Lady Gaga's concert at Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro attracted 2.5 million attendees but was marred by a security threat linked to an anti-LGBTQ+ hate group. Just hours before the concert, police arrested a man for illegal firearm possession and a teenager for child pornography, connected to a plot to use explosives at the event. Despite this, the concert proceeded as planned, with Lady Gaga's representatives stating they received no prior warnings from authorities. The Police had opted not to inform organizers to prevent public panic, ensuring the event's success as the highest-attended concert by a female artist.
The police did not contact the event's organizers to avoid panic, despite an alleged plot to attack Lady Gaga's concert, which proceeded without disruption.
Lady Gaga's team stated that there were no known safety concerns prior to the concert and worked securely with law enforcement throughout the event.
