“A scrunchy got her upset ???? Well then . . . ” said another. “THE DEATH STARE,” another wrote. The video also sparked a conversation about how it can be dangerous for artists when fans throw objects at them on stage. “People need to learn. Don’t throw stuff on stage. It’s dangerous for the dancers and performers who don’t see it and trip. I’m glad she clap[ed] back by throwing it back at them,” one commenter said.
The incident adds to the dangerous trend of fans throwing objects at artists on stage, posing a risk to their safety
It is alarmingly common for fans to throw objects at performers, and the dangerous trend can pose safety risks to the artists. Singer Bebe Rexha once sustained injuries after a phone was thrown at her in the middle of a concert. Harry Styles, meanwhile, was struck in the eye after an object was thrown at him, while Pink once found someone tossing a bag of their mom’s ashes on stage during her concert. When Cardi B witnessed a similar situation during a Las Vegas show, she threw her microphone at the front-row concertgoer, who hurled their drink at her as she was performing.
