Country music star slips, falls during performance, jokingly threatens to sue fan

Luke Bryan slipped and fell during a recent concert, then jokingly threatened to sue a fan.

Bryan was playing Vancouver’s Coast City Country Festival on Saturday when he started hyping up the crowd, then he slipped and fell on stage.

The singer made the best of the moment, though.

He thought he slipped on a fan’s phone, which was on the stage. He held up the phone and asked, “Hold up! Did anybody get that?” Bryan tossed the phone back to the culprit.

“It’s OK,” he joked with the fan. “My lawyer will be calling.”

While Bryan thought he had slipped on the phone, according to TMZ, Bryan fell of his own accord, simply landing on the phone.

Bryan grabbed another fan’s phone, so he could watch a replay of his fall.

“Oh, you’re Snapchatting, you can’t Snapchat this s—,” he said, before showing the crowd the footage, which was conveniently blown up on the big screen behind the stage.

He then provided narration.

“There I am, there we go, jumping, jumping, hyping the crowd .. there he is!” the American Idol judge said.

“Hey, I need some viral. This is viral, alright?” Bryan told the crowd. “Hashtag ‘Love You, Miss You, Mean It,’ ” he added, referencing his latest single.
