Johnson Wen, a 26-year-old man with a history of concert disruptions, was removed from Lady Gaga's concert at Brisbane's Suncorp Stadium prior to the event's start. Wen had recently been jailed for nine days in Singapore and deported after grabbing pop star Ariana Grande during the Asian premiere of Wicked: For Good, an act that led to public outrage in Singapore and his ban from the country. Although Wen did not disrupt the performance in Brisbane, security removed him based on his record of interfering with performances by global artists such as Katy Perry and The Weeknd. The venue cited concerns for the artist's safety in denying Wen entry to the concert. Grande has shared having post-traumatic stress disorder from a 2017 bombing at her Manchester concert, underscoring the serious implications of disruptions at celebrity events.
