Adele hits out at rowdy concertgoers: I dare you to throw something at me

Adele fearlessly addressed the issue of concertgoers throwing objects at performers, issuing a warning during her "Weekends with Adele" Residency at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, US.

The Grammy-winning British pop star expressed her frustration with the lack of audience etiquette, vowing to put an end to this trend.

Viewer discretion advised: Strong, abusive language

In recent incidents involving artists like Pink, Ava Max, Kelsea Ballerini, and Bebe Rexha, items have been hurled at them while they were onstage. Adele took a firm stand against this behaviour, challenging the audience by saying, "I dare you to throw something at me."

She even playfully shot a t-shirt into the crowd, remarking, "Stop throwing things at the artist when you can shoot things to people... These people lost it, can you imagine?"

Highlighting the seriousness of the issue, Adele referenced recent incidents involving her fellow musicians. Pink encountered a fan who threw a bag of their mother's ashes on stage during her London performance. Similarly, Kelsea Ballerini was struck by an object thrown from the crowd while singing at the Idaho Botanical Garden in Boise. These incidents underscore the need for better respect and behavior among concert attendees.

In another disturbing incident, a man threw a phone at American singer Bebe Rexha during her concert in New York City, causing her to sustain a black eye. The assailant was subsequently arrested and charged with assault. 

And a day later, singer-songwriter Ava Max faced physical assault when a man slapped her onstage during a show in Los Angeles, causing injury to her eye.
