Less than a month after Olivia Rodrigo had a similar fall in the same city Coldplay ‘s Chris Martin had a little tumble onstage while performing in Melbourne, Australia over the weekend. READ MORE: Coldplay exclusive interview: “When things appear overwhelmingly positive, that’s often because it’s what the singer needs most” During a show at the Marvel Stadium in Melbourne for the band’s ‘Music Of The Spheres’ tour, the frontman was addressing the crowd after a performance of ‘Everglow’ when he fell through a trap door as he was walking backwards. Martin’s fall was somewhat cushioned by a crew member who stuck his hands out through the hole to catch Martin.
Martin said after getting back on his feet: “Thank you for catching me, so much. Holy shit, that was nearly a YouTube moment.” See footage of the fall below.

While performing at the Rod Laver Arena last month for the ‘Guts’ world tour, Rodrigo fell through a hole in the stage before quickly popping back up and quipping: “Oh my God, that was fun! I’m okay! Wow. Sometimes, there’s just a hole in the stage.
That’s alright! Alright, where was I?” Next year, Coldplay will take their ‘Music Of The Spheres�.
