Grimes apologizes for getting electrocuted on stage, like a true Canadian
Musician Grimes was electrocuted several times on stage during a performance in Dublin March 15 -- which is absolutely terrifying.
Even more amazing: In a now-deleted tweet, Grimes apologized to the crowd for being electrocuted. Clearly, she is too pure for this world -- with the possible exception of her native Canada and meadows full of bunnies.

Grimes proceeded to apologize the Olympia Theater for believing initially that it might be at fault. She also thanked her Irish fans for singing "Happy Birthday" ahead of her birthday, which also happens to be St. Patrick's Day.
Here's some fan footage from the evening that doesn't feature any electrocution -- which is certainly nice to see.
