Action Bronson is known for bringing a energy to his shows, but unfortunately he cut one of his performances short after he was blinded by a strobe light. Performing at the Algonquin Commons Theater in Ottawa, Canada on Monday (Apr. 15), the Queens rapper can be seen in a video from TMZ shielding his eyes and stumbling back and forth on-stage. 

 

In an all-caps tweet, Bronson stated, "I was blinded and disoriented from that blast of the strobe light last night, that's why I was unable to finish in Ottawa." Explaining further, he added that he's doing a lot better now after receiving medical attention. "I'm feeling better now thank you. Those things need to never be near me again it was almost really bad. Be careful." 

I WAS BLINDED AND DISORIENTED FROM THAT BLAST OF THE STROBE LIGHT LAST NIGHT THATS WHY I WAS UNABLE TO FINISH IN OTTAWA. IM FEELING BETTER NOW THANK YOU. THOSE THINGS NEED TO NEVER BE NEAR ME AGAIN IT WAS ALMOST REALLY BAD. BE CAREFUL.
