Three shows into The Boy Is Mine Tour, the Chicago stop ended abruptly after Brandy Norwood left the United Center stage early, saying she needed “one second” amid apparent sound issues, and did not return. Fans on social media said the concert was cut short and that Monica finished the show alone, without the 1998 duet. Videos showed a frustrated crowd as the lights came up. Deadline has reached out to Norwood’s team for comment. The tour opened Thursday in Cincinnati, with appearances from Kelly Rowland and Muni Long.
