During a performance by Beyoncé on the Cowboy Carter tour in Houston, United States, the singer experienced a scare when she was suspended in the air after a technical failure with one of the show’s props.
Beyoncé was in a red convertible car, used to fly over the stadium and allow fans farther away to see her up close, when the stage vehicle began to tilt unexpectedly and stopped midway, leaving the artist hanging above the crowd.
Despite the situation, Beyoncé remained calm and continued singing the song “16 Carriages” until she stopped the performance with a firm “Stop, stop, stop.” The technical team acted quickly and managed to safely lower her to the ground. After the incident, she returned to the stage and finished the song, being applauded by the audience who showed support and emotion over the event.
Videos of the moment quickly spread on social media, with many fans reporting they were moved and worried about the singer’s safety. Some also highlighted the risk not only for Beyoncé but also for the audience below the suspended equipment.
In a statement, the entertainment company Parkwood, owned by the singer, confirmed the technical problem and reported that no one was injured. The show continued normally after the scare. At the same show, Beyoncé thanked the fans for their support and said: “If I ever fall, I know you’ll catch me.”
