50 Cent Ends Up Hurting A Fan After Throwing The Microphone Off The Stage And Creating A Wound On His Forehead
In a surprising turn of events at his recent tour stop, rapper 50 Cent finds himself embroiled in controversy as he reportedly struck a concertgoer with a microphone, leading to allegations of battery. The incident occurred during his performance at the Crypto.com Arena in downtown Los Angeles.
Footage circulating on various social media platforms captured the moment when 50 Cent, known for hits like "Candy Shop" and "P.I.M.P," was on stage performing alongside YG, engaging the audience with the song "Toot It and Boot It." As the performance unfolded, a malfunctioning microphone was handed to the rapper by a stagehand. In a somewhat bewildering sequence, 50 Cent received two microphones—one of which he casually discarded, while the other he forcefully hurled into the crowd.
Tragically, the microphone struck an attendee in the head. Reports soon identified the individual as Bryhana Monegain, a midday deejay at Power 106. Distressing images released by media outlets like TMZ and The Neighborhood Talk depicted Monegain with bandages on her face and bloodied hands as she received medical attention. In a video shared by TMZ, Monegain expressed her worries about the extent of her injuries and potential implications on her well-being.
It's worth noting that, according to TMZ, 50 Cent's actions were not intentionally directed at Monegain. She had apparently found herself in a restricted area where the rapper chose to discard the malfunctioning microphone.
Despite the incident's severity, no immediate official action was taken by the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD), as no incident report or police radio calls were filed in relation to the matter. However, subsequent developments have taken a more serious turn. TMZ reported that Monegain filed a police report, alleging criminal battery against 50 Cent. Law enforcement sources shared with the publication that they believe the rapper intended to throw the microphone at his crew in the production area, inadvertently hitting Monegain. Contrarily, Monegain asserted that 50 Cent looked directly at her before launching the microphone, indicating he was aware of her presence.
As news of the incident circulated, both KPWR-FM (105.9) and the Crypto.com Arena remained tight-lipped, offering no immediate comments on the situation. Bryhana Monegain herself refrained from addressing the incident, although her radio station continued to share other noteworthy moments from the concert on social media, such as appearances by Busta Rhymes, Nas, DaBaby, and Chris Brown.
As of now, 50 Cent has not publicly addressed the incident himself. His representatives also did not respond to media outlets' requests for comments on the matter.
what was intended to be an electrifying performance by 50 Cent took an unexpected and unfortunate turn as a malfunctioning microphone struck an audience member. The aftermath of the incident has led to accusations of battery and legal complications, leaving fans and observers awaiting further developments and potential responses from both parties involved.
