Chris Brown’ highly successful ‘11:11 Tour’ hit another snag recently, much to the disappointment of fans and the artist himself. Barely a week after making headlines for being stuck mid-air during a failed aerial stunt, the GRAMMY-winning singer faced yet another technical glitch—this time involving an elevator on stage.
The incident occurred while Chris Brown was performing his 2014 hit, ‘New Flame.’ Mid-performance, the lift beneath him began to move unexpectedly and then got stuck, forcing the visibly frustrated artist to walk off the stage. His annoyance was palpable as he exited, a scene that quickly became a hot topic on social media.

Despite the hiccup, Brown demonstrated his professionalism by returning to finish the show without further issues. However, at the time of this writing, he has not commented publicly on the malfunction.
The reaction from fans on social media was swift and varied. One fan expressed sympathy, writing, “Feel so bad for him…☹️ Oh well, he still ended brilliantly.” Another fan noted, “The stage production team needs a raise,” highlighting the hard work of the behind-the-scenes crew.
Not all comments were supportive. Some fans showed frustration on Brown’s behalf, with one saying, “Bro is fed up with his team sabotaging his tour. 😭😭😭” Another added, “Oh, I would’ve been PISSED. Ain’t this the second malfunction? Somebody’s gettin’ fired!”
He mad as hell. This like the 2nd show where something mechanical has gone wrong. They had him hanging in the wiring one show. Had to perform a couple songs just hanging above the crowd lol

Others humorously referenced previous issues, “He mad as hell. This like the second show where something mechanical has gone wrong. They had him hanging in the wiring one show. Had to perform a couple songs just hanging above the crowd lol.”
While technical difficulties are an unfortunate reality of live performances, repeated issues can tarnish even the most meticulously planned tours. For an artist like Chris Brown, known for his high-energy performances and complex stage setups, these malfunctions are particularly disruptive.
