    Lady Gaga paused a concert after her dancer fell off stage

    The Abracadabra hitmaker was performing at the Accor Stadium in Sydney, Australia, on Saturday (13.12.25) night when Michael Dameski slipped on the rain-soaked surface, falling off the edge, but after she checked on him and confirmed he was "ok", the performance continued.


    In footage from the concert circulating online, Gaga could be seen signalling for the music to stop while she checked on Michael.

    She said: "Just one second. We just had an accident on the stage. Everything's ok. Just, everyone wait a second, please."

    The 39-year-old star also took the time to ensure the dancers' footwear was all suitable for the wet conditions.

    One fan account posted on X "The show stopped for a second time during Garden of Eden after a dancer fell off stage and was injured because of the persistent rain. "If you could just give us five minutes, I just wanna get some proper grooves on the shoes of the dancers," Lady Gaga said.(sic)"

    Michael later took to his Instagram Story to let fans know he was OK and "was able to finish the last show of the year".

    Earlier this month, prankster Johnson Wen, aka PyjamaMan, was kicked out of Gaga's show at Brisbane's Suncorp Stadium, just weeks after he was sentenced to nine days in prison for rushing at Ariana Grande during a Wicked: For Good premiere in Singapore.

    In footage stage by other concert goers from the Mayhem Ball gig, the Australian native was seen talking to security before being led out of the venue.

    The show hadn't started when he was forced to leave, and it's unclear what his plans were.

    On his own Instagram Story, Wen wrote: "Got kicked out of Lady Gaga concert!

    "The show doesn't start till 8pm! The early fans were booing me."

    In the past, he has made his name as a stage-crasher, having interrupted shows by the likes of The Weeknd, The Chainsmokers and Katy Perry.

    Last month, he jumped a security barrier, rushed over to Grande and put his arm around the singer-and-actress before security and her co-star Cynthia Erivo intervened.

    He pleaded guilty to one charge of being a public nuisance and received a nine day jail sentence.

    According to the Singapore's English-language newspaper the Straits Times, he was put on a plane out of the South East Asian country on November 23, and has been barred from re-entering the nation.

    Prosecutors had described PyjamaMan as a "serial intruder", and a judge determined he had planned the incident in order to go viral on social media.
