Kelsea Ballerini can now be added to the list of artists to fall victim to unruly concertgoers flinging objects on stage during a show, following a string of similar recent incidents.
The country artist was struck in the face by an object that was thrown at her on Wednesday during a performance in Idaho, as seen in social media videos.n he footage posted by concertgoers on Wednesday evening showed Ballerini flinching mid-song when the flung object hit her in the head. She subsequently paused the song and stepped offstage.
“I’m fine,” the singer said Thursday in a statement posted to her Instagram Stories, adding, “someone threw a bracelet, hit me in the eye, and it more so just scared me than hurt me.” Ballerini continued, “We all have triggers and layers of fears way deeper than what is shown, and that’s why I walked offstage to calm down and make sure myself, band and crew, and the crowd all felt safe to continue.”
Sorry, I’ve not heard of this person before.
I thought there was chicken wire in front of the stage for all country concerts. That way in the movies.
I’ve been in many Texas Honky Tonks that had chicken wire around stage.
Total crazy leftist. Treats her core audience as rubes.
Notice. No where in the article did it say WHAT CITY in Idaho. . This of course happened in ? Boise. The hub of liberalism here in Idaho. No wonder they forgot to mention the city. They did not want to mention it happened in a LIBERAL city. New York City = liberal = violence. LA = liberal = violenc...

We throw water bottles, rocks whatever. It’s actually a ritual that shows we enjoy the performances.

I’ve been to a bunch of concerts in my life and almost every one was a happy event. That said I don’t go to them anymore. Last one was in 2017.
Nothing like a rock between the eyes to say thanks for singing.
Bad rock with a fiddle. And now with rainbow flags.
When I see that movie, I always wonder who can break a longneck by throwing it into chicken wire. Doubt there’s a pitcher in MLB who could.
That is the reason many venues don’t allow bottles or cans.
Blues Brothers....
Another brilliant person here in sync with me.
Not the case at a Who concert that I went to. B-52s were on stage, and not being well-received (after Joan Jett). Pretty packed, down front, but if someone yelled they had something to throw, a hole opened up so they’d have room to wind up. Lots of shoes got thrown. Oranges, whatever...
Wear a hard hat and safety glasses.
So the idiot adds to her net worth just to throw a cell phone because she’s pissed she supports transgenders? Doesn’t make any sense. But definitely wasn’t a lefty because they support transgenders. Isn’t a trump supporter because trump supporters transgenders. Must be a mushy middle person.
