SZA was seen walking out of a meet and greet with fans after she was struck by an object.
In a clip of the incident, the “Kill Bill” singer can be seen signing things for a gathering of fans in Phoenix before her co-headlining concert with Kendrick Lamar.
While initially happy to sign everything, one fan launches a bracelet in the direction of the R&B superstar which strikes her quite sharply on the side of the head, causing her to recoil.
After being hit, SZA simply walks away from the group of fans, followed by her security as the crowd becomes disharmonious.
SZA and her team are yet to comment on the incident.
Away from fan incidents, SZA recently stepped up to defend Megan Thee Stallion from Tory Lanez and his legal team who have renewed their claims that the Houston Hottie is lying over being shot by the Canadian rapper.
In response to a video on Instagram poking holes in Lanez’s claims, SZA hit out at the attacks on Stallion, commenting: “The density !!!!! I’m actually SO shocked at the amount of ppl fully comfortable bullying a woman that’s proven to be a victim of assault ??! Like out loud where other ppl can see you ?? Lmao u finna be stupid OUTLOUD ?”
Megan has not yet responded to SZA’s support but had previously hit out at Lanez for continuing to pursue the case.
She said: “At what point are yall gonna stop making me have to re live being shot BY TORY !? At what point are Tory and yall FANS gonna stop lying ? Like how much is the check to keep harassing me? Why is this happening EVERY DAY?”
“One min him/ yall said I was never shot now yall letting him play in yall face AGAIN and say I was shot but it wasn’t him oh okay… ?!” Megan continued. “I’m sick of this shit LEAVE ME TF ALONE!!!! HE AINT DARE GET ON THAT STAND AND DENY HE SHOT ME AND THAT WAS HIS CHOICE BECAUSE HE KNOWS HE DID THAT SHIT! IDGAF ABT A BLOG OR A BOT!!! WHY IN TF WOULD ME … MEGAN THEE STALLION HAVE TO LIE ON THIS MF ABT SHOOTING ME!”

For a new Billboard video diary, the versatile musician walks viewers through his full routine as he got ready for the first FIFA World Cup Final halftime show on Sunday. The footage begins with his police escorted arrival and continues through the excitement of walking onto the field at New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium. It offers an honest look at everything that happened before and after the major performance.
Throughout the day, Burna enjoys several unforgettable encounters. He takes pictures with Shakira, his collaborator on the official 2026 FIFA World Cup anthem “Dai Dai.” The pair performed the track during Sunday’s halftime show, while it remains at the top of the Billboard Global 200 for a second week and leads the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart for a fourth week. Burna also catches up with streamer iShowSpeed, shares a hug with Justin Bieber and meets Ted Lasso star Jason Sudeikis, who surprised the audience by introducing Bieber. Once the greetings are over, Burna fits in one last rehearsal before heading out to perform.
The footage continues as Burna walks onto the field and joins the celebration. He looks thrilled when the set concludes, making his way through the players’ tunnel and returning backstage. There, he receives compliments from Chris Martin, who organized the halftime show and helped write the finale song “We Dance” alongside his Coldplay bandmates.
