One Direction frontman Harry Styles was left a little stunned stunned after he was hit by a bottle during a concert in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
The group was performing at Lincoln Financial Field when a fan threw a bottle of water onstage, striking Styles' face while he was in the middle of their closing tune, "Best Song Ever", prompting the 21-year-old to exit the stage early, reported BBC online.
Following the incident, attendee Hanna Cooke posted a message on Twitter, taking responsibility for the act.
"I accidentally hit him in the face and he doesn't even notice me what a waste," Cooke wrote.
After her admission, she was attacked on the social media site.
She subsequently posted an apology writing, "As I've said so many times, I'm truly sorry. I apologise to Harry and his family for doing such a ridiculous and stupid thing. I laughed because I was shocked and I didn't know what to do. I never meant to hurt him.
"I love Harry with all my heart and I promise you I feel so bad. I'm sure Harry doesn't want his fans to tell someone that they should die, not even after what I did."
Styles' mother also waded into the furor, initially scolding audience members who were throwing things, but later asking fans to refrain from threatening Cooke.
