Grimes gets electric shock from her earpieces mid-performance

Fortunately, she is fine.

Faced with the already difficult task of recreating an album as textured as Art Angels live, the last thing you need is a mild electrocution.

Grimes was mid-way through the chorus of ‘Butterfly’ in Dublin this week, when she was electrocuted through her earpieces - presumably a pretty horrible sensation even if it was only a mild shock.

"Dublin! 1 mil apologies that my pedal failed and I was electrocuted, but there r tears in my eyes that y'all were so so wonderful,” she wrote in a since deleted tweet.

Footage of the moment ended up on Instagram:

One concert-goer wrote: ”Her ear pieces kept fucking up and electrocuting her, she was so annoyed about it all and her pedal didn't work."

She took the accident in her stride however, assuring fans she was “fine”.
