Cardi B Sued For Throwing A Microphone At A Fan During A Concert In Las Vegas

Cardi B is being sued by a woman who was struck by a microphone at one of her concerts in Las Vegas.

According to the Las Vegas Review Journal, an anonymous Ohio woman filed a lawsuit in District Court Cardi B and Drai’s Management Group LLC, the operator of the club where the alleged incident occurred. The suit complaint claims, “battery, assault and negligence.”

At the time of the incident, local police investigated the allegations but later decided not to press charges. 

“What has been written off as a joke by many people is actually a traumatic experience that has significantly impacted my well-being and quality of life,” the plaintiff said in a statement on Wednesday. “I am seeking justice in the hopes of holding Cardi B accountable for her misdeeds, as no celebrity is above the law.”

The incident tool place in July 2023 as Cardi B performed at Drai’s Beachclub at the Cromwell. After a concert goer threw at drink at the “Bodak Yellow” rapper, she responsed by tossing  a microphone at a person in the crowd. The mic also struck a fan standing next to the person who threw the drink at Cardi B.

Eventually, the microphone was auctioned off for $99,000, the complaint read.

The lawsuit also says  that Cardi B also threw a microphone at a DJ on the night before the incident.

“Drai’s, as the operator of the venue, had a duty to supervise the performance and ensure the safety of its patrons, including Plaintiff,” the complaint said.
