Rapper 50 Cent threw a microphone into the crowd, resulting in an injury to a concertgoer. The incident took place during his “Final Lap” tour stop at Cryto.com Arena in LA on August 30, as reported by Variety. However, the victim, Bryhana, who is a radio host, has filed a criminal felony battery report, as reported by TMZ.
After concluding his performance at the LA concert, videos emerged of the rapper on stage displaying visible frustration. These videos captured the moment when 50 Cent took his microphone and threw it into the crowd, not just once, but twice. The reason behind his actions appeared to be the malfunctioning microphones. In his initial attempt, he hurled the microphone with relatively little force. However, when the second microphone also proved to be nonfunctional, his frustration escalated, leading him to launch it forcefully into the audience.
During this incident, there were special guests, including YG, performing on the stage. Unfortunately, while 50 Cent’s actions unfolded, an audience member was struck by the thrown microphone. The person hit was identified as Bryhana Monegain. Photographs of her have circulated on social media, depicting her with a visible wound on her forehead, and she can be seen with bloody towels wrapped around her neck.
Scott Leemon, an attorney for 50 Cent, said in a statement, as per Variety, “Let’s be very clear, as I told LAPD (Los Angeles Police Department) this afternoon (August 31), my client Curtis would never intentionally strike anyone with a microphone. Anyone saying something different doesn’t have all the facts and is misinformed.”
Not long ago, Cardi B was in a similar situation. She got really mad and threw her microphone at a fan.
