Benson Boone‘s new stage design for his newly launched American Heart World Tour has drawn attention online for its resemblance to testicles. The tour promotes Boone’s second and latest studio album, American Heart. It commenced on August 22, 2025, in Saint Paul, Minnesota, and is set to span several countries and cities around the world. The tour will conclude later this year in Stockholm, Sweden.
Benson Boone’s new stage design has fans talking
Photos of Benson Boone’s stage design for his American Heart World Tour were recently uploaded online. The stage has two big red heart-shaped platforms on opposite ends, separated by a runway. One platform has two stairs intersecting a portion of the runway. Meanwhile, the other has a silver design with a red border. Boone’s initials “BB” are inscribed in red in the middle of the latter platform.
However, upon closer inspection, fans couldn’t help but notice that the runway was shaped like a pair of testicles.
Fans later shared a plethora of reactions on social media, claiming the stage looks like “balls.” “Looks like a ballsack,” one fan wrote. “Um. Why’s it that shaped,” another fan asked.
One fan suggested that the stage design had gone through multiple stages of approval before construction.
“Representation of BB forcing himself down our throat,” a fan commented.
Benson Boone kicked off his American Heart World Tour on Friday, August 22, 2025, in Saint Paul, Minnesota, with a concert at Xcel Energy Center. The North American leg of his tour is expected to take place until October 11, 2025.
He will subsequently launch the international leg of his tour on October 23 in Belfast, Northern Ireland, and conclude it on November 18 in Stockholm, Sweden.
In a recent Elle interview, the “Beautiful Things” hitmaker teased that this tour would be “the most thought-out show” he had “ever played.” “I’ve spent the last six months thinking and planning every song—what’s going to be on the screens, what I’m going to be doing, and what I’m going to be wearing,” he added. “It’s a whole world that I’ve built in my head. I’m really excited for people to see it.”
