Beyoncé’s Recently Experienced A WILD Moment On Her Tour
While Kandi’s out here collecting checks on the CC tour, Beyoncé had a moment at her recent show that left fans holding their breath. On June 28 at Houston’s NRG Stadium, Bey was performing “16 Carriages” when she took to the skies on a Cadillac prop. But things got real when the prop started tilting to one side midair. Videos circulating on X captured the scary moment, with fans watching in concern.
Bey, being the queen she is, stayed relaxed, calmly telling the crew to “stop” as the music cut off. Sis was left dangling for a hot second but kept it profesh, thanking the crowd for their patience. Her team quickly got her back to solid ground, with her bodyguard Julius right by her side. Beyoncé picked up right where she left off, finishing the song like the icon she is. Talk about grace under pressure!
