The 'As It Was' singer was clearly startled by the incident as he bent over for a few seconds, before leaving the stage while still applying his hand to his face.
This has been an ongoing trend as concertgoers have attacked several artists.
First, singer Bebe Rexha was struck in the eye when someone threw a phone at her.
