Overview
- Singapore’s Immigration and Checkpoints Authority deported Australian national Johnson Wen to Australia and barred his future entry, according to reports cited by BBC.
- Wen had been convicted of causing a public disturbance and received a nine-day jail sentence in the days after the incident.
- During the November 13 premiere, he vaulted a barrier toward Ariana Grande before co-star Cynthia Erivo pulled him away, and security halted a second attempt.
- Authorities and media identified the 26-year-old as an online provocateur known as “Pyjama Man,” with a record of disrupting celebrity events.
- Grande has not commented publicly, while Erivo said she acted to keep her friend safe as fans voiced concern given Grande’s past PTSD after the 2017 Manchester attack.
