Rapper Chris Brown found himself in an unexpected predicament during his concert at Newark's Prudential Center on Wednesday. A performance stunt went awry, leaving the rapper suspended mid-air from the ceiling while performing his 2019 hit Under the Influence. Despite this technical glitch, Brown continued to perform, discreetly signaling for assistance from the stage crew. One such video has now gone viral.

Fans reacted with mixed comments to the incident, with one noting, "This man was hanging for a long ass time before anyone realized he was stuck."
'Like how he's just hanging there like an angry fairy'
