Just a day after Beyoncé made headlines for a prop malfunction on her tour, pop star Katy Perry faced a major scare during her Lifetimes Tour in Australia. The singer narrowly avoided a fall when a stage prop malfunctioned during her performance.
Perry was climbing into a large metal sphere suspended on cables above the stage when, as the sphere was lifted into the air, it began to tilt dangerously to one side. The singer had to hold on tightly to the frame as fans watched in horror. Crew members quickly cut the music and dimmed the lights to assist Perry and ensure her safety.
Videos shared online show the crowd chanting “Go, Katy!” as she, with the help of her crew, managed to climb out of the metal globe and descend to safety. The dramatic rescue was captured by fans and quickly circulated on social media, with one viewer commenting, “Wait, not Katy Perry almost falling from the giant ball… this is scary as hell. Omg, it’s scarier than it looked.” Another fan praised her composure, saying, “Katy Perry handled it like a queen.”
The incident drew comparisons to Beyoncé’s recent mishap during her Cowboy Carter tour, where her ‘flying’ red Cadillac prop tilted dangerously, forcing her to halt her performance and be brought down safely. Both incidents have reignited conversations about stage safety for performers and the risks they take to entertain their fans. One social media user said, “Main pop girlies are literally risking their lives to put on a show!” while another added, “Thank God it didn’t happen when she was high up in the air.”
