Musicians often have to deal with annoying fans, but they are usually the human kind, not wind machines, and certainly not onstage.

Beyoncé was singing her song “Halo” at a concert in Montreal on Monday when a fan behind her sucked her long tresses into its blades. The singer kept pushing through the song, as frantic stage hands and security guaruds worked to free her. She never missed a beat.

Later, she made light of what seemed to be an embarrassing moment for a performer known for her work ethic and professionalism; she posted a picture of a hand-written note on Instagram that seemed to be a parody of “Halo” lyrics. “Gravity can’t begiiiiiiin to pull me out of the fan again / I felt my hair was yankiiiiiiin / From the fan that’s always hatiiiiiiiin,” she wrote.

“I got snatched,” she added.
