Beyonce left dangling in the air mid concert as car prop malfunctions
Beyoncé was left dangling midair in a car while performing during the first Houston Cowboy Carter tour stop.
On Saturday, the US singer was catapulted into the air in a red car for the performance of her country hit 16 Carriages.
While the vehicle was supposed to make its way around the venue so fans who don't have floor seats could get a closer look at Beyoncé, the car began leaning to one side and came to a complete stop.
After finishing the first verse of the song, the mother-of-three yelled, 'Stop, stop, stop, stop' as she sat at a standstill above screaming fans below.
Beyonce's car prop malfunctioned during her show.
The singer had to be lowered to safety.
After crew members rushed over, the red car was lowered to the ground and Beyoncé was safely removed.
In true Beyoncé fashion, the pop star walked back over to the stage to finish belting out the song.
After videos of the incident went viral, her entertainment company, Parkwood, took to Instagram to explain what happened.
'Tonight in Houston, at NRG Stadium, a technical mishap caused the flying car, a prop Beyoncé uses to circle the stadium, and see her fans up close, to tilt,' the statement read.
'She was quickly lowered and no one was injured. The show continued without incident.'

Earlier this month, the Grammy winner effortlessly bounced a wardrobe malfunction while kicking off the London leg of her tour.
While performing her 2022 hit I'm That Girl, Beyoncé's metallic fringed chaps fell to the floor mid-dance move.
However, the singer handled it like a pro and slowly slid down to the floor during a music break to pick them back up.
One of her backup dancers then assisted in helping secure the pants so the show could go on.
Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter tour continues for a second night in her hometown on Sunday.

Orlando Bloom posts cryptic message after Katy Perry split
Don't miss out on the headlines from Hook Ups & Break Ups. Followed categories will be added to My News. Orlando Bloom is in his feelings. The actor, who has reportedly split from Katy Perry after nearly 10 years together, took to social media to share a cryptic message about a 'new beginning' just days after whispers of his break-up with the singer came to light. 'The important thing is to take that first step,' the actor wrote on his Instagram Story on Monday. 'Bravely overcoming one small fear gives you the courage to take on the next.' Bloom, 48, credited the quote as his 'daily encouragement' from Buddhist author Daisaku Ikeda. Orlando Bloom has shared a cryptic post that appears to allude to his split from Katy Perry. Picture: AFP. Before sharing Ikeda's quote, the Pirates of the Caribbean star also shared a quote from Buddha. 'Each day is a new beginning. What we do today is what matters the most,' the quote read, which Bloom soundtracked to James Quinn's A Gentle Sunlight. Bloom's moment of reflection comes just days after he partied solo at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's $50 million Venetian wedding. At the lavish nuptials, Bloom was seen linking up with Tom Brady and Leonardo DiCaprio. The group buddied up with the Kardashians and Sydney Sweeney at their hotel following the reception, TMZ reported. Over the weekend, Bloom and Sweeney, 27, were photographed taking a stroll in Venice together alongside Tom Brady. Perry and Bloom have ended their relationship after nearly 10 years together. Picture: Getty. And while Perry was not in attendance at the wedding, Sánchez made sure to let Perry know she was missed. After the singer, 40, insinuated she was in a good 'mood' on Instagram as her ex partied without her, Sánchez commented on the post, 'We miss you Katy,' alongside a heart emoji. Earlier this month, Page Six reported that Bloom's relationship with the 'California Gurls' singer was on the rocks. 'It's over,' the source said. On June 26, Us Weekly claimed the on-again, off-again couple had officially called it quits after nearly a decade together. The pair met in January 2016 at a Golden Globe Awards afterparty. Bloom ultimately popped the all-important question on Valentine's Day in 2019. They welcomed daughter Daisy the following August. The actor is also dad to son Flynn, 14, whom he shares with his ex-wife, Miranda Kerr. Perry, for her part, was previously married to Russell Brand from 2010 to 2012.

Huge blow for Channel 10 as 10 News+ attracts less viewers than The Project
Don't miss out on the headlines from TV. Followed categories will be added to My News. Network 10 received yet another disappointing blow after it's replacement for The Project scored less viewers in its timeslot than the axed show regularly attracted. 10 News+ had received an intense marketing blitz over the last two weeks as the network made its bid to win over new viewers with their promise of putting 'the truth first'. Sadly for Network 10, that promise wasn't enough to win over viewers, with a mere 291,000 tuning in on Monday evening. To put those numbers into perspective, 7News attracted 1.5 million viewers, with 9News close behind with 1.45 million. 10 News+ failed to attract many viewers on Monday night. Picture: 10 X SUBSCRIBER ONLY What really rubs salt in the wound is that the final episode of The Project scored almost 500,000 viewers on Friday evening. After shedding almost half its audience, it remains to be seen whether the network's gamble of cancelling The Project was the right decision. Viewers delivered their verdict on social media on Monday evening, with many labelling 10 News+ a 'Temu ACA'. 'You replaced the project with a Temu ACA not seeing @theprojecttv is incredibly depressing. 10news+ sucks!' remarked one viewer. The show attracted less viewers than The Project. Picture: 10. Another complained about the format of the new show, tweeting: 'Please no more long investigation reports it's 6pm! Much too heavy, much too serious, American looking set and awkward presentation.' 'This is proper @Channel7 style commercial JUNK. It's like watching a cross between Fox News and Anchorman. Why the silly news voices!? questioned another disgruntled viewer. One however, praised the show's lead story on convicted drug smuggler Debbie Voulgaris, who gave an exclusive interview from a Taiwan prison. 'Loving 10 news +, strong launch story. Is this the new Schapelle Corby story we all need to know about. 10 news should be very proud,' they wrote. Another added: 'That was a decent first show'. The news show's interview with the Prime Minister also sparked some viewer backlash, with journalists Denham Hitchcock and Amelia Brace being called out for their interviewing techniques, which saw the PM interrupted multiple times. 'Some ridiculous questions and hectoring tone from both hosts in this very disappointing interview with the PM,' ranted one. 'You replaced #theprojecttv for this tabloid junk? I'm turning this off!' complained another. 'This is trash, so dry and bland. Time for the project 2.0 and a game show in a prime time slot up against Home and Away. Good luck!' tweeted a third unimpressed viewer. While a fourth added: 'Oh dear. I thought I would give 10 News Plus a go. I feel like we have regressed 20 years!'
