Katy Perry escapes major accident after prop malfunctions mid-air during concert, chilling video goes viral

Pop sensation Katy Perry had a close shave during her Lifetimes Tour performance in San Francisco, when a mechanical malfunction caused a giant butterfly prop she was riding to suddenly drop several feet while suspended over the crowd. The video of the incident is grabbing eyeballs on social media. The incident unfolded during her performance of Roar. The viral video shows Perry singing atop the large, winged structure when it unexpectedly tilts forward, sending her slipping from her seat mid-song. The singer momentarily stopped performing as fans below gasped in shock. However, the prop stabilised just in time, preventing a serious accident. Perry then quickly raised her hand to signal she was okay before resuming her performance.

'On the upside the taped song kept on going. Next up they'll replace these 'idols' with robots. It'll be cheaper, more consistent, and no problems with drugs and alcohol use,' a user wrote. 'I'm sorry that's actually so scary, when will artists learn to not use these types of props,' another user commented. 'For someone who blasted off into space I feel that drop was miniscule in comparison,' a third user reacted. Later, Perry addressed the moment on her Instagram Stories, posting a blurry close-up of her expression, captioned, 'Good Night San Fran.' This isn't the first time a high-profile stage prop has caused alarm. Last month, Beyoncé experienced a technical glitch during her Cowboy Carter tour stop in Houston. During her performance of 16 Carriages at NRG Stadium, a flying car prop began to tilt dangerously mid-air, sparking concern among fans. Beyoncé was safely lowered to the stage. She later reassured the crowd with a smile, saying, 'If I ever fall I know y'all would catch me.'

Selena Gomez's kidney donor, Francia Raisa signals support for Justin Bieber fueling feud rumours

Francia Raisa has reignited speculation over her friendship with Selena Gomez after sharing an Instagram post that featured Justin Bieber's new song 'Daisies.' The track, a heartfelt dedication to Hailey Bieber from his latest album Swag, played in the background of Raisa's behind-the-scenes content from Celebrity Family Feud. Bieber later reshared the post to his Instagram Stories, sparking renewed interest in Raisa's apparent support. In the caption, Raisa wrote, 'Spoiler Alert: We Won! I had so much fun playing Celebrity Family Feud with my familia. What made it really special was getting to play for a cause that meant something personal.' She revealed the episode was filmed the same weekend as her late friend Supanna's birthday, a connection that made the experience deeply meaningful. Raisa's team played for The Breasties, a cancer support nonprofit. Still, fans focused on her song choice. With 'Daisies' being a known tribute to Hailey Bieber and Raisa's former best friend, Selena Gomez, notably absent from the post, users on social media speculated whether this marked the end of their once-close bond. Bieber's quiet repost only added to the intrigue. Raisa and Gomez have had a complex relationship since Raisa famously donated a kidney to the singer in 2017. While they've both downplayed reports of a rift, public interactions have been minimal in recent years. Now, with Raisa embracing a track by Gomez's most high-profile ex, fans are left wondering if the silence between them speaks volumes.
