Cardi B throws mic at fan after drink toss in Las Vegas while netizens mock her for lip-syncing
Cardi B reacts to an unruly concertgoer by launching her microphone after a drink was thrown at her during a Las Vegas performance.
LAS VEGAS, UNITED STATES: Cardi B hurled her microphone at an unruly concertgoer who launched a drink at the rapper during a performance in Las Vegas on last Saturday (29 Jul), becoming the latest artist to have an object thrown at them while onstage.
According to the New York Post, the New York native had been performing “Bodak Yellow” at Drai’s Beachclub in Las Vegas when a fan raised a white, decorated cup and tossed liquid in the 30-year-old rapper’s direction.
The rapper, at first startled and visibly in disbelief, transformed into a fastball-throwing southpaw and launched the microphone at the woman. Despite the mic being thrown, the song continued to run.
Security quickly intervened while Cardi B yelled from the stage before the microphone was returned to her and she resumed her show, according to a video shared on Cardi B’s social media page.

It is not immediately known if any charges were filed against the concertgoer.
A TikTok user commented, “It was just a drink. The mic is way worse. Well, at least it showed her lip syncing.”
Another added: “Lmao Cardi B threw her mic without realizing the vocal track was gonna keep going. Why lip sync when you’ve never been able to sing anyway?”
The night before, the rapper, whose real name is Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar Cephus, had thrown a microphone at the DJ at Drai’s nightclub, after she kept getting cut off during her performance, according to a TikTok video.
