50 Cent Says Striking Concert Goer In Face With Thrown Microphone Wasn’t Intentional

The Queen rapper’s attorney issued a statement on his behalf.

50 Cent claims that he didn’t “intentionally strike” a fan during a recent show in Los Angeles.

In a statement via his attorney, the Queen rapper denied anyone at his show was supposed to be on the receiving end of a microphone he threw into the crowd on Wednesday night (August 30).

“Let’s be very clear, as I told LAPD this afternoon, my client Curtis would never intentionally strike anyone with a microphone,” Scott Leemon, his lawyer, told Page Six in the statement. “Anyone saying something different doesn’t have all the facts and is misinformed.”

During his concert at Crypto.com arena in L.A., 50 was reportedly handed several mics throughout his performance. He then tossed one of them into the audience when his frustration took over.

Footage of the incident shows the 48-year-old launching the mic, which then struck concertgoer Bryhana Monegain in the head. According to TMZ, Monegain sustained a gruesome injury on her head that required stitches and gauze to clean up.

Subsequently, Monegain reportedly filed a police report, which named the rapper as the suspect of a criminal battery allegation.
