Hairspray star goes into labour at Beyonce show and claims singer 'induced' baby
A concertgoer has shared that she went into labour during one of Beyoncé's concerts earlier this week, with her teasing that she had initially thought it was a "false alarm".
Beyoncé, 42, performed a series of concerts at the SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, recently as part of her Renaissance World Tour. This included a show on Monday, which coincided with the singer-songwriter's birthday.
Among those present was actor and dancer Sarah Francis Jones - who's been in films like Hairspray (2007), in which she played student Janetta - and her partner Marcel Spears. The gig is said to have been a week prior to Sarah's scheduled C-section delivery with their first child together.

She's said to have begun timing the contractions during the concert, with her providing the results recently.
She told ABC7 that the contractions felt around 30 minutes apart and that she thought it was a "false alarm". Sarah further commented to the TV station: "And then by the time we got to the car I was like 'this is not a false alarm'."
Sarah - who spoke about her experience from hospital following the birth on Tuesday - said that it was a "perfect set of circumstances" for her daughter's arrival. She teased that it included having been Beyoncé's birthday show.
She said in the interview: "We're at Beyoncé's birthday concert, on Labor Day, and then I go into labour, with my Virgo baby. I'm a Virgo [too]." Sarah teased that it "made sense" for her newborn baby to born in the circumstances.
The dancer and her partner Marcel - who's himself appeared in shows like CBS' The Neighborhood and ABC's The Mayor - have been met with congratulatory messages from people on social media this week over Nola's arrival.
