Incident During Morgan Wallen’s Concert

Morgan Wallen was seen pulling a phone from a worker’s hand and forcefully tossing it across the stage during a concert, marking another episode of his intense on-stage behavior.

A video captured by a fan at the show on Friday at Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh has been circulating online. This incident happened just a week after Wallen dramatically flipped a piano upside down during his performance in Denver.

In the video, Wallen approaches a security guard wearing a yellow t-shirt, as reported by TMZ, and leans in to sing into the phone they were holding. It appeared to be a light moment — but then things took a turn. After the close-up, he suddenly yanked the phone from the guard’s grip and threw it away.

TMZ’s sources noted that witnesses claim the phone didn’t belong to the security guard and wasn’t intended for their own recordings. They suggested the guard was filming for an audience member, but Wallen clearly didn’t care about that detail. Something about the situation seemed to upset him, leading to the phone being discarded quite far.

Wallen has recently had a few unusual moments during performances. On May 29, he seemed frustrated with a technical issue and chose to give an a cappella rendition instead. In a fit of irritation, he walked over to the piano and flipped it upside down, leading to a loud crash as it hit the stage.

Later, he took to social media to poke fun at that incident.

The prominent country artist also had to cancel his second concert in Pittsburgh over weather worries. This decision sparked a backlash from fans venting online, especially when the weather turned out to be fine that day.
