Nick Jonas Retreats from Stage During Jonas Brothers Concert in Prague After Laser Pointer Incident
During a Tuesday night Jonas Brothers concert in Prague, Nick Jonas abruptly left the stage when a laser was pointed at him from the audience, Page Six reported. The incident occurred at the O2 Arena, and video footage shows Nick, 32, gesturing frantically to his security before making a "time out" signal and dashing off the stage. Security removed the person responsible, allowing the show to resume after a pause of about ten minutes.
The interruption delayed the concert until the potential threat was addressed and Nick, along with his brothers Joe, 35, and Kevin, 36, returned to perform songs such as "BB Good." Video shared on social media captured the moment, showing both Nick's quick exit and the disturbing sight of a red laser aimed at his head.
Fans reacted strongly online, expressing relief at Nick's safety and criticizing those deeming his reaction excessive, noting comparisons of lasers to threats like snipers. This security breach recalls past altercations, where Nick has scolded audiences for throwing items like bracelets — during one such event in Sacramento. This adds to a broader, worrying trend of performers facing unruly audiences.
Such incidents include Bebe Rexha's sustaining a facial injury after a fan's cellphone hit her during a New York City concert, followed by the fan's arrest and subsequent expulsion over another disturbance in Norway. Other stars like Harry Styles and Kelsea Ballerini have also suffered similar disruptions, causing injuries during performances, illustrating a concerning pattern of safety threats for performing artists.
