During the Singapore premiere of Ariana Grande's latest musical fantasy film, Wen was filmed in multiple videos suddenly sprinting toward the singer on the yellow brick carpet.
Dressed in a white shirt and shorts, the content creatorforcefully grabbed Grandeand put his arm around her shoulders as she struggled to break free.
He released her only after co-star Cynthia Erivo intervened, yanking him away before security rushed in and dragged him off the premises.

Wen was sentenced to nine days in prison in Singapore for the stunt, which left theWe Can't Be Friendssinger visibly shaken on camera as Erivo and other stars at the premiere, including Michelle Yeoh, comforted her.
Despite telling a Singaporean judge during his mitigation plea that he would "not do it again," Wen emerged from jail only to resurface at Lady Gaga'sMayhem Balltour stop at Lang Park stadium in Brisbane.
Aviral video circulating onlineshows him being kicked out of the concert by security and event management, reportedly due to his history of public nuisance, particularly his pattern of disrupting concerts.
Popularly known online as "Pyjama Man," he has disrupted three major concerts in just the past year and a half.

Wen later confirmed the news on his Instagram Story, showing no remorse for his actions at all.
Instead, he appeared to mock the crowd, posting a zoomed-in photo of himself staring into the camera with the caption, "Got kicked out of Lady Gaga concert! The show doesn't start till 8 p.m.! The early fans were booing me."

His latest stunt has left social media users furious and confused as to why he continues repeating this behavior despite facing legal consequences.
One user suggested it was all part of his strategy for attention, writing, "This guy has won. He's getting exactly what he wants. His entire thing is crashing celebrity events and concerts; now he's getting international press over it."
They added, "He's obviously not fazed by some fines or a week in jail because his clout is boosted by every attention he gets."
