This week, Drake had an unfortunate experience during the kick-off of his It's All A Blur Tour with 21 Savage in Chicago. During his performance of Ginuwine's song Anxious, a fan threw their phone on stage, and the 36-year-old rapper had to dodge it.
Luckily, a fan posted a video of the incident on TikTok, which showed Drake trying to catch the device before it fell to the ground. He seemed unharmed and proceeded with his performance like nothing had happened.
The incident follows a string of similar events that have happened to other musicians across America. For example, Bebe Rexha was struck in the face by a phone and needed stitches. Singer Kelsea Ballerini also had a fan throw a bracelet at her during her show in Boise, Idaho. Lil Nas X was the most recent victim, having to dodge a flying sex toy while performing at Lollapalooza in Stockholm.
The trend of throwing things onstage has been met with disapproval, with Adele calling out people for their behavior during her Weekends with Adele residency show at Ceasar's Palace Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. She told the crowd, "Have you noticed how people are, like, forgetting show etiquette at the moment, throwing onstage? Have you seen it? I dare you, dare you to throw something at me. Stop throwing things at the artist!"
