What happened to Riley Green

Green recently had a performance scheduled at the Margaret Court Arena in Melbourne, Australia. During one of his sets, someone from the crowd threw their phone on stage, which was caught on another fan’s camera as they were filming the singer.

In the video, the singer was seen pausing for a few minutes after he was hit with the phone. He then set his guitar down on stage and walked towards the crowd. He asked to get the lights going and then pointed out the person who threw their phone at him. He later also asked security to escort the person out of the venue, before powering through with the rest of the set.

Former AFL champion and radio host Nick Riewoldt was also in attendance at the show, and in a later interview revealed that he helped security in escorting the person out. While talking to his co-hosts on ‘Triple M’s Mick in the Morning’ radio show, he revealed that he was near the person who threw the phone, and after the incident, he immediately jumped in.Get the latest entertainment updates from the Times of India, along with the latest Hindi movies, upcoming Hindi movies in 2026 , and Telugu movies.”
