Police in Brazil revealed on Sunday that they successfully intercepted a plot to use improvised explosives at Lady Gaga’s concert in Rio de Janeiro, which drew massive crowds estimated at over two million. The concert on Copacabana Beach unfolded without incident, despite the alarming threat. Officials noted that the group had enlisted participants, including teens, to execute the attack targeted at children, adolescents, and members of the L.G.B.T.Q. community. The alleged ringleader was apprehended in Rio Grande do Sul for illegal firearm possession, while a teen was also arrested for possessing child pornography. The motives of the group and the status of any charges remain unclear. Lady Gaga's management, known for their commitment to L.G.B.T.Q. advocacy, declined to comment on the situation. The event was part of a broader initiative by Rio’s government to host major free concerts, similar to past events featuring artists like Madonna.
