St. Louis over the weekend, his manager said.
Post Malone, 27, whose real name is Austin Richard Post, was performing at the Enterprise Center downtown on Saturday when he fell mid-song.
Video on social media appeared to show him fall into a trap door used to move equipment on and off stage and roll over grimacing in pain and grabbing his ribs.
His manager, Dre London, shared a post Sunday revealing Post Malone bruised his ribs in the fall and is on the mend.
“We did X-rays @ hospital after the show & they declared he had bruised his ribs!” London said, thankful he didn’t break any ribs.
He praised Post Malone for continuing the song and finishing the show, even after the accident.
