She took to her Instagram Story soon after to apologize to the crowd as well as the people who had tickets for the next show she was going to do that night that was canceled.  On Tuesday, McDonald went to TikTok to share footage of the incident that reveals the scary moment when she suddenly lost her balance on stage and fell backward, landing directly on the back of her head.
