A fan filed a battery report after Cardi B threw her microphone into the crowd during a performance.
On Saturday, during a performance of “Bodak Yellow” at Drai’s Beachclub in Las Vegas, rapper Cardi B was struck by a fan’s large drink thrown on stage. The unexpected incident occurred as the audience was energized, causing the singer to pause momentarily in surprise.
In reaction to the drink being thrown, Cardi B threw her microphone into the crowd. The microphone hit the fan responsible for throwing the drink, as well as another woman nearby. The object appeared to ricochet after impact, causing some confusion and prompting immediate reactions from the surrounding crowd.
Las Vegas Metropolitan Police confirmed that the woman hit by the microphone filed a police report the following day, claiming she was struck by an object thrown from the stage during the concert. The police are now investigating the matter.
Although the police report has been filed, no arrests or citations have been made, and no further details about the identities of those involved have been released. The incident has sparked a conversation about the safety of performers and fans at live events.
In the wake of the event, Drai’s Beachclub, where the performance took place, declined to comment on the situation and referred all inquiries to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police. Cardi B’s representatives have also not issued any official statements.
This incident adds to a growing list of similar events in recent months, where artists have been targeted with thrown objects during concerts. These occurrences have raised alarms about crowd behavior and the safety of performers while on stage. The ongoing investigation will likely provide further insights into how venues and artists can prevent such incidents in the future.
