“I will have you escorted out right now”: Beyonce’s Fan Faced Serious Consequences For Slapping Her Butt During Live Performance
Guess who knows how to remain calm in a crisis? The multi-talented Beyonce (singer, songwriter, record producer, dancer, and actress) proved to her adoring fans on May 2013, that she is a consummate professional.
The CUFF IT singer was midway through singing her hit song, Irreplaceable, when a male fan got a little too close and reached out to slap the 41-year-old singer-songwriter on her b*tt. She had appeared noticeably unimpressed when an overly eager audience member decided to try his luck and reached up to spank her on the behind during her performance at the Forum Copenhagen.
As if nothing had happened, Beyonce then resumed her performance. The incident, which a fan captured on video, obviously went viral.
For the unversed, the pop ballad, Irreplaceable by Beyoncé peaked at number one in 2007 while selling 4.6 million copies globally.
When A Fan Had Slapped Beyonce’s B*tt In 2013
Beyoncé has bravely worked her way up the music world ladder since her early success in the 1990s as the lead singer of the R&B group, Destiny’s Child. The star, like most entertainers, has had her fair share of encounters with overly enthusiastic fans, as was the case in 2013, when a concertgoer slapped her b*tt during a live performance.
Full name, Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter, who has won 32 Grammy Awards, is a professional who had shut the man down in the most graceful manner imaginable in 2013.
When an overly enthusiastic fan puts his hand in an inappropriate place, what should a superstar do? Apparently, a verbal slap from Beyonce was the perfect response to the backside slap from the over-excited fan.
A fan was singing along to the lyrics “To the left, to the left” with the singer at a concert in Copenhagen, Denmark, one month into the tour. The man at the time approached Beyoncé, and then slapped her b*tt as she turned to leave.
She abruptly stopped singing out of shock, turned around to face the man, and said loudly, “I will have you escorted out right now, all right?”
She Ruled With ‘The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour’
Beyoncé began her solo career in 2003, reaching the top of the charts with her song Crazy in Love, which featured her current husband, rapper Jay-Z. The power couple tied the knot in 2008 and has since welcomed three children.
The superstar, 41, has performed eight concert tours, five of them internationally, and even logged countless hours on stage shaking her booty. However, just because the Bootylicious singer has a reputation for having sensual attire and lyrics, it doesn’t give anyone the right to touch her without her permission.
The If I Were a Boy singer performed as the halftime show’s headlining act in 2013, one year after the birth of her daughter, Blue Ivy Carter. She later revealed her fifth concert tour, much to the delight of her audience. It was aptly titled ‘The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour’, as it was inspired by her husband.
The 2013-2014 tour had seven legs and 132 performances, starting in Belgrade, Serbia, and ending in Lisbon, Portugal. Beyoncé reportedly earned $229.7 million in 2013, making her the highest-earning female artist and solo tour act.
Well, some advice: If you are likely to go to any of her shows in the future, keep all of your arms, legs, and limbs to yourself unless you plan to lose one to Beyonce’s security.
