Charlie Puth is not staying silent when it comes to the dangerous trend of throwing objects at performers during live concerts. The talented singer, known for hits like “We Don’t Talk Anymore,” took to Twitter to express his frustration and urge fans to simply enjoy the music without resorting to such disrespectful and hazardous behavior.
Charlie Puth Blasts New Trend In His Tweet
Puth’s plea came in response to a series of incidents involving fellow musicians who were harmed by unruly concertgoers. Bebe Rexha, Ava Max, and Kelsea Ballerini all fell victim to objects being thrown at them while they were on stage, resulting in injuries and unsettling experiences.
The alarming sequence started when Rexha experienced a cellphone striking her face during a show in New York City. Fortunately, authorities apprehended the perpetrator, and they faced assault charges for the incident. Rexha, on the other hand, had to seek medical attention and shared a photo of her bruised eye adorned with stitches.
Shortly thereafter, Ava Max experienced a similar ordeal when a man assaulted her on stage in Los Angeles, leaving her with a scratched eye. The string of incidents reached its culmination when a fan threw a flying object that hit Kelsea Ballerini during a performance in Idaho. While she briefly left the stage, Ballerini made a brave return and appealed to the crowd for cooperation in creating a safe environment for everyone.
Even renowned artist Pink became a victim of this unsettling trend. During a concert in London, a fan threw their deceased mother’s ashes at her, causing shock and confusion. In a video that went viral, Pink confronted the concertgoer, expressing uncertainty about the gesture.
Puth, deeply concerned by these incidents, took to social media to voice his frustration and concern. He pleaded with fans to abandon this disturbing trend and focus on enjoying the music without jeopardizing the safety of performers. Puth highlighted the importance of respecting artists and their craft, emphasizing that throwing objects is not only disrespectful but also poses a significant danger.
This trend of throwing things at performers while they are on stage must come to an end. (Bebe, Ava, AND NOW Kelsea Ballerini…) It’s so disrespectful and very dangerous. Please just enjoy the music I beg of you…
