Here Are All 20+ Celebs Spotted At BTS’s “PERMISSION TO DANCE ON STAGE” Concerts
BTS recently concluded their four-day concerts in Los Angeles, California, PERMISSION TO DANCE ON STAGE, at SoFi Stadium. Since the stadium has a capacity of 70,000+ seats and it’s in a star-filled city, a few celebrities were bound to end up in attendance. ARMY is a hugely diverse fanbase, after all.
So, here are 20+ celebs spotted at BTS’s PERMISSION TO DANCE ON STAGE concerts…
1. Anderson .Paak
Anderson .Paak is a super talented Grammy-winning musician of both African-American and Korean heritage. He’s one-half of the super duo Silk Sonic with Bruno Mars and one of the few people in attendance lucky enough to meet BTS too!
