Benson Boone literally leapt into my life in February 2025. The baby blue jumpsuit covered in sequins. The voice. The hair. And the FLIPS. Not what I expected at all.
Let the counting begin…
2025
Two at the Grammys.
Heidi Klum & Nikki Glaser ripped off his tux to reveal the sequins beneath. First flip off the piano, second one finished with a spin move and a high note. A showman from the jump (yes, I mean that).
The American Heart Tour
Seven in Detroit.
The Detroit News counted four backflips and three front flips.
Seven in San Diego.
2026
The Wanted Man Tour
Six in San Jose.
Counted by @ally_rogin.
Five or six in Chicago.
A week later. The Sun-Times hedged.
The rule
One rule, so we're all counting the same thing: a flip doesn't touch the ground. The soft rolls into the crowd are lovely. They're not flips.
Nobody's counting this but us. That seems like a gap.
What did you count, and where?
