The Chainsmokers Crash Frat Party in Arizona, Which Got Shut Down by Cops: 'Will Happily Pay the Fine'

• Alex Pall and Drew Taggart of The Chainsmokers surprised college students at a fraternity party in Arizona, which was rapidly shut down by the police
• The band revealed that they paid a fine and secured 15 minutes to perform at the event
• They managed to fit in "all of the classics," including breakout hit "Roses" and their massive Halsey collaboration "Closer"

The Chainsmokers put on an unexpected performance after crashing a fraternity party; then they paid a fine so that the celebration could continue.

On Sunday, April 20, the DJ duo shared a video on Instagram revealing that they surprised students at a college party in Arizona. However, the police showed up "after 13 minutes" and seemingly tried to shut it down.

"Listen up, if you are under the age of 21, I'm gonna tell you to leave right now or I'm gonna start writing tickets and start arresting folks," a police officer was seen saying in the video before cutting to Alex Pall, 39, who joked that they had only "played 45 seconds of a song."

Thankfully, the "Don't Let Me Down" hitmakers worked things out with the police.

"We got shut down by the cops already, but we're paying the fine. We're gonna get another 15 minutes," Pall said in the video, while text over the clip read "Everyone cheering for Alex's bank [account]."

After securing more time onstage, Pall and his creative partner Drew Taggart, 35, "decided to play all of the classics." That included breakout hit "Roses" and their Halsey collaboration "Closer."

The crowd could be seen cheering along and having a great time through it all.

"Will happily pay the fine," the duo joked in the accompanying caption.

After their viral hit "#Selfie" took off in 2014, Pall and Taggart took their career to the next level with "Roses" the following year. However, they were branded partiers and admitted to feeling like "people's dirty little secret."

In a 2022 interview with Billboard, the pair referenced a story from 2016 that said they "rage every night."

"I remember reading that and thinking, 'I can't believe this is what people are going to think of us,' and 'Do we come off this way? I don't want to be this person, you know?'" Taggart admitted. "That was the biggest thing. The guys we read about there, I was like, 'I don't like these guys.' "

After taking an extended break and launching a comeback in 2022, they told the outlet that it felt "like we're a new band starting over in a lot of ways…. It's the best feeling ever."

Since then, they've continued to release songs. In 2023, Taggart addressed struggles with alcohol addiction on the group's song "Self-Destruction Mode."

"I've struggled with drinking throughout my career as it's an addiction that’s woven into the environment we exist in," Taggart wrote in a post on Instagram at the time. "This guilt of not being good enough or not being better ironically sends me into a spiral that restarts my bad habit cycle."

He described the song as "an embrace or celebration of all that I am," noting that it was "not a cry for help."

More recently, Taggart shared some big relationship news when he revealed his engagement to Brazilian supermodel Marianne Fonseca.
