The Warsaw leg of Beyoncé's On the Run II concert was just ending when Queen Bey became the victim of a last-minute technological hiccup: the floating stage she was on dared to stop working.

This is the first time a stage malfunction like this has happened on Bey and Jay-Z's new joint tour. May it be the only time.
