After fans on social media speculated that a concertgoer at Kahan’s Philadelphia show June 26 had defecated on the floor, the singer seemingly addressed the situation. 

“If you have to poop at a show please dear god just go to the bathroom lmao,” Kahan wrote in a June 27 post on X. “I’ve pooped my pants as much as the next 29 year old but you guys gotta understand there’s a venue worker out there with a 1000 yard stare after dealing with that.”

Trying to make light of the situation that took place at his Citizens Bank Park performance, Kahan added in a follow-up post, “I s--t myself onstage in Charlottesville but that’s because I am dedicated to my craft.”

Meanwhile, the alleged incident inspired many fans to detail their issue with concertgoing behavior. 

“No song is worth pooping on the ground for,” one fan on Reddit wrote. “I love noah as much as the next person but this is insanity."

Another added, “this is why I don’t f--k with the pit.” 

“I love being close and do foolish things to acquire floor tickets,” the fan continued, “but I am simply not standing in another adult’s piss or s--t while also desperately having to pee for 4 hours just to get a good view.”

Kahan is not the only singer as of late to address a smelly circumstance. Olivia Rodrigo recently admitted that she dealt with similar situations during some of her festival performances. 

“I have been to certain concerts and certain festivals where people wear diapers so that they can be front row of the show,” Rodrigo shared during a June 18 appearance on KISS radio show. “That's been an experience of a performer that I have smelled and experienced.”

It’s just one mishap that plagues performers at concerts. Keep reading for more singers who have experienced shocking concert moments…

During his finale performance of "Country Girl (Shake It For Me)" at the North Dakota State Fair in 2025, the American Idol judge was pelted with a flying object. However, the musician took it in stride, finishing the song without missing a beat. 

The Jonas Brothers member had to send out an S.O.S and ask fans to stop throwing things on stage after two bracelets almost hit him at a California stop on the group's tour in 2023. 

In case it wasn't clear, Cardi B does not like it like that. When a front row patron splashed their drink on the performer mid-set at Drai's Beachclub in Las Vegas July 2023, she responded by throwing her microphone. The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department said in a statement that an unidentified woman reported a battery case the day after the concert, but noted no arrest or citations have been issued. In August 2023, Cardi's lawyers told TMZ that police informed them no charges would be filed against the singer.

Baby, Bebe Rexha is gonna have the best f--kin' night of her life no matter what happens. Struck in the face when a man at her June 2023 show in NYC threw a phone, she later posted a photo of her injured eye, writing, "I'm good."Todd A Spodek, a lawyer for Nicolas Malvagna, who was arrested and charged with assault, told TMZ, "As a fan, Mr. Malvagna's sole intention was to have Ms. Rexha take photos with his phone, and return it as a keepsake. It was never his intention to injure Ms. RexHa."

Kelsea Ballerini didn't find it all that charming when someone tossed jewelry up on stage during a June 2023 performance in Idaho. "Someone threw a bracelet, it hit me in the eyes," she wrote on Instagram Stories days later, "and it more so just scared me than hurt me."

Listen, she's not that sweet. Ava Max had words for the man who assaulted her during an L.A. performance in June 2023. "He slapped me so hard that he scratched the inside of my eye," the "Sweet but Psycho" singer wrote on Twitter. "He's never coming to a show again."

Pink thought the fan who randomly passed her a wheel of Brie while she was singing at at London's British Summer Time Festival in 2023 was kinda grate. "What the f--k," the musician said, as she reached for the dairy. "I wanna kiss you on the mouth."But just give us a reason for why another fan tossed a bag of ashes the very next day. "This is your mom?" the "What About Us" singer asked. "I don't know how to feel about this."

A sign of the times? Harry Styles had to get away from numerous flying objects during his Love on Tour, including, inexplicably, a handful of Skittles at a 2022 show in Los Angeles. A rep for the taste the rainbow brand later tweeted, "Didn't think I needed to say this: Please don't throw Skittles."

What a boob. As Billie Eilish sang "Lost Cause" at a February 2022 show, one fan tossed a set of false boobs at her. But proving that she's, uh, breast under pressure, the seven-time Grammy winner flung them back into the crowd and kept going. 

Uh, guys, he warned you. Moments after Kid Cudi told the crowd at his 2022 Rolling Loud set, "Yo, I'm going to walk off this stage, if y'all throw one more f--king thing up here, I will leave," he was pegged with yet another object. So he left. 

Arianators were left feeling sour after Ariana Grande was beaned with a lemon while headlining Coachella in 2019. And though the singer was definitely not so into it, into it, into it, she brushed off the fruit, telling the crowd, "One of y'all threw a lemon at me, s--t."
