At a recent electrifying concert, Olivia Rodrigo left fans both stunned and concerned as it appeared she accidentally ripped out a chunk of her hair on stage.
This incident came on the heels of a jaw-dropping moment when the “Good 4 U” singer took a surprising tumble through a trap door while sprinting across the stage, shocking the audience of thousands.
During her "GUTS World Tour" performance in Melbourne, Australia, on Monday, October 14, 21-year-old Olivia Rodrigo seemed to accidentally rip out a chunk of her hair, adding an unexpected twist to the show.
Olivia Rodrigo Loses Chuck Of Hair During Concert
In a TikTok video shared by an audience member, Rodrigo is spotted spinning with her microphone raised. As she lowers the mic and starts to whip her head around, it’s clear that a chunk of her hair gets caught and is left dangling from her hand.
Let’s hope it was just one of her hair extensions and not her real hair, as we can only imagine the pain that would have caused--and fans agree.
"I hope that was a hair extension that she ripped out," the TikTok user wrote over the video.
"It honestly slid out like a smooth I tip hair extension, I only know cause it has happened to me," another said.
Olivia Rodrigo And Melbourne Were Not Friends
The Melbourne concert was the same concert where she disappeared from view after tumbling into a trap door in the stage floor.
Caught up in the excitement of the moment, Rodrigo ran to the other side of the stage while engaging with fans, but her enthusiasm led to the unexpected mishap. “Oh my God! That was fun,” she quipped as she emerged from the lowered platform. “I'm okay!”
"WHAT IS HAPPENING IN MELB N4 I CAN'T," one of her fans expressed.
"WHAT WAS GOING ON IN MELBOURNE," another wrote.
"Our girl went through it in Melbourne," a third said.
Olivia Rodrigo Raises Her Voice For Reproductive Rights At Concerts
At a recent St. Louis concert, Rodrigo sparked quite a debate with her parting gifts, handed out in collaboration with the Missouri Abortion Fund. The items—condoms and Plan B—were met with mixed reactions from fans, with some appreciating the gesture and others criticizing the choice.
This move followed Missouri's enforcement of its strict abortion ban after the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. By teaming up with the Missouri Abortion Fund, Rodrigo is making her stance on reproductive rights clear, using her platform to spread awareness.
She's also furthering the cause through her own non-profit, Fund 4 Good.
Olivia Rodrigo Slams Supreme Court
The former Disney Channel star recently voiced her strong opposition to the U.S. Supreme Court justices following their decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. Rodrigo has been an outspoken advocate for reproductive rights, using her platform to speak out against the ruling and its impact on access to abortion.
“I’m devastated and terrified. So many women and so many girls are going to die because of this,” she told the crowd at one of her concerts, per The Guardian. “I wanted to dedicate this next song to the five members of the Supreme Court who have showed us that at the end of the day, they truly don’t give a s— about freedom.”
Olivia Rodrigo Launches Non-Profit Organization
Earlier this year, Rodrigo announced the launch of her non-profit before a concert in California. “Before I pop onstage, I wanted to come on here and talk about something I’m really excited about," she said, per Billboard. "The Fund 4 Good works to support all women, girls, and people seeking reproductive health freedom.”
The "Bad Idea Right?" singer added, “The fund will directly support community-based nonprofits that champion things like girls’ education, support reproductive rights and prevent gender-based violence."
Rodrigo pledged to have a Fund 4 Good table at every stop of her "GUTS World Tour" to support her fans and further her advocacy. In addition, a portion of the proceeds from all ticket sales will be donated to the Fund 4 Good, reinforcing her commitment to reproductive rights and other social causes.
This initiative not only raises awareness but also ensures that her fans have access to valuable resources.
