The band performed at the singer’s hometown of Newcastle on Friday (May 31) night but things took a turn as she was almost yanked from the stage by an overzealous fan.

The shocked singer was saved from falling off the stage by a member of security staff. An over enthusiastic audience member appeared to almost pull her from the runway at the centre of Girls Aloud stage at the Utilita Arena.

As fans started going wild for the band during their set, things nearly went wrong for the pop star. It happened as Cheryl held out her hand to a fan in one of the VIP pits right near the front of the stage, and they appeared to take it a bit too far.

Luckily security stepped in and prevented her from falling. Fans at the show were quick to post about the incident on X, formerly known as X, with one saying: “Some bloke tried to yank Cheryl off stage during Girls Aloud in Newcastle tonight “To the person who tried to pull Cheryl off the stage at Girls Aloud in Newcastle tonight, you are NOT a fan,no real fan would ever dream of doing something so terrible.”

The group kicked off their comeback tour last month. In their opening show in Dublin they had fans in tears as they duetted with their late bandmate Sarah Harding from beyond the grave. During the show, they made several references to her and showed footage of her on huge screens behind the stage.

It was their first time performing since she passed away following a cancer battle in 2021. In the encore, they sang their 2008 single The Promise and had Sarah sing her verse. But it was their cover of I’ll Stand By You, which they had a No1 with in 2004, which had fans in tears.

Nadine explained: “This next one we’re going to do really is a duet. We were looking through things to do and this song that we’re going to do, it’s Sarah singing the whole song. So we’re going to do a duet with Sarah tonight. It’ll be Sarah and it’ll be us and it’ll be you. Let’s all do this together.”
