Actor-singer Lady Gaga brought her Saturday night concert in Australia to a screeching halt when one of her dancers accidently fell off the stage.
ย
A video of the incident went viral on social media. The dancers were strutting down the stage as Gaga sang “Garden of Eden” at Sydneyโs Accor Stadium. One of the dancers, named Michael Dameski, slid off the end of the stage that was slippery due to heavy rainfall.
ย
The Grammy Award winning singer swiftly sprang into action and immediately halted the concert to tend to Michael, a gesture that won millions of hearts.
ย
In the video posted to X, Gaga can be seen running to her dancerโs aid, repeatedly telling backstage crew to halt production, saying, โStop.โ
ย
After the music fell silent and lights were dimmed, the โAbracadabraโ singer peered below the stage to check on the dancer. As the crowdโs concern grew louder, Gaga tried to pacify her fans.

โWe just had an accident on the stage, everythingโs okay. Just, everyone wait a second, please,โ she told the crowd before turning to Michael. โAre you okay?โ she asked the dancer.
ย
The 39-year-old singer then jumped offstage to check on Michael. The show recommenced shortly as Gaga asked Michael once again, โAre you okay? Okay.โ
ย
After the show, Michael confirmed that he had no injuries, and that he was able to finish out the show.
ย
โHey everyone,โ he wrote over a video of himself dancing to the same song that he fell during on Instagram Stories. โIโm ok. Thank you for checking.โ
