7 times “Pyjama Man” Johnson Wen gatecrashed secure events<\/h2>\n

Johnson Wen, a 26-year-old unemployed Australian national, has built a reputation that feels almost unreal.<\/p>\n

Most people know him now as Pyjama Man — a self-styled prankster who seems oddly determined to breach every major event in the world.<\/p>\n

He isn’t subtle, and he isn’t slick, yet he repeatedly ends up stealing the spotlight on red carpets, stadiums, and even concerts with locked-down security.<\/p>\n

Here are seven of his most surreal crashes which span across three continents.<\/p>\n

1. ‘Wicked: For Good’ premiere at Universal Studios Singapore (13 Nov 2025)<\/h3>\n

The polished atmosphere of the ‘Wicked: For Good’ movie premiere in Singapore turned chaotic when a man in mismatched pyjamas vaulted the yellow carpet barrier.<\/p>\n

After spotting Ariana Grande, Wen rushed straight at her with frantic energy, catching everyone completely off guard.<\/p>\n

As his arm wrapped around Grande’s shoulder in a strange, jarring motion, her expression shifted instantly from delight to alarm.<\/p>\n

Grande’s co-star Cynthia Erivo even stepped in before security dragged Wen off the carpet.<\/p>\n

The incident sparked international outrage, with many questioning how he bypassed security.<\/p>\n

2. Katy Perry’s ‘The Lifetimes’ tour, Sydney (9 June 2025)<\/h3>\n

The mood at Accor Stadium in Sydney, Australia, earlier this year was of pure excitement as Katy Perry belted out hit after hit.<\/p>\n

It was a classic stadium tour moment until a figure climbed onto the stage.<\/p>\n

Wen ran straight toward Perry, almost skipping with excitement.<\/p>\n

When he grabbed her shoulder, she glanced at him for a second before moving away.<\/p>\n

Wen then began doing the Fortnight “Floss” dance move before security tackled him.<\/p>\n

Later, the 26-year-old Australian told reporters he “was about to do extra Fortnite moves but security got there too quick”.<\/p>\n

According to 9news, by that point, he had received an estimated AUD$20,000 (S$17,000) in fines for stage invasions.<\/p>\n

3. The Chainsmokers’ set at Palm Tree Music Festival, Sydney (6 Dec 2024)<\/h3>\n

At the Palm Tree Music Festival last December, Wen managed to get on stage for his few seconds in the limelight.<\/p>\n

He did a few moves of the “Gangnam Style” dance before security swiped his feet to make him fall.<\/p>\n

\n

Unfazed, he got up and even seemed to bump shoulders with one of the musicians as he asked the crowd to cheer louder.<\/p>\n

Wen was eventually pushed off stage towards the security waiting below.<\/p>\n

4. The Weeknd’s ‘After Hours Til Dawn’ Tour, Melbourne (5 Oct 2024)<\/h3>\n

Marvel Stadium in Melbourne, Australia, blazed with red lights as The Weeknd performed “Out of Time” to a packed arena.<\/p>\n

Out of the blue, a man slipped onto the stage like a glitch in the system, evading the security that reached for him.<\/p>\n

\n

He sprinted across the stage, heading straight for the artiste, who somewhat cowered in shock.<\/p>\n

For a moment, the music drowned the tension.<\/p>\n

Then the security team stepped in, dragging Wen off before he could get close again.<\/p>\n

5. Men’s 100m Final, Paris 2024 Summer Olympics (4 Aug 2024)<\/h3>\n

Wen also tried to breach one of the world’s most tightly guarded sporting moments — the men’s 100m final at the 2024 Paris Olympics.<\/p>\n

Not caring that he would interrupt an event watched by millions, Wen sprinted toward the track moments before the race began.<\/p>\n

However, guards intercepted him almost immediately.<\/p>\n

Although the race was delayed, it was unclear whether Wen’s failed disruption had caused it.<\/p>\n

Still, the stunt added fuel to his growing reputation.<\/p>\n

6. ICC Cricket World Cup Final, India vs Australia (19 Nov 2023)<\/h3>\n

The Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, India, was filled with tension as India faced Australia in one of cricket’s biggest matches in November 2023.<\/p>\n

The atmosphere was electric and every seat trembled with anticipation — when a lone figure sprinted across the pitch.<\/p>\n

Wen ran directly into the centre of the action, waving his arms and shouting, causing the stunned players to pause the game.<\/p>\n

\n

He even managed to put his arm around an Indian cricketer Virat Kohli, who immediately shrugged him off.<\/p>\n

\n

He later was heard saying, “I entered (the field) to meet Virat Kohli“.<\/p>\n

7. FIFA Women’s World Cup Final, England vs Spain (20 Aug 2023)<\/h3>\n

In August 2023, Sydney’s Stadium Australia buzzed with excitement as England and Spain battled for the FIFA Women’s World Cup title.<\/p>\n

However, the football match was interrupted when Wen charged onto the pitch after darting past stewards.<\/p>\n

He tripped before reaching the players, as an England player took a few steps back in shock.<\/p>\n

\n

Security then tackled him before bringing him out of the pitch.<\/p>\n

According to Wandsworth Times, BBC commentator Robyn Cowan said that it had been “dealt with swiftly”.<\/p>\n

“They know their rugby around this part of the world, not a bad tackle,” his co-commentator Rachel Brown-Finnis added.<\/p>\n

\n

The stunt became one of Wen’s earliest widely known intrusions, hinting at everything that would come after.<\/p>\n

‘Pyjama Man’ antics follow a disturbing pattern<\/h3>\n

Across concerts, sporting events, and film premieres, Wen shows the same behaviour: sudden dashes, bizarre confidence, and a willingness to burst into spaces protected by layers of security.<\/p>\n

His online posts frame these moments as playful stunts but many viewers disagree.<\/p>\n

The stakes rise with every incident, and following his latest antics in Singapore, Wen could face up to three months in jail.<\/p>\n

Wen was arrested and charged in court on 14 Nov with public nuisance.<\/p>\n

He told the court that he would be pleading guilty via a video link from remand.<\/p>\n
