QUEEN of Bacchanal, Destra Garcia is said to be in need of surgery after she fell off a stage in Bermuda and broke her ankle late Wednesday.
The Trinidad & Tobago Soca star was performing at the Cup Match Summer Splash when the incident occurred. According to an eyewitness, the 38-year-old performer slipped between the stage and a speaker during the concert.
While she had earlier placed a foot on a speaker during the show, she fell attempting to do so again, bringing her performance to a halt, the witness said.
Video that captured the incident shows Destra talking to the audience when she suddenly falls off the stage. A group of people rushed to assist the singer who was removed via a stretcher.
Her manager, Brian Morris confirmed that she broke her ankle and is in need of surgery. He said her ankle is in a temporary cast, and she is in pain.
Destra was scheduled to be in Guyana later this month as part of the Jamzone “Bacchanal Wednesday” soca night.
