'I was like, "Let me get on stage with you," and then she freaked out because I think she realized I wasn’t a performer,' the stage invader said.
Katy Perry was Wide Awake after a fan stormed on stage and put his arm around her during a concert in Sydney, Australia on Monday.
Perry was performing her hit song Hot N Cold at the Qudos Bank Arena when the fan rushed onto the stage and began dancing beside her.
The 40-year-old singer looked visibly shocked in a video shared to social media as the man tried to put his arm around her and jumped up and down on stage.
The man started dancing by himself after Perry spun around to distance herself from him and continued to sing.
As he performed the “floss” dance move, security approached him from both sides and escorted him off stage.
“There’s never going to be another show like this, so just enjoy it, Sydney,” Perry said into her microphone as security grabbed the man. “What the hell is going on?”
Police in New South Wales told NBC News that the man has been arrested and charged with two offences, including entering enclosed land and obstructing a person in performance of work or duties.
