She didn't notice the "Live" icon flash red. She didn't notice that instead of saving a video to a stranger’s gallery, she had accidentally hit a shortcut that initiated a broadcast to the fan's startled followers.

The "accidental leak" wasn't a wardrobe malfunction or a secret song—it was the raw, unedited footage of her performance, broadcasted directly to a random teenager's 300 followers, who had quickly screen-recorded the whole thing.
Her manager looked at her, then at the soaring engagement numbers. "Grelmos, that fan's phone just gave us more promo than the entire marketing budget."
