Country singer Luke Bryan recently fell onstage during a performance at the Coast City Country Festival in Vancouver, Canada. Fortunately, he avoided serious injury due to the extra padding on his body, joking that he has “a lot of meat back there.” Bryan slipped on a fan’s phone and landed on his back, but quickly recovered and laughed off the incident, holding up the phone for the audience to see and jokingly mentioning his lawyer. Despite the fall being captured on video and going viral, he remained in good spirits and even asked if anyone had filmed it for Snapchat.
During the episode of American Idol following his fall, host Ryan Seacrest jokingly asked Bryan if he was okay and if he had sustained any injuries. Bryan initially pretended not to know what Seacrest was referring to, but later admitted that the mishap was just “good old-fashioned foolishness.” He reassured fans that he was alright and even called it the “best moment of the night.” Bryan’s Canadian leg of the Mind of a Country Boy Tour is set to end soon, with the next leg starting in June in Jacksonville, Florida. In addition to his music career, Bryan has been a judge on American Idol since 2018.
Katy Perry, another judge on American Idol, announced that this season would likely be her last, but Bryan was not surprised by her decision. He mentioned that he had heard some rumors about Perry potentially leaving the show and that it wasn’t a huge shock for him. While Perry suggested Jelly Roll as a possible replacement, Bryan declined to disclose his own preferences for a new judge. He simply mentioned that anybody would be great in the role. American Idol airs on ABC on Sundays and Mondays at 8 p.m. ET, giving fans the opportunity to see Bryan in his judging role on the show.
Despite the slip and fall during his concert, Luke Bryan has maintained a positive attitude and sense of humor about the incident.
