Rocker Sophia Urista has issued an apology for peeing on a fan onstage during a performance.
The Brass Against lead singer made headlines after she peed on a male fan in the middle of the band’s performance at the Welcome to Rockville festival in Daytona Beach, Florida. Video footage of the incident went viral.
In the video, the singer told the audience she had to pee and couldn’t “make it to the bathroom.”

“So we might as well make a show out of it,” she said. “Get my man with the can on his head ready, ’cause we’re going to bring him onstage and I’ma p*** in this motherf*****’s mouth.”
Urista then brought a male fan, who had a crushed beer can glued to his forehead, on stage and told him to lie down. She began urinating on the man while the band performed a cover of Rage Against the Machine’s Wake Up.
The rocker issued an apology on her personal Instagram account yesterday.
“I have always pushed the limits in music and on stage. That night, I pushed the limits too far,” she wrote. “I love my family, the band, and the fans more than anything and I know that some were hurt or offended by what I did. I apologize to them and want them to know that I didn’t mean to hurt them.”
“I am not a shock artist, “Urista clarified. “I always want to put the music first.”
She then ended her post by thanking fans for their continued love and support.
