Kelly Rowland Hilariously Loses It After Forgetting Lyrics To Destiny's Child Song During Show
This past weekend, the tour pit-stopped for a performance in Indianapolis, but it was not the show anyone was expecting. For true Rowland fans, it might have been even better.
When Rowland performs, she typically sings a few songs that throw fans back to the Destiny's Child days, and the night in Indianapolis was no exception. But with a few technical difficulties, Rowland was thrown off and completely forgot the lyrics.
While performing "Cater 2 U," the wrong background track was played, so she accidentally started singing during the part when Beyoncé would open the number.
She laughed at herself and said:
"Oh no, that's not my verse."
While waiting, she appeared to laugh at herself, exclaiming:
"I f**ked that up!"
But by this point, Rowland had been totally derailed, so when she tried to come in for the second verse, she blanked:
"What's the verse?"
Audience members could be heard singing while Rowland went back and forth between struggling, laughing at herself, and having a good time on stage.
You can watch the first video here:
While she might have been embarrassed for a moment, Rowland clearly decided to lean into the humor of the moment and laughed at herself, questioning whether or not she knew the lyrics before continuing on.
Here is the same moment from another angle:
From this angle, Rowland is visibly trying to get back on track and continue singing, engaging with the audience while she tries to reorient.
The performance was met with a mixture of understanding, laughter, and criticism.
Truth be told, attending performances is incredibly expensive these days, so audiences should be able to expect that the performers they're paying to see will be properly prepared.
That being said, we're human, and we all make mistakes. If we can forget what we were saying mid-sentence or what we walked into a room to get, it should be understandable that even a seasoned performer might mess up from time to time, especially when there are technical difficulties.
Most viewers were understanding and chose to laugh right along with Rowland.

Though this might have thrown some performers off and ruined the rest of the night for them, Rowland likely did the best thing by laughing it off and moving on with the performance. While attending a concert is expensive, life doesn't have to be that serious, and sometimes it's better to just laugh at our mistakes.
Emma Stone's New Movie Just Forced People To Shave Their Heads To See 'Bald-Only' Early Screening
The latest Lanthimos-directed film features conspiracy theory-obsessed beekeeper Teddy (Jesse Plemons) and his cousin (Aidan Delbis), who kidnap a high-powered executive played by Emma Stone. The duo are convinced the CEO is an alien sent to destroy Earth.
At one point, they shave Stone's character's head—which Stone did in real life for her fourth film with Lanthimos. Stone won the Academy Award for Poor Things, her second project with the Greek filmmaker.
But shave your head for a movie ticket? That's a really big ask for a first date.
On October 17, images of Emma Stone from Bugonia appeared on the "Do L.A." Instagram account with the caption:
"Are you bald, or willing to shave your head? On Monday, 10/20, head to @theculvertheater for a FREE advanced screening of @bugoniafilm - the new @focusfeatures fever dream from Yorgos Lanthimos, starring Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons"
"Have hair? A barber will be on-site starting at 6PM to shave it all off. Screening starts at 8PM. This is real. And yes, part of it will be filmed."
On the Do L.A. website, the details were much the same, including the detail that:
"Tickets are FREE!"

People came and got shaved.

But not everyone was sure the price of admission—for the not previously bald—was worth it.
Redditor peachgothlover—a film critic—cried foul on Reddit, posting a photo from the event captioned:
"Some people at the all-bald screening of Bugonia are NOT bald!"
"Despite being bald being a requirement to get in, people with bald caps, partial hair, and full on hair have been admitted. Is this alright? Or a crime against art? Maybe even humanity?"
Apparently, time became a factor.

Some predicted what would happen with only two hours to shave an audience.
Stone herself weighed in on the publicity stunt, telling The Hollywood Reporter:
"I just assume that it’s people who already wanted to shave their heads and were like, ‘OK, I could just do that at home or I could just see a movie right after,’ you know what I mean?"
"It’s a good time. It’s just a good time if you’re already wanting to shave your head.”
