Katy Perry Faces Midair Setback as Butterfly Prop Drops During Performance

Katy Perry’s Concert Mishap in San Francisco

Katy Perry experienced a startling moment during her concert in San Francisco on Friday. While performing on a massive butterfly prop, it suddenly descended several feet, causing a tense moment for both her and the audience.

A Scary Moment on Stage

As part of her “Lifetimes Tour,” Perry rides the butterfly prop while singing “Roar.” However, at the Chase Center, a malfunction caused the set piece to lower unexpectedly, alarming everyone present.

Despite the initial shock, Perry quickly regained her composure and continued singing once the butterfly stabilized. The performance resumed without any further incidents.

Perry’s Lighthearted Response

Later, Perry took to Instagram to poke fun at the incident. She shared a close-up photo capturing her surprised expression during the butterfly mishap, humorously writing, “Goodnight San Fran.”

This “Roar” incident isn’t the first of its kind this summer. Beyoncé faced a similar scare when a flying prop malfunctioned during her performance in Houston, leading to a temporary halt.

Previous Tour Challenges

In addition, earlier in her Australian tour, Perry encountered another prop issue. A flying sphere she was riding began to tilt mid-performance, prompting her to cling to the surrounding cables for safety.

Such experiences highlight the unpredictable nature of live performances. Have you ever witnessed a concert mishap?
