Morgan Wallen Gets Grabbed by Fan Again During Seattle Show
SEATTLE — Country star Morgan Wallen found himself in another tense moment with a fan over the weekend during his “I’m the Problem” Tour stop in Seattle. In a now-viral video taken from the crowd, Wallen is seen walking through an aisle of fans when one attendee grabs his arm — marking the second time in two weeks the singer has had to deal with fans getting physically too close during his shows.
Second Incident in Two Weeks
The altercation occurred during a portion of the concert when Wallen makes his way to a secondary B-stage through the crowd. As he handed out high-fives, one fan tugged on his arm. Wallen stopped and appeared to briefly address the individual before being ushered along by security. He then continued greeting fans, maintaining his composure despite visible irritation.
This marks the second such incident in recent days. Last week in Glendale, Arizona, Wallen had a similarly chaotic moment when fans threw items on stage in hopes of getting autographs, and another fan reportedly grabbed him as he made his way through the crowd. That night left Wallen visibly frustrated.
Tour Troubles in Arizona
During the Arizona performance, Wallen poured liquid from a gas can around the stage — a part of his set design — but ended up splashing front-row fans in the process. That chaotic first night in Glendale led him to say on stage, “I didn’t know if I was ever gonna come back to Arizona after that crowd last night.”
However, things improved the next night, with Wallen acknowledging the crowd had “changed his mind.”
Seattle Stop Draws Similar Energy
It’s unclear whether the Seattle incident happened on the first or second night of Wallen’s two-night stop in the city. Most dates on his “I’m the Problem” Tour include back-to-back shows. So far, the tour continues as scheduled and is set to run through mid-September, with no announced delays or changes stemming from the Seattle encounter.
Fan Reactions Mixed Online
Reactions across social media have been mixed. Some fans criticized the inappropriate behavior, emphasizing respect for the artist’s personal space. Others argued Wallen’s walk-throughs invite close contact. Still, the general consensus is that artists should not have to endure unexpected or unsafe interactions during performances.
Morgan Wallen’s 2025 Tour Momentum Continues
Despite the incidents, Wallen’s 2025 tour remains one of the biggest in country music, with multiple sold-out shows and a loyal fan base singing along to hits from his latest album, “I’m the Problem.”
