Chris Brown Appears Upset After Technical Glitch Leaves Him Hanging From Rope During Concert

Chris Brown experienced an unexpected twist during his performance in Newark, New Jersey on Tuesday night, June 11th, when he got stuck suspended in the air mid-song due to a malfunction with his wires.

In a video that is now going viral online, the Grammy-winning R&B star was suspended above the stage at the Prudential Center during his performance of Under the Influence when his wires suddenly malfunctioned. Despite the mishap, Chris Brown, 35,  continued singing, and the crowd appeared initially unaware of the situation.

Displaying signs of frustration, Chris Brown signaled to stagehands for assistance. He persevered with his performance, singing through the ordeal.

After several attempts to get down, a ladder was brought onstage, allowing Brown to safely make his way to the ground, although there was some visible exchange of words with the crew.
