June 19 (UPI) — Bebe Rexha, who played The Complex in Salt Lake City this month, was hit in the face by a phone Sunday night at her concert in New York.
The 33-year-old singer was performing at the Rooftop at Pier 17 venue as part of her Best F’n Night of My Life tour.
Rexha was on stage when a person in the crowd threw a phone that struck her on the side of her face under her left eye, as seen in a fan video. The singer clutched her face before falling to her knees in pain and being escorted off stage.
Another video shows Rexha give a slight wave to the crowd, who chanted her name in support, while being ushered away.
TMZ said NYPD officers responded to the scene and arrested Nicolas Malvagna, the person who allegedly threw the phone, for the assault.
Rexha launched her Best F’n Night of My Life tour in May. She is next scheduled to perform Tuesday in Philadelphia. She played The Complex on June 9, a Friday.
The tour is in support of Rexha’s most recent album, Bebe, released in April.
