Brandy performed to an empty room on Saturday.
The 34-year- old singer was set to be the surprise grand finale act for Mandela Sports and Culture Day in Soweto, South Africa last weekend, however, concertgoers left the stadium, which holds 90,000, ahead of Brandy taking the stage.
"There were no more than 40 people present," according to Guardian newspaper.
Although tens of thousands reportedly filled the stadium earlier in the day for football and rugby matches, the crowd began to slowly leave their seats once the music portion of the day began.
The other entertainers were David Jenkins, Elvis Blue, Salif Keita and D'Banj.
They all performed their sets before the R&B singer, leaving very few spectators for Brandy.
A request for comment was not immediately returned from Brandy's rep.
