Beyoncé and Jay-Z concert thrown into chaos after fan storms stage
The
Carters had just finished performing their latest track “Apesh-t” at
the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia on Saturday night when a
man in a white jersey and black shorts ran up and tried to follow them
backstage, the New York Post reports.
But luckily for their back-up dancers, who acted quickly in chasing down the intruder, the man never reached the famous couple.
The scary moment was captured and shared by concertgoersit on social media.
“Oh my God! What the hell?!” audience members could be heard yelling, as the dancers, clad in yellow and black striped bodysuits scuffle with the intruder.
At least three security guards can then be seen tackling him to the ground but fans were not happy that a man was able to get up on stage in the first place.
The identity of the stage rusher was still unknown.
The On The Run II tour team said they had an “intoxicated male enter the stage” and had to evacuate all crew to diffuse the situation.
No one was hurt and the Carters won’t be pressing charges, the statement said.

Someone jumped on stage and tried to rush Beyoncé & JAY Z at the end of tonight's show in Atlanta. #OTRII Dancers tried to stop them. The Beyhive is wondering, where in the world was security as the dancers were left to defend themselves as he pushed and ran on stage. pic.twitter.com/DBWgMdjVdr— Beyoncé Enforcer (@BeyonceEnforcer) August 26, 2018
