Paul Kelly Hospitalised After Gravy Incident on Stage
Australian pub rock legend Paul Kelly, aged 68, was hospitalised during the weekend after an unusual incident at the Betoota Heights charity concert. A fan threw a bucket of scalding hot gravy onto the stage while Kelly was performing.
Growing Trend of Musicians Attacked by Objects
This incident highlights a worrying trend in the music industry, where artists increasingly face attacks with random objects during live shows. In recent months, several prominent musicians have been targeted in similar ways.
- Bebe Rexha
- Harry Styles
- Lil Nas X
- Ava Max
- P!nk
All these artists have been subjected to attacks at performances in the past two months, making these events almost a weekly occurrence in the US.
“A ‘fan’ thought they’d show some love by throwing an entire bucket of blistering hot gravy sauce on stage.”
Context and Other Incidents
The report also briefly mentions unrelated local news from Betoota, including a man discovering what a "mayor" truly is and a 30-something southside man experiencing distress in a child-friendly pub. However, these do not relate directly to the main story on Paul Kelly.
