VIDEO: Flying car malfunctions at Beyonce concert in Houston stadium
A video shows a flying car used during Beyonce's concert at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas, experience a technical issue while the US singer is using it as a prop to circle the venue toward the end of her show. As the car starts to tilt, she is heard saying "Stop" repeatedly. "She was quickly lowered and no one was injured," according to her publicist. A T-shirt worn by Beyoncé during a Juneteenth performance on her "Cowboy Carter" tour has sparked a discussion over how Americans frame their history and caused a wave of criticism for the Houston-born superstar. The T-shirt worn during a concert in Paris featured images of the Buffalo Soldiers, who belonged to Black U.S. Army units active during the late 1800s and early 1900s. On the back was a lengthy description of the soldiers that included "their antagonists were the enemies of peace, order and settlement: warring Indians, bandits, cattle thieves, murderous gunmen, bootleggers, trespassers, and Mexican revolutionaries." Images of the shirt and videos of the performance are also featured on Beyoncé's website. As she prepares to return to the U.S. for performances in her hometown this weekend, fans and Indigenous influencers took to social media to criticize Beyoncé for wearing a shirt that frames Native Americans and Mexican revolutionaries as anything but the victims of American imperialism and for promoting anti-Indigenous language. A spokesperson for Beyoncé did not respond to a request for comment.
