"People get excited, stuff happens but it felt like the person aimed at me and wanted to hit me."

International pop superstar Tove Lo took to her socials today to reveal that she had an ice cube thrown at her face while on stage at Listen Out in Perth.

"I'm in Australia playing a bunch of festivals and headline shows... I was playing a festival in Perth, it was really fun the crowd was great a lot of energy. We were playing at sunset, so it got dark during my set..." the video opens.

"In the middle of the set someone threw an ice cube at me and it hit me (gestures to the side of her face). It could have hit my eye. People get excited, stuff happens but it felt like the person aimed at me and wanted to hit me. Already when you're performing there are a lot of feelings and there's already so much going on inside you. When I felt that I had this moment of absolute rage..."

"I was looking down into the crowd where I felt it coming from and this group of guys were pointing at this other guy saying that he did it. I just stared at him and kept going. I couldn't let it go for the rest of the song and I put it out of my brain and kept the show going.

"If i say something more is he going to throw more ice at me or will more people start throwing shit at me. What's the move there? To ignore it and keep going or stop the music..."

Listen Out is currently touring around the country, opening last weekend with dates in Melbourne and Perth. This week it heads to Sydney and Brisbane and features a stacked line up including Central Cee, JID, AJ Tracey, Disclosure, Trippie Redd and many more.
