Members of the group like Stell and Pablo seemed puzzled with what they were hearing through their in-ear monitors. All five members of the group walked out halfway through the performance together with their dancers.
After a few minutes, they went back onstage to try it again and suffered the same glitch. It was not clear if the problem was with the live band or with an audio track.
