The man who was jailed for causing a public nuisance after accosting Ariana Grande at a Wicked: For Good premiere has been thrown out of a Lady Gaga concert.

Johnson Wen – known online as ‘Pyjama Man’ – was reportedly banned from Mother Monster’s Australian concerts as part of her Mayhem Ball tour.

On Tuesday (9 December) Wen posted on his Instagram page saying he’d been “kicked out” of Gaga’s gig at the Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane.

“The early fans were booing me,” Wen added to his Instagram story post.

Footage on social media shows Wen being identified by the venues security staff and escorted out.

Those filming can be heard cheering and identifying him as “the guy that tackled Ariana” referring to Wen’s accosting of the Wicked: For Good star at the film’s Singapore premiere in November.

For that he was arrested, charged with causing a public nuisance, and jailed for nine days. During his sentencing Wen told the judge he wouldn’t do it again, having already caused similar disturbances at Katy Perry and The Weeknd concerts.

@pinknews A man who grabbed Ariana Grande at the 'Wicked' premiere in Singapore has been jailed for nine days for public nuisance. Johnson Wen, 26, was found guilty of the incident, which occurred last Thursday November 13. The court said: "You seem to be attention-seeking, thinking only of yourself and not the safety of others when committing these acts." "It does not appear that you had faced any sort of consequences for your past acts, and perhaps you thought that the same will occur here, that is to say, you would have suffered no consequences for the same acts here." #wickedpremiere #singapore #arianagrande #johnsonwen #lgbtqia ♬ ■ News News-Drone-IT-AI(963995) – ImoKenpi-Dou

Before the show, footage circulated social media showing security with papers featuring Wen’s picture and instructing them not to be let him in.

When Wen was sentenced in November, Judge Christopher Goh outlined: “You should be mindful that there are always consequences for one’s actions.

“You seem to be attention-seeking, thinking only of yourself, and not the safety of others, when committing these acts.”
