What I will address are a lot of other posters saying this kind of behavior from "rock stars" is "normal" or "expected. I think some of that is true.... to a degree, depending on the act. I just want to separate those "rock stars" to REAL rock stars.
I have posted before how AC/DC and Rush are my two favorite bands. They are wildly popular and successful and I have seen both in concert many times. Not once did I ever see Brian Johnson or Geddy Lee resort to such childish tactics to swoon the ladies. Why? They don't need to (plus they're both happily married). They make / made their living by using their actual talent and that's why they sold out arenas, stadiums, and venues for decades. I could go on forever about how great those two bands are but I'd break the Internet nor do I want to hijack the discussion.
My point is is if you go to a performance and the singer / band member, etc. does these corny moves, ask for refund because you're seeing a bunch of talentless clowns.

Good points. I don’t think it’s normal or expected but rather that it happens a lot. It’s not extremely unusual and isn’t something they do because they are enamored with strangers or want sexual favors, it’s part of their performance. Gross? Yes. But does it mean it never happens? No
Oh I doubt he was the actual star. Small club with people coming so close up to the stage he could pour water on them? No way no how
