Infamous Stage Crasher Escorted Out at Lady Gaga Concert
The attempted stunt was the latest for the Pyjama Man, who’s targeted Katy Perry and Ariana Grande, among others.

The internet’s most persistent concert crasher has been stopped before he could make it onstage.
Johnson Wen, known online as “Pyjama Man,” was apprehended by security at Lady Gaga’s Mayhem Ball stop in Brisbane, Australia, after attempting to enter the venue in a disguise and once again get close to a major pop star.
Footage circulating online shows Wen being removed from the venue in handcuffs, marking his latest thwarted attempt targeting celebs.
Wen has built notoriety over the past year or so for repeatedly rushing performers in public spaces. Sometimes it’s at a concert and sometimes it’s even more unhinged. Most recently, he was charged for trying to tackle Ariana Grande at the Wicked: For Good premiere red carpet in Singapore.
Following that confrontation, Wen was charged on Nov. 14 with being a public nuisance, served nine days in prison, and was deported back to Australia.

And then Wen set his sights on Gaga.
Because his track record has become well known online, fans and venue staff were already on alert when a “Do Not Enter” list circulated on social media featuring his photo. But that warning alone didn’t stop him from trying. Wen arrived at the Brisbane show in what witnesses described as an “awful disguise,” hoping to slip past security before the concert began. His attempt failed almost immediately.
Whether his actions seem unhinged doesn’t seem bother him. In an Instagram Story, Wen wrote, “Got kicked out of Lady Gaga concert. The show doesn’t start till 8pm. The early fans were booing me.”
A fan who attended the show credited quick crowd action for his swift removal.
“Many finger snaps to the girl in EE who got security and gave them a description of that fuckin weirdo so they could legit just wait for his stupid disguise to try to get in," @JSmith92 wrote on X. “Actual mental help is needed for that man.”
The Brisbane incident follows similar encounters involving Katy Perry and The Weeknd, both of whom Wen previously targeted with stage-rushing attempts.
