American rap queen Nicki Minaj faced a startling moment during her Pink Friday 2 World Tour when a fan threw an object at her onstage in Detroit. Can you imagine!
In a video shared on X (formerly Twitter), Minaj, 41, was seen performing “Starships” when a pink item was thrown at her from the crowd. Reacting quickly, Minaj blocked the object with her hand, picked it up, and tossed it back into the audience before continuing her performance.
While Minaj appeared shocked by the incident, she still resumed her performance without missing a beat.
This incident adds Minaj to a list of stars who have experienced similar occurrences during their performances.
In a separate incident in June 2023, Bebe Rexha was struck on the forehead with a phone during her concert in New York City. The perpetrator was arrested on several charges, including assault and harassment. Rexha sustained a split eyebrow that required stitches and was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment.
Addressing the concerning trend of objects being thrown at performers, Charlie Puth and Adele have both spoken out against such behavior. Puth emphasized the disrespect and danger it poses, while Adele sternly warned against such actions, emphasizing the need to respect performers’ safety and show etiquette.
