Independent of the artist, I find flying props like that (or make artists float or fly) very very cringe

There is no way she would naturally continue performing and putting her mic out like that while the thing is midway to falling! Its like she knew this was gonna happen?

And these flying horses and butterflies look so ugly and not necessary, if you are gonna risk it, atleast make it worth it like P!nk.

these things have multiple connections and multiple failsafes, so she knows she isn't going to actually fall

It must have been heart-stopping for her when it dropped like that. If it had landed on those people underneath, there would've been pandemonium. Nothing's gone wrong with it all this time so I don't know what went wrong now. I think this is one of the parts of this show that's actually pretty cool and I'd love for Gaga to do something similar so she can get right up among the crowd so you can get close to her even if you're sitting. But safety standards have to be of the highest measure. Hell, some stage crew have been injured during concert set-ups.

Wasn't there a malfunction with another hanging thing on her show a few weeks ago? I'm honestly glad Gaga didn't add anything like this to her show. They're amazing but the risks are not worth it, to the performers and to the public. :wtf:

Can I vanish into a cheeseburger pizza?

For those mentioning it, Gaga did do flying props for Enigma ("Just Dance" when she entered the theatre by flying down, and "Paparazzi" in the flying basket thingie). They're fun and are a great way for people in the balcony seats to get close to the artist, but when they malfunction, it's scary and dangerous. Glad Katy and everyone else was okay.

Even her props can't take it anymore.

It's hard to light a candle, easy to curse the dark instead.

I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.

Honestly, I'd be willing to bet P!nk has less accidents (besides pulled muscles etc) precisely because she doesn't rely heavily on these massive props and actually focuses on the performance itself.
 
She primarily uses actual circus performance set ups (and has done loads of gymnastics & circus training over the years) and her props for performances like Sober on the Funhouse tour/Truth About Love Tour or Try on her Summer Carnival tour in 2024 are all pretty standard cirque du solei style props. She even gets actual trained crews and dancers in for these specific things (like the Trustfall dancers being a specific troupe that focuses on that trampolining). 

I'd be willing to be Katy/Beyonce etc, given the props they're using have just used their usual touring procedures and teams. 
 

Pink was literally dragged off the stage from the side in Germany so she has definitely had her issues too.
