Kesha Says She Was Unknowingly Given A Real Butcher Knife For Lollapalooza Set
HuffPost
The pop star was performing at the Chicago music festival when the mix-up occurred.
Kesha delivered a cutting-edge performance at Lollapalooza … quite literally.
After hitting the stage at the music festival in Chicago on Thursday, the pop star, 37, revealed the prop blade she used during her performance was actually swapped for a real butcher knife by the stage crew without her knowledge.
“Sooooo apparently the prop knife went missing and they replaced it with a real butcher knife stolen from the kitchen,” Kesha claimed in a post on X, formerly Twitter, just hours after her Aug. 1 performance. “I didn’t know. Till now. So watch that again.”
The “Die Young” crooner, who was seen running around the stage with the knife in hand while performing her tune “Backstabber,” did not reveal who allegedly switched out the prop blade.
Kesha managed to dodge a catastrophic disaster considering her set featured a moment when she paraded the sharp blade around stage while pretending to stab her dancers.
