When will fans learn to keep their composure? It seems that some individuals cannot resist the urge to throw objects at their beloved stars. The most recent casualty? None other than Harry Styles, who suffered an eye injury during his concert in Vienna on Saturday (July 8).

The concert was in full swing, the atmosphere was electric, and everyone was having the time of their lives. However, out of nowhere, an object was hurled from the crowd, striking Harry directly in the eye. Ouch!

Videos capturing the incident quickly went viral on social media, revealing the exact moment of impact.

In the footage, one can clearly see the pain on his face as his hands instinctively rush to his injured eye with an exclamation of "ooww!"

This unfortunate incident is not an isolated one.

Drake hit by a cell phone

Drake's first night of the It's A Blur tour in Chicago took an unexpected turn when an overzealous audience decided to take their enthusiasm to extreme heights by hurling a cell phone in his direction.

This is a recent incident from July 5 just when the 36-year-old rapper was in the midst of covering Ginuwine's timeless hit "So Anxious."

The phone came hurtling through the air, striking Drake on the wrist before falling to the ground.

Momentarily caught off guard, Drake refused to let the fan's shocking behavior derail his mission. He brushed off the incident and seamlessly continued his electrifying performance, determined not to let anything dampen the spirit of the night.

Kelsea Ballerini struck in the face

On June 28, Kelsea Ballerini was unexpectedly hit in the face by an object thrown during her concert.

Videos captured by attendees swiftly spread across social media, documenting the moment of impact on Ballerini's face.

The unexpected blow caught her off guard and briefly disrupted the flow of the performance.

The following day, the country singer took to her Instagram stories to assure her fans, stating, "I'm fine. Someone threw a bracelet, it hit me in the eye, and it scared me more than it hurt me."

A slap on Ava Max

During her performance in Los Angeles on June 21, an unidentified individual jumped onstage and slapped the 29-year-old "Sweet but Psycho" singer on the forehead.

Video footage captured the moment of the fan's action, prompting immediate security intervention to remove the intruder from the stage.

Despite the disturbance, Ava Max chose professionalism over distraction, completing her routine before stepping offstage.

Later that night, she revealed on Twitter that she had sustained an eye injury.

Cell phone attack on Bebe Rexha

Pop sensation Bebe Rexha found herself in a harrowing situation during her concert in New York City.

While performing, a cell phone was thrown, striking her directly in the head on June 19. Rexha clutched her face and fell to her knees in pain. The impact was so forceful that it resulted in a split eyebrow, requiring stitches to address the injury.

The concert crew immediately took action, rushing to assist the shaken artist.

Taking to Instagram, Rexha reassured her fans by sharing an update on her condition. Alongside two photos displaying the injury to her eye, she captioned the post with a simple statement: "I'm good."

Ashes thrown at Pink's concert

In a bizarre and deeply unsettling turn of events, a fan pushed the boundaries of acceptable behavior by throwing their mother's ashes onto the stage during Pink's performance of "Just Like A Pill" at the BST Hyde Park festival in London on June 27.

Surprised and visibly taken aback, Pink paused momentarily to process the incident.

In the captured video, the 43-year-old artist is seen cautiously picking up the bag containing the human remains. She directly addresses the fan, seeking confirmation by asking, "This is your mom?"

Clearly unsure how to respond, Pink carefully places the bag back down and continues with her performance, maintaining her professionalism despite the unexpected interruption.

Déjà vu: Harry struck again

It appears that Harry Styles simply can't catch a break. Once again, the singer was struck by a flying object while performing onstage.

In a flashback to 2022, during a concert in Los Angeles, videos began circulating on social media, capturing the moment when Styles was pelted with Skittles thrown by a fan.

In the shared video, he can be seen attempting to manage through the concert after flinching in pain.

Adele takes a stand, says "I f*****g dare you"

Joining the ranks of artists speaking out against this troubling trend, Adele recently addressed the issue head-on. Her plea to the audience came across as a stern warning rather than a simple request.

During a concert on July 1, as she prepared to distribute t-shirts using a cannon, Adele took a moment to acknowledge the recurring problem of fans throwing objects onstage.

In her confrontational approach, she didn't hold back, daring someone to engage in such behavior.

Adele directly stated, "Have you noticed how people are forgetting show etiquette and just throwing things onstage? Have you seen that? I dare you, I dare you to throw something at me. I'll kill you." While her choice of words may be strong, her intention is clear: she will not tolerate disrespectful behavior that jeopardizes her safety or that of others.
