Canadian pop siren Grimes underwent a hair-raising experience at last night's gig at the Dublin Olympia, being repeatedly electrocuted by a malfunctioning pedal. Ever the professional though, the Vancouver born electro pop auteur carried on regardless.

“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” the artists tweeted after the show, followed by this Simpsons themed Instagram post:

 

appreciating every1 who tweeted this at me today haha. Thank u thank u Dublin for being sweet and kind.
