In a terrifying moment that was watched by thousands of fans and caught on camera, singer Katy Perry narrowly escaped a prop malfunction while performing during a concert in San Francisco on Friday.


Perry, 40, was sitting on a flying butterfly prop while performing to her song, Roar, when it suddenly malfunctioned mid-air, dropping slightly and forcing her to slip in her seat.


In a clip posted on X, the singer can be seen holding onto the prop and looking visibly scared as she looks down at the audience, where she would have fallen if the prop had given way.
