Overview

  • The fan, named McKenna, fainted during the interactive “Choose Your Own Adventure” segment just before Perry’s band began “The One That Got Away.”
  • Perry knelt beside McKenna as venue medical staff and EMTs attended to her and escorted her offstage on a stretcher.
  • She then led a prayer with the remaining onstage participants and encouraged the arena to keep McKenna in their thoughts.
  • While performing “Roar” on a giant butterfly prop later in the show, Perry confirmed to the crowd that McKenna was doing great.
  • The Lifetimes Tour, marking Perry’s first Michigan concert since 2017, continues with upcoming shows in Toronto.
