Monica Stops Fight At Her Concert: Video

Monica does not want you fighting at her shows, especially not when she’s singing a love song. The Grammy-winning icon had to shut down an altercation between two fans at her show on April 1 in D.C. She was in the middle of singing her acclaimed 1995 ballad “Why I Love You So Much” when the spat broke out. It appears that she didn’t realize what was happening at first, but it soon became impossible to ignore. Unfortunately for patrons who were simply there to enjoy the show, Monica had to stop the song to say something to the two women.

After signaling to the DJ to stop the backing track, the singer spoke directly to the concertgoers involved. “Come on now, I’m singing a love song. I ain’t singing ‘Knuck If You Buck,’ baby, calm that shit down.” However, not even Monica could get the two to stop, and their confrontation continued. In an attempt to return peace to the crowd, the R&B icon tried to do one of the women involved a solid. “Somebody take her, get her a drink on me. Calm down,” she said.

After Monica couldn’t stop the conflict between the fans, she had to tell security to remove them. The other audience members appeared pleased as the mood killers were escorted from the venue. While they left, the singer dedicated a performance of her 2003 single “So Gone” to the women. As it turns out, Monica herself is no stranger to physical altercations. During a now infamous performance of their 1998 single, “The Boy Is Mine,” she and Brandy seemed extremely tense.

It was noticeable at the time, and it seems even more obvious watching it now. Especially considering we know that Monica had punched Brandy in the face directly before the two performed. It’s a piece of pop culture history that is now the stuff of legend. Luckily, the pair have since quashed their beef, and have even gone on to show each other love. What do you think about the altercation in the video? Was it was serious enough to warrant tossing the fans out? Let us know in the comments.
