AceShowbiz - During a concert in Dallas on Saturday night, November 2, Morrissey's performance was abruptly ended after multiple fans rushed the stage. The incident began during the encore performance of "First of the Gang to Die" when a young woman casually jumped on stage to hug the singer. Despite security's initial attempt to control the situation, a surge of overeager fans followed suit, prompting security to intervene.

Amidst the chaos, one security guard sustained a leg injury while attempting to restrain the crowd. Morrissey found himself surrounded by fans and was eventually escorted off stage by security while the band continued to play the encore song.

According to concert sources, it is not uncommon for fans to rush the stage at Morrissey's shows, as it has become a "rite of passage" for dedicated admirers. However, the incident on Saturday was described as particularly chaotic, leading to a hasty conclusion of the performance.

Morrissey's long-time fans express deep admiration through physical contact, viewing it as a way to connect with the artist. However, the incident raised concerns about safety and the potential for disrespectful behavior toward the performer.

The former frontman of The Smiths has been known for his dramatic stage presence and wry lyrics. After leaving the band, he released 13 solo studio albums, with a 14th album, "Without Music the World Dies," pending.

Despite the incident, Morrissey's North American tour is scheduled to continue, with the next show set for Monday in Little Rock, Arkansas. The tour will end on November 23 in Waukegan, Illinois.
