The British singer Adele will not tolerate cell phones or ‘gifts’ being thrown at her while she is singing, and she made it clear to her followers: “Dare to throw something at me and I’ll kill you,” he warned them during a series of concerts he offered in Las Vegas.
The public captured the moment in which Adele explained to them that for her it was “a violation of damn etiquette Show; people throwing trash on the stage, have you seen it?”, he asked them ironically, while the crowd approved his words.
“Well, I challenge you: Dare to throw something at me and I’ll kill you,” she promised, armed with a gun on her T-shirt. which, immediately after, shot.

It is nothing new for an artist to see something fall on stage during one of their performances, but it is generally intended that objects be placed at their feet and are usually flowers, letters or clothing.
However, a more recent trend is to throw blunt objects, specifically cell phones, at the singer’s body, which is what happened Brazilian Bebe Rexha, who needed several stitches for a cut eyebrow that left her with a bruised eye.
Bebe Rexha was hospitalized after a concertgoer hit her in the head with a phone because he thought it would be ‘funny’. Rexha is ‘fine’ after being stitched up, and the perpetrator has been arrested and charged with assault.

In theory, the purpose of the phone is for the idol to take photos or videos with it, but in this second case, the fan admitted that he wanted to hit her to get attention.
Soon after, the singer Ava Max got slapped by the assistant to his exhibition in Los Angeles. The singer vowed to make sure that the topic does not bother her shows in the future.
He slapped me so hard he scratched the inside of my eye. Will never come to a show again 😡😡thank you fans for being spectacular in LA tonight!!❤️

And a few days later, the artist Kelsea Ballerini was hit by an electronic device in Idaho. She attributed it to a fight in the audience. “If they push you hard or you don’t feel safe, let them know. Don’t throw things,” he said into the microphone.
And it is known that he is at a concert Pinksomeone threw a bag of human ashes on him.

This type of attack is not limited to women. Something similar happened to a reggaeton player Rauw Alejandro, but he reached for the phone which he first connected with his head and smashed it on the floor. Rapper Lil Nas fell for a sex toy. Harry Styles got eye candy, reports the BBC.

Among the musicians who spoke out, like Adele, preemptively, are Charlie Puth, who assessed the actions in question as disrespectful and dangerous, and asked people to go enjoy the music; and Jason Derulo, who asked artists not to participate by collecting phones for photography.
The director of the Berklee Institute for Popular Music, Morgan Milardo, explained to NBCNews for the performers to understand that the items on stage are part of the trade, and that the fans are generally not acting maliciously, but trying to convey a sign of their admiration.
However, she attributed the recent incidents to the desire for virality and attention. Why are we going to the concert? That there is no viral moment on TikTok just for us. A concert should offer us togetherness, we gather to share the magic of live music.
But there is an additional element. Female artists are the target of increasingly aggressive statements because they’re being asked to be more vulnerable, kinder and more open with their fans, to the point that they’re willing to put up with whatever they ask of them. (AND)
