Fan gets on stage with Macklemore not realizing she's wanted by police and immediately gets arrested

Now that is a concert to remember...

A fan was living her best life performing with rapper Macklemore on stage at a festival before the boys in blue came to take her away for an outstanding arrest warrant.

However you look at it, good or bad, it makes for quite the epic story.

One moment you are on stage in front of thousands performing just like you had in your bedroom the night before and the next you are being led away by police.

In a story straight out of a sitcom, a woman was arrested immediately after performing at Lovestream festival with Macklemore in Slovakia on Sunday, August 18.

Now, it isn't because of what she did on stage or anything even related to the performance but an outstanding arrest she had. I can only imagine what you would have to do on stage to get arrested immediately after... in fact, I don't want to imagine.

The fan was invited up on stage during Macklemore's performance and even took to bragging about it on her social media page afterwards.

However, this flex online would end up being a major flop.

A person online seemed to recognize the unlucky woman and things started to snowball from there.

The police were supervising at the festival which was held at an airport in west Slovakia and were alerted by the third party who recognized the woman from the post.

In a statement on Facebook, the police said: “The woman immortalized this experience and boasted about it on a social network, which did not escape the attention of an observant citizen, who at the same time follows the site of the Interior Ministry Wanted List.

“He recognized the woman and found out that he had just seen her on the above-mentioned website and informed the police immediately.”

But seemingly as a gesture of good will, the officers let the woman have her moment before they arrested her and escorted away. So, that’s nice I suppose.

The police did not release the name of the woman but confirmed she was a 24-year-old from Bratislava.

Despite this, Slovakian media found her picture on the wanted list and said the woman was a bartender who was accused of not paying a fine after running shirtless during a football match in Slovakia in 2019, where she was reportedly working as part of the staff.

At the time, it was reported that she spent the weekend in custody, was banned from attending similar events, and fined 800 Euros ($890), which she allegedly failed to pay.
