So many weird answers here. The simple answer is the audio engineer has a button that turns the microphone on and off, and they are watching the performer closely for these situations. Typically, any microphone that is not currently being used is either turned off or down, because each microphone that is on and turned up is increasing the potential for feedback or other unwanted noises.
