Video: Fan injured after rapper 50 Cent throws mic, netizens left horrified; Here’s what happened

Rapper 50 Cent was performing on stage at his Final Lap Tour 2023 on Wednesday, August 30, when he happened to throw a microphone in the crowd, injuring a female fan. The concert was being held at the Crypto Arena in Los Angeles, when the incident occurred. Here’s what happened.

During his performance on tour, 50 Cent hurled a mic in the crowd, possibly like how artists and sportstars throw their T-shirts to fans.

However, the microphone is an object that can be dangerous if thrown at someone. A woman was hit in the head with the mic thrown by 50 Cent, injuring her.


Pictures on social media of the woman named Bryhana Monegain, after the injury, show her with a lacerated gash on her forehead. She is seen with a bandaged head in the photos.

Netizens did not take too kindly to the incident and reacted strongly. Here are some of the reactions:

A fan said, "Maybe there was a bullet in that microphone”, showing concern about the strange act. While some have reacted saying that the injured fan should receive some compensation from the singer.




Here is the footage of 50 Cent, as he took the mic in his hands and threw it at the audience randomly and unprovoked.



50 Cent has been charged with battery with intent to cause harm by Bryhana Monegain. However, 50 Cent's lawyer has said that the singer did not hit the female fan intentionally.

Bryhana Monegain said in her police report that the rapper looked directly at her and threw the microphone at her.

50 Cent's lawyers have released an exclusive statement through TMZ. It reads: "Let's be very clear, as I told LAPD this afternoon, my client Curtis AKA 50 Cent would never intentionally strike anyone with a microphone. Anyone saying something different doesn’t have all the facts and is misinformed."

This incident comes after a series of acts in the recent past of fans throwing things on stage at artists as they performed live.
