Brandy returned to the stage in Indianapolis, reuniting with Monica on The Boy Is Mine Tour after leaving the Chicago show early.
50 Cent wasted no time poking fun at Brandy after she abruptly left the stage during her performance in Chicago, using Instagram to deliver a crude joke at her expense.
The Hip-Hop mogul posted a clip Monday morning (October 19) showing Brandy walking offstage at the United Center, where she had been performing alongside Monica on their “The Boy Is Mine” tour.
“she just walked off the stage, ain’t nothing wrong with that mic,” he wrote in the caption. “She said my stomach upset, gotta go sh!t good night ! LOL.”
Brandy’s unexpected exit on Saturday night (October 18) left the crowd confused.
She paused mid-performance and told the audience, “Give me one second, y’all, I gotta get my—” before walking off and never returning. Monica finished the set solo.
The following night, Brandy reappeared in Indianapolis at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, where she and Monica performed their 1998 hit “The Boy Is Mine” to a warm reception.

In a statement posted to Instagram, Brandy explained what happened in Chicago.
“I sincerely apologize for the abrupt end to last night’s performance in Chicago,” she wrote. “After weeks of nonstop rehearsals, last night I experienced dehydration and feelings of wanting to faint. Everyone involved agreed that prioritizing my well-being was of the utmost importance.”
Brandy said she initially tried to return to the stage, but technical issues made it impossible to continue. She also thanked Monica for stepping up in her absence.
The 46-year-old singer added that she received medical attention after the show and has taken steps to ensure she can complete the rest of the tour.
“I look forward to returning to the stage—stronger and more grateful than ever—alongside my girl, Monica,” she said.
