Kesha faced an unexpected and potentially dangerous situation during her performance at Lollapalooza. While delivering a high-energy set at the renowned music festival, the singer, known for her hit ‘TiK ToK’, encountered a major surprise when she discovered that the prop knife she used during her rendition of ’Backstabber’ was allegedly replaced with a real butcher knife.
This revelation came after the show when Kesha took to social media to express her shock. In a post on X, Kesha revealed that the prop knife she had used was missing and was replaced with a real butcher knife taken from a kitchen.
She shared that she was unaware of the switch until after the performance, indicating that she performed with what she thought was a harmless prop while actually handling a real knife.
