Watch Steven Tyler Shove Handsy Fan Trying for Surprise Selfie

Watch Steven Tyler Shove Fan Trying for Selfie Before 'Today' Show

A rockstar like Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler surely has a security detail when he's on the road, but that doesn't mean he's a diva who's not capable of handling rowdy fans himself.

Aerosmith announced yesterday on NBC's Today show that the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame band would celebrate its 50th anniversary next spring with a residency in Las Vegas.

The band performed a mini-set for the morning show. To add to the fanfare, Aerosmith walked from its tour bus to the stage. But one young fan thought live television was a good opportunity to grab a selfie with Tyler — and we do mean grab.

The fan jumped in Tyler's way, hooking his arm around Tyler's head grinning ear-to-ear. But Tyler, now 70 years old, has dealt with this kind of thing before. The frontman slipped out from under the man's arm and shoved him back into the crowd in one motion! 

After righting his hair, he continued his stroll to the stage as if nothing happened.

"No time, bro," Tyler commented on a Tweet about the incident. "This is LIVE TELEVISION! Come to the show if you want an intimate experience."

Check it out in the video below.

Aerosmith's Deuces Are Wild Las Vegas Residency will begin April 6, 2019, at Park Theater at Park MGM. 

Currently, the band has 18 dates booked for the residency. While it looks like the band will spend most of April, June and July in Vegas, it's still not clear if it will also take its show on the road sometime next year — or if the shift to a residency represents the band bidding goodbye to its touring career.

Citi pre-sale for the Deuces Are Wild Las Vegas Residency begins Monday, August 20, at 10 AM PT. Public on-sale begins Friday, August 24, at 10 AM. For all the dates and info, go here
