“This is scary”: Fans worried as Beyoncé faces scary moment on Floating Car during her Cowboy Carter concert in Houston

On Saturday, June 28, Beyoncé kicked off her Cowboy Carter tour in Houston at NRG Stadium.

The music superstar faced a technical issue during her show when a stage prop malfunctioned. While singing "16 Carriages," Beyoncé sat on a red convertible hanging above the crowd. Without warning, the car started to tip to one side. This forced the singer to stop her performance for a bit.

Fans in the audience captured the scary moment on video and shared it online. The footage shows Beyoncé keeping her cool as the car unexpectedly tilts in mid-air. The singer had a safety harness and held onto a cable for support. The audio for the show cut out as she told her team to "stop" several times.

During this brief moment of uncertainty, Beyoncé seemingly kept her cool, nodding to the crowd and expressing gratitude for their understanding. In the end, the issue was sorted, and the singer sat back down on the prop before the lights in the venue went dark.

"This is scary asf , I hope she is fine we cant lost a generation talent," a fan wrote on X.
