SPAIN, MEXICO: In a bizarre tribute to Katy Perry, a fan pulled out strands of the singer's hair extensions from behind without her noticing it and later framed it on the wall.

Based on her Instagram, the 'Firework' hitmaker seems to have been in Mexico at the time of the occurrence, where Perry danced on stage in front of a crowd of adoring fans, per UNILAD.

An astute observer noticed a loose hair extension dangling behind the singer, who had her dark hair down, as Perry danced to Madonna's 'Hung Up' while enjoying a drink.

Then a picture purportedly displayed the same lock framed on the wall with the words "Katy Perry's hair extension" written under it.

Additionally, Perry revealed that the Music Venue Trust, a group that promotes and supports local music scenes and venues across the United Kingdom, will receive £1 from each ticket sold during the tour's UK leg.

"I’m proud to donate £1 from every ticket on the U.K. leg of The Lifetimes Tour to Music Venue Trust so that venues like Water Rats and Scala, where I played my first UK shows, can continue to usher in the next generation of music talent," she said.

Perry released her seventh studio album, '143', in September which peaked at 6th place on the Billboard 200 and the Official Albums Chart in the United Kingdom, her lowest ranking in more than ten years.

Another user noted that the fan was somewhat bold for taking the chance, and that it might have been Perry's real hair.

"I dont know how people can be so brave what if they accidently pulled her real hair with it," they said.

"Idc, this is harassment and weird," remarked one while another added, "Idk, but to me this is kinda gross."

Another wrote in part, "This is creepy and shows just how detached the concepts of personhood and celebrity are in most people's lives now."
