Beyoncé created another unforgettable moment during her Cowboy Carter Tour stop in her hometown of Houston, Texas, on June 28.
The 43-year-old star was mid-performance of “16 Carriages” when a stage prop nearly turned disastrous. Suspended above the crowd in a red car, Beyoncé startled fans as the vehicle suddenly tilted. She slid down the seat, narrowly avoiding a dangerous fall before thousands in her hometown.
Despite the scare, Beyoncé kept singing, showing remarkable composure. Prioritizing safety, she calmly signaled for the show to pause. Crew members quickly lowered the car, allowing her to step onto the stage without incident.
The tense moment displayed her professionalism and grace under pressure. Once safely on the ground, she briefly exited through the stage floor, only to return moments later to finish the performance.
When she reappeared, Beyoncé lightened the mood with humor and warmth. Smiling at the crowd, she said, “If I ever fall, I know y’all would catch me.”
The heartfelt comment drew loud cheers and eased any lingering tension. Beyoncé completed “16 Carriages” onstage, turning a technical mishap into a reminder of her resilience. The show marked the first of two Houston dates following a successful run across the UK and Europe.
