An Ava Max fan was escorted off stage by security after slapping the popstar and leaving her injured.
The footage shows the 29-year-old dancing on stage during one of her LA shows. The star was dressed in a blue and black shimmery two-piece.
It was then that a man ran on stage and slapped the singer mid-performance. Security dragged him away, as Max continued to finish her song.
Early Wednesday morning, Max addressed the incident on Twitter, writing: “He slapped me so hard that he scratched the inside of my eye. He’s never coming to a show again thank you to the fans for being spectacular tonight in LA though!!”
The footage soon went viral across Twitter, with many fans outraged and concerned for the ‘Sweet but Psycho’ singer.
“So first a man throws a phone a Bebe Rhexa’s face because he ‘thought it would be funny, and now a man jumps on stage and slaps ava max? wtf is wrong with men,” one person wrote, while another asked: “Are people okay? like what in the actual f***?”
“This is behaviour is actually heartbreaking omg,” a third added. “She handled it so well too by still ending the show.”
Neither representatives for Max nor the Los Angeles Police Department immediately responded to requests for comment.
Max has had several hits including “Sweet but Psycho,” which reached No. 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 1 in the UK, “Kings & Queens,” and “The Motto” with Tiësto.
The incident occurred just days after Rexha was taken to hospital after a man threw a phone at the stage, striking her in the head.
