Country music star Kacey Musgraves postpones show after breaking a rib: ‘This s‑‑t is no joke'
Kacey Musgraves has shared some startling news.
The 36-year-old country music star took to Instagram on Friday, June 20, to announce that she had to postpone a show scheduled for Sunday in Nashville because she broke a rib in Mexico earlier this week.
'Sooo, I'm in Mexico with a f‑‑king broken rib,' Musgraves wrote on her Instagram Stories alongside an X-ray image of her torso. 'Wednesday night it was raining and I was running to grab some towels and had an extremely hard fall on some very slick tile I didn't see.'

'Thankful I didn't smack my head but I landed very hard on my back left ribcage and broke rib number six,' she continued. 'This s‑‑t is no joke. I'm in a lot of pain and doing ANYTHING is extremely difficult. But I'm managing and being well taken care of.'

The 'Follow Your Arrow' hitmaker then apologized for having to reschedule her concert at Sing for Science's 'The Magic of Mushrooms' event at the Ryman Auditorium on Sunday night.
'There is no physical way I can get on a plane and fly back to Nashville for the Sing for Science event,' Musgraves said. 'I am extremely bummed to have to reschedule as I have been looking forward to this for months.'

The Post has reached out to the country singer's rep for comment.
Musgraves' shocking injury this week comes months after the 'Deeper Well' artist made headlines for her 'pissed' reaction at the 2025 Grammy Awards in February.
Although 'Deeper Well' was nominated for Best Country Album, Musgraves lost out to Beyoncé's 'Cowboy Carter' record.

'Is Kacey Musgraves mad that Beyoncé won?' one viewer wrote after the 'Slow Burn' singer's reaction went viral. 'She sure looks it.'
'Kacey musgraves is looking pissed after losing to beyonce,' another person tweeted.
However, Musgraves later broke her silence to shut down the rumors that she was mad about losing the Grammy Award for Best Country Album to the 43-year-old superstar.
'It's a sensationalistic false narrative meant to pit two talented female artists against each other,' her rep responded in a statement. 'There was simply no scowl or expression made.'
