Noah Kahan has turned an awkward fan incident into a viral moment, after an audience member reportedly defecated during his Philadelphia concert. The singer addressed the episode at subsequent shows, including a Toronto performance and a Madison Square Garden gig, where he made fans swear an oath not to repeat the behavior.
According to Stereogum, Kahan joked about the incident at his Toronto show, urging fans to use the bathroom. The outlet noted that the remark drew laughter from the crowd and briefly referenced a similar episode at a Turnstile concert in 2021.
At Madison Square Garden, Kahan took a more interactive approach. As Vulture reported, he made the audience swear an oath not to "shit their pants" at his shows. The publication described how the singer transformed an uncomfortable moment into a humorous, viral interaction.
