Chris Martin is calling out some possible trouble in para-para-paradise.
At Coldplay’s July 15th concert held at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, the lead singer interacted with fans on the massive stadium screen for a while. However, he was taken aback by an unrecognized middle-aged duo – a man and a woman – who declined to participate in the interaction.
Chris playfully commented, ‘Check out this pair,’ as he noticed the couple entwined in a hug. The woman immediately hid her face and the man swiftly vanished from camera view. Chris then quipped, ‘It seems like they’re either involved in something secretive, or they just get embarrassed easily.’
As the woman spun around with her back towards them, the camera kept rolling, then Chris, playing his guitar, voiced, “I’m a bit uncertain about my next move.
Naturally, the camera quickly cut to two other fans—wearing matching banana suits.
During Coldplay’s extended performance, a brief embarrassing incident occurred, but it didn’t last long. However, it sparked considerable interest on social media in the ensuing days, with videos from the event garnering millions of engagements across platforms such as X and TikTok.
At the current moment, what could potentially become a viral sensation from a concert isn’t an isolated instance of amazing fan experiences during live events. Artists such as Sabrina Carpenter, Charli XCX, and Olivia Rodrigo often incorporate special moments for fans on large screens within their performances.
At Sabrina’s “Short N’ Sweet” concert performances, she frequently surprises a fan by displaying them on the large screen right before she sings “Juno,” with a police siren sound effect playing simultaneously.
Nonetheless, extravagant gestures are not exclusive to Sabrina alone; her celebrity visitors also occasionally receive them. Notable past attendees include Salma Hayek, Millie Bobby Brown, and Marcello Hernandez from Saturday Night Live, who was momentarily detained during his portrayal of Domingo at Sabrina’s California event in November.
Additionally, performers such as Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber have taken fan engagement a step further by incorporating them into their performance lineups. For instance, during Taylor’s “Eras Tour,” she gave away the black fedora she wore in her “22” costume to numerous fans throughout the 149-show run as a special gift.
Without neglecting to mention Justin’s memorable “One Less Lonely Girl” performance, let’s rewind to the early 2010s when the singer known for “Baby” would invite one fortunate fan on stage, serenading them personally and presenting a bouquet of flowers as a token of affection.
Usually, the mysterious hand gesture was made by an unidentified fan, but there were exceptions. Once, during a New Year’s Eve performance in 2010, Justin Bieber pointed to his ex, Selena Gomez, as part of the ritual. He also repeated this gesture during his wedding with Hailey Bieber in 2019.
(Note: The phrase “pointed to” is used instead of “brought up” to clarify that the gesture was physical rather than verbal.)
At the wedding, Hailey realized she had never been the girl sung to in the song “One Less Lonely Girl.” So everyone encouraged her to go up on stage. In Justin’s 2020 docuseries, she said, “I felt like a kid again, so excited and silly, like it was truly happening onstage.

One of the Jonas Brothers band members needed to call for help and ask their fans to stop tossing items onto the stage, as two wristbands nearly struck him during a concert in California on their tour.
It seems like there might be some confusion; Cardi B clearly doesn’t appreciate it when audience members disrupt her performance. During a show at Drai’s Beachclub in Las Vegas on July 29, someone from the front row spilled their drink on the stage, causing Cardi to react by tossing her microphone.
The following day, an unidentified woman filed a battery report with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, but no arrest or citations have been made thus far. On August 3, Cardi’s legal team informed TMZ that authorities have decided not to press charges against the singer.
Baby, Bebe Rexha is going to have an incredible night, no matter what transpires. At her show in NYC last June, she was hit in the face by a phone thrown by a spectator. She later shared a picture of her injured eye on social media with the caption “I’m good.”
Lawyer Todd A Spodek, who represents Nicolas Malvagna, the man charged with assault, told TMZ that Malvagna was merely a fan who wanted to take pictures with Bebe Rexha and keep the phone as a memento. He insisted that causing injury was never his intention.
Kelsea Ballerini wasn’t particularly charmed when someone tossed jewelry onto the stage during her June performance in Idaho. As she shared on Instagram Stories a few days later, “Someone threw a bracelet, and it hit me right in the eyes,” causing more fear than pain.
As a faithful admirer, let me tell you, she’s not just your typical sweetheart. Ava Max, the renowned “Sweet but Psycho” singer, has spoken up after an unfortunate incident during her L.A. performance in June. The man who assaulted her left quite an impact; he struck her so forcefully that he scratched the inside of her eye. Consequently, this individual will no longer be graced with a presence at any future shows of hers.
Pink, while performing at the British Summer Time Festival in London last June, found it quite thoughtful when a stranger handed her a wheel of Brie during her set. However, she was taken aback and exclaimed, “What the heck,” as she accepted the dairy product. “I’d love to kiss you right on the lips,” she added playfully.
Now, let’s consider why another fan threw a bag of ashes the following day. Pink questioned, “Is this your mom?” She expressed her confusion, saying, “I’m not sure how to feel about this.
Could it be a reflection of current events? During Harry Styles’ recent tour, Love on Tour, he encountered multiple unexpected objects being thrown, such as Skittles candies at a 2022 concert in Los Angeles. Later, the Skittles brand’s representative posted on Twitter, “I never thought I would have to say this: Please do not throw Skittles.
At a February 2022 concert, as Billie Eilish was performing “Lost Cause”, a fan threw a pair of fake breasts at her. Showing that she can handle stress gracefully, the seven-time Grammy winner tossed them back to the audience and continued with her performance.
Friends, let me clarify. During his 2022 Rolling Loud performance, Kid Cudi warned the audience, saying, “If you guys keep throwing things on stage, I’m walking off.” True to his words, moments later, an item was thrown at him again. Consequently, he decided to exit the stage as promised.
Fans of Ariana Grande were left with a bitter taste following an incident in 2019 when she was hit by a lemon while performing as the headliner at Coachella. Despite her evident displeasure, she handled the situation gracefully, dismissively saying to the crowd, “One of you threw a lemon at me, that’s ridiculous.
