Beyoncé’s backup dancers saved her from a fan who rushed the stage

Beyoncé concerts are usually pretty eventful: her incredible vocal range, complex choreography from her backup dancers, and amazing costumes make her performances something you’re likely to remember the rest of your days. That hasn’t changed with her and Jay Z’s  On the Run II tour, where the husband-and-wife couple blend their repertoire—and celebrate their relationship. But on Saturday night, their concert was eventful for a different reason: At the end of the show, when the two turn around to walk offstage together, one fan had a different idea of how the concert would end.

Said fan, wearing a white shirt, rushed the stage, jumped easily onto it, and tried to follow the Carters backstage—and surprisingly, for how tight Bey keeps her security detail, he got pretty far, heading across and deep into the stage. Luckily, the couple’s backup dancers noticed something definitely wasn’t right and wound up breaking formation to swarm the interloper. Her security guard also seems like he was promptly on the scene, thank goodness.

The whole thing captured in a video from the concert, below:

While we’re glad that Bey and Jay are safe, we’re sure it shook them up. The couple’s publicist, Yvette Noel-Schure, confirmed via Instagram that the two were OK. “@beyonce and JAY-Z on stage tonight in Atlanta. Thank you to all the fans for your concern. They are fine and looking forward to the show tomorrow,” she captioned an Instagram post of the two.

It was definitely a pretty terrifying incident. Luckily, the show seems set to go on.
