Videos show Katy Perry's mid-air prop malfunction at San Francisco concert
Katy Perry was clinging to a butterfly prop during her Lifetimes Tour concert on July 18 in San Francisco. In multiple fan videos, Perry nearly falls above the audience at the Chase Center as the prop malfunctions while she is in the air. While singing her 2013 hit song "Roar," the 13-time Grammy nominee was riding on the prop when it titled and dropped, seemingly causing her to lose her balance. USA TODAY has reached out to reps for Perry for comment. In the clip, Perry looks back up at the prop's wires and down at the audience before continuing to sing "Roar," crooning "and you're gonna hear me roar, louder than a lion." Orlando Bloom, Katy Perry breakup: Couple to focus on co-parenting daughter Daisy With her signature humor, the "Last Friday Night" hitmaker Perry jokingly took to her Instagram Stories with a blurred, zoomed in picture of her reaction to the viral moment, captioning the post "Good Night San Fran." High-flying, mid-air performances were popularized by Perry's fellow popstar Pink. The Perry malfunction comes weeks after a Beyoncé concert June 28 when the Cowboy Carter creator sang her hit single "16 Carriages" while soaring in a red car when a technical glitch caused the vehicle to tilt midair. She briefly paused the show telling everyone to "stop" repeatedly, before being safely lowered and landing the car among the audience. There were no injuries. Shortly after, Beyoncé returned to the stage cool, calm and collected. She joked, "if I ever fall, I know y'all will catch me," before carrying on with the show. It's been a busy, rollercoaster year for the "California Girls" singer. Perry recently wrapped a four-show stint in Adelaide, Australia, which capped nearly four weeks of performing in the island country, as she ended her concert emotionally following a highly publicized split from longtime partner Orlando Bloom. "Thank you for always being there for me, Australia; it means the world," a teary-eyed Perry told the crowd as her 4-year-old daughter Daisy Dove's vocals on her "143" album-closing track "Wonder" rang out in the arena. She shook off the emotion and said, "Now let's sing 'Firework!'" The A-list actor and Perry confirmed their split in a July 3 statement to USA TODAY via their representatives.
