Beyoncé’s Scary Moment at Houston Concert
Beyoncé and her fans experienced a frightening moment during her Saturday Night concert in Houston, Texas. The incident occurred while she was performing her song "16 Laagen".
The Incident
Beyoncé was suspended high above the audience in a red prop held by cables. However, something went wrong, causing her to pause the song and repeatedly shout "stop" to get help. She needed assistance to get down from the prop, which was malfunctioning while she was in the air.
After the Incident
After the show, Beyoncé posted a carousel of photos from her performance on Instagram, including a picture of herself in the prop. She captioned the post "I love you, Houston". Many fans expressed their concern for the singer’s safety in the comments.
The Song and Album
The song "16 Laagen" is part of her eighth studio album, "Cowboy Carter". The album was a big winner at the Grammys earlier this year, with Beyoncé taking home trophies for Album of the Year and Best Country Album. She is now the most awarded Grammy artist in history.
Beyoncé’s Message
During her acceptance speech for Best Country Album, Beyoncé encouraged artists to pursue their passions and not be limited by genre. She said, "Sometimes genre is a code word to keep us as artists in our place, and I just want to encourage people to do what they are passionate about and persist".
The Cowboy Carter Tour
The Cowboy Carter Tour started in April and is scheduled to end in July. Beyoncé’s second night in Houston was on Sunday, June 29th. Despite the scary moment, the show went on, and fans are eager to see what’s next for the talented singer.
