Bryan Adams is being hailed for his chill response after a stage invader interrupted his performance of Summer of ’69 at a recent concert in Utah.

Adams was in mid-verse when the overzealous fan grabbed the mic and belted out a few lines before security quickly ushered the concertgoer off the stage.

“Sometimes you just gotta laugh…#stagecrasher #summerof69,” Adams wrote, sharing a clip of the exchange with his 1.1 million Instagram followers.

In the comments section of Adams’ post, followers endorsed the stage crasher for taking a shot at stardom.

“I was there! What a crazy moment!” one fan laughed. “Ya gotta admire Bryan’s professionalism. He just stepped back, let the crazy be crazy, let the professionals do their job, and continued like NOTHING had happened.”

“I kinda liked it,” another cheered. “He was passionate. Dude meant well and really y’all didn’t miss a beat!!!”

“Actually, he has a great voice,” a third reviewer noted. “He did it great for 5 seconds.”

“I love everything about this,” a fourth person wrote. “The stage crasher daring to jump up and get his 5 mins of fame. The look of panic on the security guards’ faces. [Adams] seamlessly stepping forward and singing the next line like it didn’t happen … Absolute gold.”

One person broke down how the enthusiastic fan managed to grab his brief time in the spotlight.

“That guy was 3 rows in front of us. All of a sudden [he] showed up in the front row and chatted it up with 2 people,” they wrote. “He looked back at his buddies with one of those sly grins. Quite a feat to jump the barriers and get on stage. @bryanadams made it look seamless.”

One defender pleaded with Adams to let him come back and sing a different song.

“To be fair, his pitch was OK and he nailed the lyrics. Could have been worse, could have been a JustStopOil protestor. @bryanadams can you have him back to sing Please Forgive Me so he can make things right?”

Adams’ superstar friends also weighed in on the incident.

“Got [to] love the guy — his heart was in it,” Van Halen rocker Sammy Hagar commented, while former supermodel Linda Evangelista added: “You laughed at me [the] same way when I tried unsuccessfully to get near your stage.”
