On Sunday night, Bebe Rexha, a Grammy Award-nominated artist from New York City, was struck in the face by a cell phone after a fan chucked it at her during a live performance. The incident happened around 10 pm at a venue called The Rooftop at Pier 17 in Lower Manhattan. Video of the occurrence has already gone viral as it depicts the 33-year-old getting hit so hard by the object that it caused her to fall to the ground. According to reports, she was rushed to a nearby hospital shortly thereafter, where she received stitches. She later posted a selfie of her black eye on Instagram with a caption that read, "I'm good."
Law enforcement arrested Nicolas Malvagna (27) in connection with the incident. The New Jersey native has been charged with assault.
The next stop on Bebe Rexha's "Best Night of My F*cking Life" tour is supposed to be at The Fillmore in Philadelphia.
