Music executive Scooter Braun shared an instagram story where Max is seen holding a bottle of beer over her injured eye backstage.
The loyal fanbase of the 29 year-old pop star have showered support upon the artist on twitter. A particular person, who has worked in the past as a bouncer, said “I don’t know this woman’s music, but I was a bouncer roadie for Soundgarden back in my college days. You need better security, we’d have never let the guy get a 2nd foot on stage.” However, there hasn’t been any official statement about the role of security personnel during the incident.
