Brazilian Police Arrest 2 People over Alleged Plot Targeting Lady Gaga Concert in Rio

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Police in Brazil said on Sunday that two people have been arrested in connection with an alleged plot to detonate explosives at a free Lady Gaga concert in Rio de Janeiro. The Rio event on Saturday was the biggest show of the pop star's career that attracted an estimated 2.5 million fans to Copacabana Beach and had crowds screaming and dancing along. Felipe Cury, secretary of the Rio police, said authorities believed the suspects sought to target Brazil's LGBTQ community. 'They were clearly saying that they were planning an attack at Lady Gaga's concert motivated by sexual orientation,' Cury told a press conference on Sunday. Rio Police chief Luiz Lima said the group disseminated hate speech and violent content online 'aimed at gaining notoriety in order to attract more viewers, more participants — most of them teenagers, many of them children.' Even as Brazilian authorities said they arrested suspects in the hours before Lady Gaga's show, the event went ahead without disruption — leading some to question the seriousness of the threat. Serious security concerns typically lead organizers to cancel such massive events — as happened with Taylor Swift's concerts in Vienna last year. Police said said nothing about the alleged plot at the time to in an effort to 'avoid panic' and 'the distortion of information.' A spokesperson for Lady Gaga said the pop star and her team 'learned about this alleged threat via media reports this morning. Prior to and during the show, there were no known safety concerns, nor any communication from the police or authorities to Lady Gaga regarding any potential risks.' The statement added: 'Her team worked closely with law enforcement throughout the planning and execution of the concert and all parties were confident in the safety measures in place.' Security was tight at Saturday's concert, with 5,200 military and police officers deployed to the beach where fans were reveling in the pop singer's classic hits like 'Born This Way,' which became something of an LGBTQ anthem after its 2011 release. Homes in several states raided Authorities arrested two people in connection with the alleged plot — a man described as the group's leader in the southern state of Rio Grande do Sul on illegal weapons possession charges, and a teenager in Rio on child pornography charges. Police did not elaborate on their exact roles in the plot or on how the group came to target Lady Gaga's free concert. 'Those involved were recruiting participants, including teenagers, to carry out integrated attacks using improvised explosives and Molotov cocktails,' police said. The Justice Ministry said that it determined the group posed a 'risk to public order.' It said the group falsely presented themselves online as 'Little Monsters' — Lady Gaga's nickname for her fans — in order to lure teeangers into 'networks with violent and self-destructive content.' During a series of raids on the homes of 15 suspects across several Brazilian states, authorities confiscated phones and other electronic devices. Although police said they believed homemade bombs were intended for use in the planned attack, there was no mention of the raids turning up any weapons or explosive material. Cury said one of the suspects whose home was raided in the city of Macaé, near Rio, 'had a religious motivation' and 'claimed the singer (Lady Gaga) was a Satanist.' 'Historical moment' Lady Gaga has expressed gratitude for the enormous crowd in an Instagram post that said nothing of the alleged plot. 'Nothing could prepare me for the feeling I had during last night's show — the absolute pride and joy I felt singing for the people of Brazil,' she wrote. 'The sight of the crowd during my opening songs took my breath away. Your heart shines so bright, your culture is so vibrant and special, I hope you know how grateful I am to have shared this historical moment with you.' Her free beach concert stood out at a time of surging ticket prices for live music around the world as concert-goers pay budget-busting costs to see their favorite artists. Last month she performed at Coachella Valley music festival in California, where tickets fetched upwards of $600 for one weekend. Rio has done this before — last May, superstar Madonna performed the finale to her latest world tower for some 1.6 million fans on the sprawling sands of Copacabana Beach.

Lady Gaga rocks Copacabana Beach with a free concert for more than 2 million fans
RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) -- Lady Gaga gave a free concert Saturday night in front of 2 million fans who poured onto Copacabana Beach for the biggest show of her career. "Tonight, we're making history. (...) Thank you for making history with me," Lady Gaga told a screaming crowd. The Mother Monster, as she is known, kicked off the show at around 22:10 p.m. local time with her 2011 song "Bloody Mary." Cries of joy rose from the tightly-packed fans who sang and danced shoulder-to-shoulder on the vast stretch of sand. Concert organizers said 2.1 million people attended the show. Lady Gaga performed her classic hits, including "Poker Face" and "Alejandro," switching between an array of dresses including one with the colors of the Brazilian flag. Some fans - many of them young - arrived on the beach at the crack of dawn to secure a good spot, armed with snacks and drinks. They spent the day under a blazing sun, while others perched in trees, determined to get a panoramic view. "Today is the best day of my life," said Manoela Dobes, a 27-year-old designer who was wearing a dress plastered with a photograph from when she met Lady Gaga in the United States in 2019. "It's surreal to be here." Madonna also turned Copacabana Beach into a massive dance floor last year. The large-scale performances are part of an effort led by City Hall to boost economic activity after Carnival and New Years' Eve festivities and the upcoming month-long Saint John's Day celebrations in June. "It brings activity to the city during what was previously considered the low season -- filling hotels and increasing spending in bars, restaurants, and retail, generating jobs and income for the population," said Osmar Lima, the city's secretary of economic development, in a statement released by Rio City Hall's tourism department last month. Rio's City Hall said in a recent report that the show should inject at least 600 million reais (some $106 million) into Rio's economy. Similar concerts are scheduled to take place every year in May at least until 2028. Lady Gaga arrived in Rio in the early hours of Tuesday. The city has been alive with Gaga-mania since, as it geared up to welcome the pop star for her first show in the country since 2012. Rio's metro employees danced to Lady Gaga's 2008 hit song "LoveGame" and gave instructions for Saturday in a video. A free exhibition celebrating her career sold out. While the vast majority of attendees were from Rio, the event also attracted Brazilians from across the country and international visitors. More than 500,000 tourists poured into the city in the days leading up to the show, more than double the initial forecast, according to data from the local bus station and Tom Jobim airport, Rio's City Hall said in a statement on Friday. Ingrid Serrano, a 30-year-old engineer, made a cross-continent trip from Colombia to Brazil to attend the show. "I've been a 100% fan of Lady Gaga my whole life," said Serrano, who was wearing a T-shirt featuring Lady Gaga's outlandish costumes over the years. For her, the mega-star represents "total freedom of expression - being who one wants without shame." Rio officials have a history of organizing huge concerts on Copacabana Beach. Madonna's show drew an estimated 1.6 million fans last year, while 4 million people flooded onto the beach for a 1994 New Year's Eve show by Rod Stewart in 1994. According to Guinness World Records, that was the biggest free rock concert in history. To ensure fans could hear the songs, sixteen sound towers were spread along the beach. Rio state's security plan included the presence of 3,300 military and 1,500 police officers, and 400 military firefighters. Among those present were Lady Gaga admirers who remember their disappointment in 2017, when the artist canceled a performance scheduled in Rio at the last minute due to health issues. Ricardo Filho, who has been a fan since childhood, said it was worth the wait. "She's the best artist in the world," the 25-year-old said, as chants of "Gaga, I love you" in Portuguese rose from the crowd behind him.
