Guy Penrod Shares Emotional Statement Following Deadly Texas Floods — Fans Are Rallying Around His Words.cc

Country star Luke Bryan is handling a concert mishap “like a champ.”

Bryan, 49, was in the middle of an encore performance of his song “Country Girl (Shake It For Me)” at the North Dakota State Fair, when someone in the crowd hurled an object at the stage and smacked Bryan directly in the face.

The moment was caught on camera by fans, with Bryan seen slightly recoiling after the hit. He flashed a quick look of surprise, but instead of stopping the show, the “American Idol” judge continued to perform as if nothing had happened.

“Poor Luke Bryan got hit in the face during his encore,” the caption on the fan video read on TikTok. “Carried on like a champ though.”

It’s still unclear what exactly hit the “One Margarita” singer, with some fans speculating it was a bracelet or phone accessory, but the incident immediately lit up social media.

While Bryan hasn’t addressed the moment publicly, his fans came to his defense and called out the growing trend of fans throwing objects at artists mid-performance.

“Shame on whoever did this,” another fan wrote.

Fox News Digital reached out to Bryan’s representatives for comment.

Bryan now joins a long list of musicians — including Harry Styles, Bebe Rexha and Kelsea Ballerini — who’ve been hit during live shows, sparking calls for tighter concert security and more respect from the crowd.

Ballerini was the victim of a similar incident later that year. The country star sang her song, “If You Go Down,” when she was hit in the eye by a bracelet.

Turning her head and eventually her entire body away from the audience, Ballerini was quickly attended to by one of her band members. After several moments, Ballerini walked off-stage.
