An Australian man known online for confronting celebrities has been kicked out of Lady Gaga\u2019s latest concert in Brisbane after being spotted in the crowd by eagle-eyed fans.<\/p>\n

Johnson Wen, also known as \u201cPyjama Man\u201d, was escorted out of Suncorp Stadium on Tuesday before the Mayhem Ball tour stop officially began.<\/p>\n

It comes just three weeks after Wen was jailed for nine days in Singapore after leaping a barricade at a Wicked: For Good premiere and lunging at Ariana Grande.<\/p>\n

According to videos shared on social media, Wen attempted to disguise himself with a wig, sunglasses and a stick-on moustache, but the costume did little to fool concertgoers, who alerted security over fears of another stunt.<\/p>\n

In one clip, fans can be heard shouting for security to remove him.<\/p>\n

\u201cGet him out, don\u2019t even risk it,\u201d one person yelled. \u201cIf he jumps on that f…ing stage, I swear.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s wearing some dumb-ass facade,\u201d another person says before Wen, smiling, is escorted out to loud cheers.<\/p>\n

\u201cGet him out of here!\u201d another shouted as he was walked out of the venue.<\/p>\n

Shortly after, Wen posted on his Instagram Story, \u201cGot kicked out of Lady Gaga concert! The show doesn\u2019t start till 8 p.m.! The early fans were booing me.\u201d<\/p>\n

The serial pest\u2019s stunts have escalated from nuisance to outright security breaches at major global events. Beyond the Ariana Grande incident in Singapore, where he jumped over a barricade and charged at the performer, Wen has repeatedly crashed red carpets and ambushed celebrities.<\/p>\n

In August, he stormed the stage at The Weeknd\u2019s Melbourne concert, and just a month earlier was dragged away by security after interrupting The Chainsmokers\u2019 show in Sydney.<\/p>\n

He also confronted Katy Perry during her Sydney performance in June, approaching the pop star mid-show.<\/p>\n

Beyond concerts and premieres, Wen has disrupted major sporting events too, including running onto the track during the 100m final at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games and intruding at the 2023 FIFA Women\u2019s World Cup.<\/p>\n

Fans online were equally outraged by his return after a short stint in a Singaporean jail.<\/p>\n

\u201cHonestly the arrogance of him\/his team trying to pull this off so soon after the Wicked incident is crazy,\u201d one user wrote on X.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat is this guy\u2019s deal? How does he get in\/have the funds?\u201d wrote another.<\/p>\n

A third user said, \u201cI love whoever snitched on him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fans are now watching closely to see whether Wen will attempt to gain entry at Lady Gaga\u2019s next show in Sydney on Friday, December 12.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"An Australian man known online for confronting celebrities has been kicked out of Lady Gaga\u2019s latest concert in…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":338235,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[64,63,2331,134],"class_list":["post-338234","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-culture","tag-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/338234","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=338234"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/338234\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/338235"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=338234"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=338234"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=338234"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
