Pugh had expressed her admiration for the group of people gathered around the panel just moments prior to being hit.

Addressing the crowd, she pointed out that the potency of this space emanates from the inaugural film. The audience responded with joyful encouragement.

Every day we went to the set, we were filled with that feeling. Now, it is an especially remarkable and heartwarming experience to be here for the second time. I hold a great deal of pride in this moment.

It's fortunate that the situation didn't escalate further, but if it persists, individuals may refuse to participate in live events due to potential risks to their well-being.

The occurrence that happened subsequent to the discussion panel is the most recent example of a growing pattern whereby famous individuals are being singled out while on stage.

Earlier this year, Harry Styles, who co-starred with Pugh in the 2022 dramatic movie Don't Worry Darling, experienced a moment of pain when a fan threw an item on stage during one of his performances and he was seen holding onto his face.

Adele, a famous singer, spoke out about this trend in an angry outburst during a concert in July. She used vulgar language to express her frustration.

The speaker addressed the crowd by inquiring, "Have any of you observed the decline in proper behavior during shows where individuals carelessly toss items onto the stage? Have you witnessed this?"

"I challenge you," she exclaimed. "I challenge you to throw something at me."

She made these remarks following an unusual incident at a Pink concert where a fan threw the ashes of their mother onto the stage. In another incident, a fan threw their phone at Bebe Rexha and injured her eye.
