SZA had fans concerned just last week when she nearly tipped and fell over one of the backup dancers during her ongoing Grand National Tour with Mustard and Kendrick Lamar.

At the time, the trio had their first stop in Minneapolis on Saturday, April 19, and during her SOS performance of the track Diamond Boy (DTM), she danced sensually with a man sporting a bug motif. At one point, her foot seems to have gotten stuck behind his, causing them to momentarily lose their balance. However, they quickly regained it and carried on with the show.

The moment was caught on camera by hundreds of fans, several of whom took to social media, making it go viral. Notably, though, the incident didn't impact her vocal performance.

The songstress has also been making waves with her No Beauty cosmetics line, which she launched ahead of the Grand National Tour.

"This wasn’t about jumping into beauty," she expressed, as reported by Hot New Hip Hop. "It was about creating what I needed—something that could last through a show, a date, a full conversation. Nothing I found gave me that and still kept my lips soft. I might not know a lot about everything, but I know lips. Not Beauty is simply what worked for me, and now I’m sharing it."

It remains to be seen what fans can expect with each pit stop the trio makes along their ongoing tour.
