Summary
- Brandy, 46, left the stage during the Chicago stop of the duo's tour
- Sound issues appeared to be the cause of Brandy's sudden exit

On October 18, 2025, Brandy and Monica's The Boy Is Mine Tour encountered a setback during the Chicago stop of their highly anticipated reunion tour. According to videos shared on social media, Brandy, 46, unexpectedly left the stage mid-performance, citing what seemed to be sound issues.
"Give me one second y'all I gotta get my...," Brandy said as she made her way off the stage at the United Center. However, the Grammy-winning artist never returned, leaving her counterpart Monica, 44, to perform the final songs by herself. The crowd was ultimately sent home without hearing the duo's iconic 1998 collaboration, "The Boy Is Mine."
The tour, which kicked off on October 16, 2025, marked over two decades since Brandy and Monica's chart-topping hit. The two R&B stars had previously feuded for years after a backstage altercation at the 1998 MTV Video Music Awards, but have since reconciled and are now celebrating their musical legacy and the enduring connection with their fans.
