A concertgoer has filed a report to the police against Cardi B claiming that she was “struck by an item that was thrown from the stage,” at the Las Vegas show.
The video has already been viral through social media, however, things have escalated. A concertgoer from the last show in Las Vegas has filed a report against rapper Cardi B for throwing the microphone. In the video, it can be seen that the fan splashed a drink at her first and then Cardi B threw the microphone back.
The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department said on Monday that a person filed a police report on Sunday alleging battery, claiming she was “struck by an item that was thrown from the stage.” Though the police department has not mentioned Cardi’s name the report matches with the incident that is getting viral through the internet. The location of the alleged incident matches the venue as well.
The incident took place on Saturday and the video got much attention over the internet. In the viral video on social media, the 30-year-old rapper could be seen hurling a microphone at an unruly concert-going member after the person splashed their beverage on her while the performance was ongoing at Drai’s Beachclub on the Las Vegas Strip.
The Police statement on Monday said that no arrest or citations had been issued, and “no further details will be provided at this time.” The spokesperson for Cardi B also did not request for comment.
This is not new but many rash incidents like Saturday night are taking place recently where the artists have been struck by different kinds of objects while performing on stage. In recent times, Bebe Rexha was greatly injured when a fan threw a cell phone at her face, Drake also called out a fan for throwing a vape on the stage, someone tossed their dead mother’s ashes up onto P!nk’s stage while performing.

Similarly, Kelsea Ballerini was hit by an object in the middle of her song, Harry Styles was found wincing in pain when someone threw some mysterious object, and Lil Nas X also received a sex toy thrown at him during his performance. Performances etiquettes are greatly compromised and that is pushing the artists on their edges.
In case of Cardi B, she was in the middle of the action to deliver her hit track “Bodak Yellow (Money Moves)”, the song that spent three weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 2017; and suddenly, she was splashed by the liquid from a cup of a concertgoer. In the video, it is evident that Cardi turned very angry and threw the microphone down in the crowd, and proceeded to yell but was soon stopped by the crew.
