Luke Bryan said he escaped injury during his Saturday night performance in Vancouver by landing on his backside while speaking to TMZ.
The 47-year-old performer looked like he slipped on a banana peel as his legs went up in the air while his torso crashed to the ground during a show on Saturday night.
The hitmaker – who became the subject of light-hearted ridicule from Ryan Seacrest and Katy Perry – took the fall in stride and stated that, as he had ‘a whole lot of meat back there,’ he was not particularly sore.
Bryan then said that, as numerous phones were thrown on stage as he performed, he was not sure ‘whether it was the phone or the slippery stage.’
The Drunk On You singer took the spill during his concert in Vancouver, British Columbia while performing at the Coast City Country Festival, according to a new video.

But instead of trying to pretend it never happened, he laughed it up and even replayed the footage for his audience.
Luke laid on the floor for a second before sitting up and laughing over his clumsiness.
As the audience laughed in relief with him, he held up a fan’s cell phone that had been thrown on the stage at some point.
As he held up the phone, he joked: ‘My lawyers will be calling.’
As he was getting up he said: ‘Hold up! Did anybody get that?’
‘I gotta see it,’ Bryan said from on his knees, before grabbing a fan’s cellphone from the crowd.
‘Oh, you’re Snapchatting, you can’t Snapchat this s—,’ he continued, as he presented the clip to the crowd.
‘Let’s zoom in, zoom in,’ he said, before yelling out a spirited ‘yes’ at the sight of him going down like a cartoon character slipping on a banana peel.
The fall happened between songs as the Crash My Party singer—songwriter was hyping up his next song.
Bryan is on the Canadian leg of his Mind of a Country Boy tour, which concludes its first leg on April 24, in Winnipeg, Manitoba.
Last week the Play it Again crooner admitted he had red eyes because he was suffering from an allergy not because he was smoking marijuana — which some fans had assumed was the reason for his bloodshot eyes.
The allergy is actually from catching fish, as he has an allergy to bass.
‘Just so we know, if I do interviews and I look like I’ve been smoking pot, that’s not true. I’ve been catching bass,’ he said in an interview with Kate Neal for Audacy.

Luke was fortunately uninjured from the incident and had a sense of humor about it
Bryan continued: ‘If I touch a bass, my eyes will get red, my hands will swell if I have to take the hook out. I’ll get in front of it. I’m like, “I know I’m going to fish today,” so I’ll take an Allegra in the morning.’
He’s had the allergy his whole life but was only officially diagnosed with it when he was older.
‘My dad would take me on these fishing trips, and I would be in the back of the boat like wheezing, maybe in need of an EpiPen,’ he recalled.
‘My dad was just like, “Suck it up,” we just thought it was allergies [to] the trees, but it’s actually touching the bass.’
