The 1975’s frontman Matty Healy shocked fans in Kentucky when he paused proceedings to have a tattoo inked onto his chest.
Making headlines for bizarre on-stage antics, the band’s At Their Very Best tour has featured some interesting moments during performances including its wacky set choices.
One piece of furniture seemed to garner all the news-worthy attention as Matty chose to regularly act out steamy moments on a black leather couch in the middle of the stage.
This case was no different as the singer was captured in fan footage lounging on the sofa smoking a cigarette while an artist tattooed the words ‘I’m a man’ onto his bare chest.
It was reported that the hitmaker’s actions later inspired a show ticket holder to have the same sentence inked on their skin.
Fans were quick to react to the disruption on Twitter with many asking what the marking spelled out.

One wrote: ‘u always think that he’s done it all, then he comes up with some sh*t [sic]’.
Another penned: ‘he’d be doing anything but singing [sic]’.
Tattoo-gate wasn’t the only episode that caused fans to look twice however, as earlier on in the tour Matty was videoed eating raw meat in the middle of the band’s set.
Not long after chowing down on the T-bone, the musician shared a kiss with fans while performing the collective’s 2014 track Robbers.
Matty recently caused upset online after he planted a wet one on a fan following her handwritten sign asking the performer to be her first kiss.

Before doing the deed, the singer asked to check her ID to which the concert-goer produced her driver’s license.
The 33-year-old then grabbed her face in his hands and gave the fan a smooch to remember.
His moves struck up debate online with people labelling the act ‘creepy’ despite his best efforts to ensure she was of age.
Alongside the footage, a user captioned her video with: ‘This is so sweet pls’, to which another responded: ‘If by sweet you mean creepy then yes I agree.’
Slamming the negative reaction, the fan that now boasted Matty as her first kiss came running to the star’s defence tweeting: ‘I did this, he saw it and brought me up, HE ASKED before he kissed me!’
