Post Malone Falls Off Stage at His Concert
Grammy-nominated singer Post Malone fell from the stage mid-concert while trying to toast with a fan during his performance of 'Pour Me a Drink.' The 29-year-old artist quickly recovered, got back onstage, and finished his five remaining songs. During Post Malone's Saturday night concert at Arizona's State Farm Stadium in Glendale, the 'Circles' crooner tumbled off stage. He was attempting to toast a front-row fan at the time. The singer was holding a drink while singing 'Pour Me a Drink.' He came towards the end of the stage just before the fall. However, a piece of the stage gave way beneath him as he knelt down with his red Solo cup, leading to his sudden fall. Reports state that the 18-time Grammy-nominated artist recovered from the fall quickly and continued his setlist as scheduled (via Page Six). Fan footage of the fall went viral on TikTok, marking another stage mishap for the singer, who previously fell through a trapdoor in 2022. Social media users also emphasized the fault of the stage production, which made him tumble. One X (formerly Twitter) user complained, 'Well, they should have built that stage better because wth? That's just careless.' Others discussed if artists should drink on stage, as it might be deemed 'unprofessional.' Previously, the 'Rockstar' hitmaker experienced a similar fall in September 2022 while performing at his concert in St. Louis. Clips from attendees revealed the rapper was performing 'Circles' when he fell on the stage at Enterprise Center. Apparently, the singer stepped into an uncovered hole intended for lowering his guitar, which resulted in his fall. The videos unveiled the hard fall, showing the singer hitting the ground violently. His face and body slammed into the floor. Medics who were present at the scene rushed to the artist's aid. It seemed like he was unable to get up (via Page Six). However, the singer did not sustain any major injuries despite the hard fall. He took a small break from his performance to compose himself before returning to the stage. The singer had thanked his fans for being patient. He told the audience, 'I want to thank you for your patience, and I'm sorry there was a big-a** hole in the stage.'

Post Malone Ties His Own Radio Record — And He's About To Beat It
Post Malone's 'I Had Some Help' ties 'Circles' with 60 weeks on Billboard's Radio Songs chart, ... More making them his longest-running hits as the country duet continues.

(Photo by Christopher Polk/Variety via Getty Images) Variety via Getty Images Post Malone first became a musical superstar thanks to the songs he released that fit within the hip-hop genre. He found incredible commercial success right out of the gate, but when it comes to his performance on Billboard's main radio ranking, his longest-running smashes can't be classified as rap. Instead, his biggest pop tune and his first proper country hit are now tied for a special place within his discography. Malone's collaboration with Morgan Wallen, "I Had Some Help," as well as his solo tune "Circles" have both spent 60 weeks on the Billboard's Radio Songs chart. That tally ranks the singles that rack up the largest number of total audience impressions across all airplay formats in the U.S. It's rare for any track to live on the list for a year or longer, and now Malone has scored a pair of those massive wins. "Circles" debuted on the Radio Songs chart in September 2019 and reached No. 1 in December. It spent 11 weeks ruling and still stands as Malone's longest-running champion by far. "I Had Some Help" only held on to the top spot for about half as long — five frames. It launched on the competitive ranking in May 2024 and has not disappeared since. While "I Had Some Help" is currently matched with "Circles," the two likely won't be tied for very long. Malone's first country win rises to No. 20 on the 50-spot roster, so there's a good chance it will continue to live on this list for several more months. In fact, by the time it's done, "I Had Some Help" may rank as one of the longest-charting tracks in the history of the Radio Songs tally. "I Had Some Help" is Malone's only current hit on the Radio Songs chart this week, but Wallen fills 10% of all the available spots. Amazingly, "I Had Some Help" is his highest-ranking win, even after more than a year on the roster, as it sits just above both "Just in Case" and "I'm the Problem," which give him a winning streak as they occupy Nos. 21 and 22, respectively. Further down on the ranking, "Love Somebody" dips to No. 44, while "What I Want," Wallen's collaboration with Tate McRae, lifts to a new peak of No. 46 in its second frame on the tally.

‘Right place, right time': Post Malone pays for others' drinks at Boston bar
It's somewhat serendipitous that one of Heleena Norvette's favorite Post Malone songs is 'Pour Me a Drink' because the global superstar paid for hers during her birthday festivities last weekend. Norvette was celebrating her 41st birthday when Post Malone covered her tab — and everyone else's — while the 'Circles' singer grabbed a drink at Blind Duck at Raffles Hotel in Boston on Friday night, May 30. 'We couldn't believe that a star like him of his magnitude was in just by himself really at the Raffles,' the finance manager and socialite told MassLive. 'We just happened to be at the right place at the right time.' Read more: Ipswich buzzes after impromptu visit and performance from Grammy winner When Norvette got into Blind Duck at around 5:30 that night, she noticed Malone right away. The 'Sunflower' singer 'stood out like a sore thumb' because of his signature tattoos and cowboy hat. 'He was with one other guy. It wasn't like he had a ton of security or entourage with him or anything,' Norvette said. She added that Malone was 'willing to take photos with people,' but she and her friend decided to play it cool and tried not 'to be a groupie' despite Norvette being a big fan. Malone's kindness was exemplified when Norvette got her bill, which the 'Better Now' singer had already paid for. He did the same for the other 10 people who were in the bar during the short span of time that Malone was there. 'You hear some celebs are real a**holes and then some are amazing and you just never know,' Norvete said. 'But he was being so nice and cordial to everybody and it showed when he cleared the bill for everyone.' Norvette added how Malone paying for her birthday drink was 'such a great start to my new year.'

The tour is in support of Malone's latest and first country album, 'F-1 Trillion,' which was released in August 2014.

Rohit Sharma Has A Special Song For Mumbai Indians' New Recruit
Rohit Sharma was in relaxed mood ahead of Mumbai Indians' IPL 2025 Eliminator against Gujarat Titans as he came up with a special song for Jonny Bairstow. In a video going viral on social media, Rohit was seen singing along to a catchy tune that left Bairstow in splits. Bairstow joined MI as a temporary replacement for Ryan Rickelton who left the squad due to national team duties. In the video, Rohit was singing 'Circles' by Post Malone but decided to add a twist to it that involved Bairstow's name. The England international was seen laughing at the entire incident as the MI camp looked in jovial mood. Mumbai Indians have been impacted by the loss of foreign players. Ryan Rickelton had done a fine job for them at the top of the order alongside Rohit Sharma but the South African has now reported for national duty. The same goes for English batter Will Jacks. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Mumbai Indians (@mumbaiindians) Out of favour England batter Jonny Bairstow is one of the replacement players for Mumbai Indians alongside Richard Gleeson and Charith Asalanka. Bairstow could open alongside Rohit Sharma at the top of the order. The Englishman would surely be expecting to start the game, having agreed to join the franchise in the middle of the domestic season back home. The quiet run of Titak Varma is another concern facing the team. Suryakumar Yadav has been doing the heavy lifting in the batting department with a record 640 runs in a season. In case he fails, Mumbai Indians will have a real task at hand. Batting first, the pace at which Mumbai batters score has also been questioned and that is another area Hardik will have to focus on. However, their strong bowling attack always poses a bigger threat to the opposition. "Batting, we'll figure out what is the right template on right tracks and if we bat first, what is the pace we want to bat. (There are a) couple of things which we need to identify, but I don't think there is panic," Hardik had said after the loss to Punjab Kings in their final league game.

Gnosis Launches Circles 2.0: A Trust-Based Digital Currency Where Users Issue Their Own Tokens Over Time
BERLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Gnosis, the architects of open applications and infrastructure for the new economy, today announced the launch of Circles 2.0, a radically new kind of personalised currency that anyone can create and use without needing a bank or government. Instead of relying on a centralised institution to print and set the value of money, each person issues their own Circles currency, which they can send and receive from people they trust. Circles 2.0 is delivered by the newly launched Metri app, the consumer-friendly, self-custodial wallet operating within the Gnosis ecosystem. In a global economy that is ever more uncertain, Circles offers users the ability to take control of their wealth and create vibrant local economies based on trust, community and fairness. Circles' predictable and equitable money supply protocol builds on the Gnosis vision of a decentralized payment infrastructure to create a new global currency that empowers users and is designed to avoid the systemic advantage often seen in early token distribution models—creating a fairer starting point for all participants. Martin Köppelmann, Co-Founder of Gnosis said, 'The goal of Circles is to introduce a complementary money system that doesn't put any participant or institution at an undue and systematic advantage over another while remaining attractive as a means of exchange and storage of value. We believe that by coupling the momentum of financial technology, together with products that propel OpenFi such as Gnosis Pay and CoW swap, we can provide enough immediate utility to solve the issues faced by new money systems and facilitate the next evolution in a completely decentralized financial system.' An Equitable Currency For Trusted Exchange In terms of token issuance, every account holder will mint 1 CRC per hour or 24 per day for as long as they maintain minimum activity levels on the platform. Each user's CRC is a unique token. Real-life trust—whether with friends, family or community members—is replicated through trusted connections within the system. When a user trusts someone else, they agree to accept their unique CRC. If the user doesn't know someone directly, but they have trusted connections in common, they can still send CRC to the third user by leveraging common connections as intermediaries, creating an active web–or circle–of trust. CRC can also be earned by inviting new users, by creating trusted connections, or by being bought in exchange for bridged stablecoins such USDCe, GBPe, and EURe. As a sign of early demand and expectation, there are 100,000 users on the waitlist for Circles, which has a value initially anticipated to fluctuate between $0.01 and $0.05. Users can also back their Circles with assets like Bitcoin, Ethereum or sDAI to establish price and make their Circles tradeable. Users will be able to spend the Circles they have created for real-life goods and services via Circles Marketplace, where trusted vendors will be accepting CRC, which is expected to go live some weeks after the launch. Key features of Circles 2.0: Every account holder has the right to mint their own individual Circles (CRC) at a rate of 1 CRC per hour. All CRC balances are reduced in nominal value at a rate of 7% per year to encourage spending and discourage hoarding. Groups can now be created and joined based on shared factors including but not limited to location, interests, events and enterprise affiliation. CRC is designed to be used as a form of currency between trusted connections, as opposed to a digital asset that is accrued or speculated upon. The launch of Circles 2.0 seeks to provide an equitable solution to the concerns about centralised control of money issuance and build on the innovation of cryptocurrency while avoiding the problem of undue and systemic advantage where early adopters benefit most. The use of Metri makes it easy for anyone to enter the world of decentralized money, with a focus on personal currencies, stablecoins and accessibility, and to spend their assets using a debit card. Metri is a user-friendly platform that integrates with cutting-edge OpenFi solutions, including the Circles Protocol, Gnosis Pay, and CoW Swap, and offers a comprehensive suite of tools for users.
