Devoted fans of the pop star are calling for that a person who breached a fence and touched the actress during the recent Wicked: For Good premiere be taken into custody or deported from Singapore.

A widely shared video shows the Australian man shoving aside photographers and lunging at Grande while the cast proceeded down a event pathway flanked by supporters.

Co-star Cynthia Erivo quickly guided the shocked star away from Mr Wen, who was spotted being led away of the gathering by security officers.

Mr Wen shared on Instagram recently that he was "let go after being arrested", though legal records indicated that he was scheduled to attend court on the following morning. It is unknown if he was charged.

Pattern of Event Invasions

This is not an isolated incident for Mr Wen, who labels himself a "Notorious Troublemaker", has invaded a performance. His Instagram feed contains clips of him interrupting other celebrity events, including rushing the platform at the pop singer's Sydney performance in June this year and in a comparable manner during The Chainsmokers performance in the same location last year.

"Steps should be implemented enforced against him as this is evidently a legal violation," commented an Instagram user, in a message to a video Mr Wen uploaded of his behavior.

"Oh wow so you do this a lot... how aren't you in jail?" one Instagram user remarked.

Supporters Express Concern Over Ariana's Safety

Numerous followers accused Mr Wen for "re-traumatising" Grande, who had revealed experiencing post-traumatic stress disorder after a suicide bomb attack at the finale of her 2017 performance in Manchester, claiming the lives of 22 people and harming numerous individuals.

"The star has endured numerous terrifying experiences... including the Manchester tragedy, and you believed breaching security was amusing?" commented another comment on Instagram.
