Wtf is wrong with that dude."by Krista TorresBuzzFeed StaffFacebookPinterestLink A very frightening moment took place at the Singapore premiere of Wicked: For Good on Thursday morning. Suhaimi Abdullah / Getty Images Ariana, Cynthia, and Michelle Yeoh were walking the carpet when a fan broke through the crowd and rushed Ariana. Suhaimi Abdullah / Getty Images There are several angles of the clip circulating the internet. In this one by @PopBase you can see the man in the white shirt rushing toward her. @lalisatto / x.com And once he reaches her, you can see him laughing while Ariana looks understandably frightened. @lalisatto / x.com This all happens in a matter of seconds, and the man appears to yank her as well... @lalisatto / x.com Until Cynthia rushes over to push him off of her. @lanagrandes / x.com Ariana clearly looks very shaken up by the whole encounter. @lalisatto / x.com While Cynthia rightfully looks super upset that it happened to begin with. @lanagrandes / x.com Concerned for Ari, you can see Cynthia check in with her after it happened. @lanagrandes / x.com And Cynthia embraces her with a hug. @lalisatto / x.com The attack is pretty upsetting to watch. @danagagged / x.com But, at the same time, it is a testament to the depth of the friendship Ari and Cynthia must share. @lanagrandes / x.com The attacker has been identified on social media and has "Troll Most Hated" as his bio: @Tiana69679342 / x.com The encounter is posted to the attacker's Instagram, and people are not holding back on their thoughts. @pyjamamann / instagram.com People are also calling out Ariana's security team for not stepping in sooner. @thiscantbeyoufr / x.com It's a flex for Cynthia, but one she shouldn't have to use. @buffys / x.com Sadly, fans acting out of line, and security not stepping in soon enough, is, unfortunately, not new. In fact, just last month, Billie Eilish was suddenly pulled into the crowd by an aggressive fan in the front row during her show in Miami. @billieforever2001 / tiktok.com So, even though security should always be on top of their game, the moral of the story is: Fans do better because THIS is not okay: @lalisatto / x.com
