ATLANTA (CelebrityAccess) Last night’s “On The Run II” stop ended moments early as a fan rushed the stage during the last refrains of Jay-Z’s and Beyoncé’s “Apesh*t.”
The power couple exited the stage as dancers and security sprung into action. The Carters have decided to not press charges.
The tour issued the following statement:
“At the end of last night’s show, we had an intoxicated male enter the stage. At this point, we had a controlled evacuation of all crew on the stage in order to safely defuse the situation. We are happy to confirm that nobody was hurt during the incident, and Mr. & Mrs. Carter are choosing not to press charges against the individual.
“We would like to thank the hard work of our tour security who effectively restrained the individual and all of our dancers and team who handled the situation so professionally.
“Mr. & Mrs. Carter look forward to seeing you all tomorrow in Atlanta.”
The incident may have been a short and, thankfully, without injuries, but that didn’t stop the UK’s Daily Mail from embellishing it into a 24-paragraph story with the headline “Beyoncé and Jay-Z concert in Atlanta ends in carnage.”
