Currently, it has become a trend to throw objects at singers during their shows or to climb on stage during the performance. Now Bryan Adams got it on his “So Happy It Hurts” tour.
Fan storms the stage
During Bryan Adams’ performance in Salt Lake City, a fan jumped onto the stage and interrupted the Canadian rocker’s performance. Adams was just intoning his hit “Summer of ’69” when a young man in a white shirt climbed onto the stage and snatched the singer’s microphone. As seen in a video filmed by fans, Adams then walked away and let the man sing the first few lines of the song. The security forces were quickly on the spot and removed the crasher from the stage. Adams then picked up where the man left off and finished the song.
Videos of the incident later went viral on social media – with fans praising Adam’s handling of the crash. The singer also commented on the event on Twitter with “Stage crash NOT recommended” and also explained on Instagram that he sees it more with humor: “Sometimes you just have to laugh…”.
In addition to fans getting on stage during the performance of their idol, there are also more and more incidents in which the artists are thrown with objects. During a Bebe Rexha concert, a fan threw his cell phone towards the stage and hit the singer in the eye. Artists such as Taylor Swift, Harry Styles, Lil Nas X or Pink have already fallen victim to the “trend”. The objects vary from water bottles to sex toys or one’s own mother’s ashes.
