John Summit has addressed the abrupt ending of his Monaco Formula 1 afterparty performance, claiming an unexpected onstage disruption forced the event to shut down before his set was complete.

The electronic music star was performing at Lilly's Club in Monte Carlo during the Monaco Grand Prix weekend when the show reportedly came to an unexpected halt. Videos circulating on social media appeared to show a commotion developing near the stage after another artist arrived during the performance.

Following the incident, Summit shared a statement on social media suggesting that circumstances beyond his control led to the early conclusion of the event. He wrote that his show was shut down after another artist allegedly arrived late and forced their way onto the stage. While Summit did not directly identify the individual involved, he referenced a Travis Scott song in his post, leading to widespread speculation online.

Additional footage posted by Summit showed the crowd enjoying the performance shortly before the interruption occurred. The DJ later shared another video from backstage, expressing disappointment that he was unable to finish his scheduled set.

The situation gained further attention when Summit's production director, Erik Fink, appeared to reference Travis Scott in a social media post promoting Summit's upcoming Ibiza performance. Fink jokingly highlighted that the next event would feature "no Travis Scott," fueling speculation about the identity of the person involved in the disruption.

As of now, Travis Scott has not publicly commented on the incident. No official statement has been issued by event organizers regarding the circumstances surrounding the show's early ending.

The incident quickly became a major talking point among electronic music fans, adding unexpected drama to one of the busiest weekends on the Formula 1 and entertainment calendar.
