Chaos unexpectedly ensued during Beyoncé and JAY-Z’s On The Run II Tour stop in Atlanta on Saturday night (August 25). When the power couple made their exit following a performance of their “APESHIT” single, a fan rushed the stage and tried to follow the two backstage.
Some of the backup dancers soon realized what was going on and sprang into action to stop the man. Security got involved in the hectic situation, which had some in the crowd believing a fight broke out on stage.
The stage rushing-fan was identified as Anthony Charles Thomas Maxwell, according to TMZ. The 26-year-old man was reportedly issued a citation for disorderly conduct but not jailed.
Beyoncé’s publicist Yvette Noel-Schure issued a brief statement on Instagram, letting the public know her longtime client and Hov were OK.
“@beyonce and JAY-Z on stage tonight in Atlanta,” Noel-Schure wrote. “Thank you to all the fans for your concern. They are fine and looking forward to the show tomorrow.”

Knowing the way these two act this was probably staged! Corny people like Jay and Bey need publicity to keep their mediocre talent in the news! It’s a shame both used to be great but since their is no longer competition, why would they need to work hard when people still are going to pay?
Get offline and stop hating with ya broke ass.
You’d think Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s fans would act more professional and act like grown ups, but nope, gotta run up on stage and ruin the show for everybody. Us Drake fans do all our fangirling and screaming in the stands and front row without having to be a nuisance on stage, even if we don’t get a hand slap from our handsome king. Pusha T wishes he had fans at all.
And Drake still lost to Pusha.
the king and queen of the black dummys
What are you doing here? Shouldn’t you be at a Trump rally?
The “fan” was a white man, but okay.
fuck jay-z is hella ugly.
haha , jay got that money & pussy & skills on the m. i. c though [especially back in the day]
“Thank you to all the fans for your concern. They are fine and looking forward to the show tomorrow.”
LOL. Like a former drug dealer will be shocked because a fan ran onstage……
