One of Mario‘s fans may have taken “Let Me Love You” way too literally during a recent show … reaching in and rubbing his crotch mid-performance — and the R&B star clearly wasn’t having it.

The incident reportedly went down Saturday during Mario’s tour stop in Detroit at the Masonic Jack White Theatre … and in a now-viral clip, he’s seen passionately serenading the crowd, inching toward the edge of the stage when a front-row fan suddenly slides their hand right onto his crotch.
The fan lingers for a moment — fully cupping his private area — until Mario shoos them off and appears to gently scold them.
According to the woman who recorded the video, she says Mario was actually “pretty nice about it.”
To his credit, Mario doesn’t skip a beat and keeps belting a ballad … although he does take a few steps back from the crowd.
Bottom line … look, don’t touch — especially down there.
Mario is known for his smooth R&B tunes and electrifying performances, but things took a shocking turn at a recent show in Detroit. During his performance at the Masonic Jack White Theatre, a fan crossed the line by getting handsy with the singer.
In a now-viral video, Mario can be seen serenading the audience when a front-row fan boldly reaches out and grabs his crotch. The fan’s actions were met with a swift reaction from Mario, who promptly pushed the fan’s hand away and gave them a disapproving look.
The fan, seemingly undeterred, lingered for a moment before finally backing off. Despite the unexpected interruption, Mario maintained his composure and continued with his performance, albeit taking a step back from the edge of the stage.
The incident was captured on video by a concert-goer, who later shared the footage online. According to the witness, Mario handled the situation with grace and remained professional throughout the ordeal.
This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of boundaries and respect for performers. Fans should always remember that while they may admire and support their favorite artists, there are limits to how they should interact with them. It’s crucial to show appreciation from a distance and refrain from invasive or inappropriate behavior.
Mario’s handling of the situation showcases his professionalism and dedication to his craft. Despite the unwarranted intrusion, he stayed focused on delivering a memorable performance for his fans. Moving forward, it’s essential for concert-goers to remember that artists deserve to be treated with respect and admiration, rather than being subjected to unwanted advances.
