Beyoncé’s "Cowboy Carter" tour stop in Houston took an unexpected twist on Saturday night when a technical issue interrupted her performance of “16 Carriages.”
The music icon was mid-song, floating high above the audience in a bright red car-shaped stage prop, when the vehicle suddenly began to tilt.
Staying calm despite the situation, Beyoncé instructed her team, saying, “Stop. Stop. Stop. Stop,” as she hovered in the air.
Crew members acted quickly, bringing her safely back down to the floor level, where fans cheered as she exited the prop with a smile and a wave.
Always composed, Beyoncé addressed the crowd warmly once back on stage.
“Thank you for loving me,” she told the audience. “If ever I fall, I know y’all catch me.”
Shortly after the show, Beyoncé’s company, Parkwood Entertainment, released a statement confirming the malfunction and reassuring fans that no one was hurt.
“Tonight in Houston, at NRG Stadium, a technical mishap caused the flying car, a prop Beyoncé uses to circle the stadium and see her fans up close, to tilt. She was quickly lowered, and no one was injured. The show continued without incident,” the statement read, shared via Instagram Stories early Sunday.
This isn’t the first time the “Texas Hold ’Em” singer has handled an onstage glitch with grace.
While performing "Halo" in Montreal during her 2013 Mrs. Carter Show World Tour, her hair became tangled in a large stage fan.
In true Beyoncé fashion, she didn’t miss a beat, continuing the song as her team worked to free her.
Even in unpredictable moments, Queen Bey reminds everyone why she remains one of the world’s top live performers.
