Luke Bryan falls on stage during concert: watch ‘viral’ moment

Luke Bryan is going viral for his fall on stage.

The “Country Girl” singer tripped over the cell phone of a fan who came to the stage floor of the Coast City Country Festival in Vancouver on Saturday.

Bryan, 47, laughed off his fall after landing on his back, videos shared on social media.

The country singer held up the cell phone responsible for the accident and asked the crowd, “Did anyone get that?”

Bryan tossed the phone back to the alleged owner and told him, “It’s okay,” before jokingly adding, “My lawyer will call.”

The country singer then grabbed the phone of another fan from the audience who recorded his fall and presented the video on the screens.

“There I am, there we go, jumping, jumping, riling up the crowd… There it is,” he said, replaying the moment in real time.

“Hey, I need something viral. This is viral,” Bryan joked, before telling the fan to caption the video with a hashtag from his song “Love You, Miss You, Mean It.”

Bryan, who is in the middle of his Mind of a Country Boy Tour, told the Nashville Tennessean earlier this month that “turning heads to let people know about your artistry” is much harder these days.

The struggle to launch and maintain your career is why he has hired other young country artists to tour for him.

“I nurture where younger artists are in the infancy of their careers and help them deal with the expectation of seeing a single rise up the charts,” said Bryan, reminiscing about his time as an opener for Brooks & Dunn, Kenny Chesney and Tim McGraw almost twenty years ago.

“Paying it forward is pretty special,” said the “Crash My Party” singer. “It’s important to dive in and prepare artists to hopefully reflect the kind of success I’ve had as stylish and smart artists with integrity.”

Bryan added that he “wasn’t a naturally gifted artist” and had to be open to flexibility.

“That focus has allowed me to avoid falling short of inventing and reinventing (my art and brand). I still feel as inspired and relevant to everything happening at all levels of the music industry as I ever have,” he said.
