According to DW.com, German newspaper Bild reported a man made threats against the Australian popprincess.
Pictures of the man were plastered around the venue and Belgian police were also contacted about the threat.
The publication reports all men were frisked before being allowed into the venue, with up to 2500 guests in attendance, and all men had their IDs checked.
