American rapper Cardi B is at the centre of a media storm after launching a microphone at a crowd member who left her drenched on stage.
Cardi B, whose real name is Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar Cephus, is a rapper who is best known for tracks such as ‘WAP’ and ‘Bodak Yellow’.
Footage of the ‘I Like It’ rapper on stage in Las Vegas is going viral on social media as it shows an audience member hurling a drink at her.
It’s led to fans rushing to support Cardi and praising her for sticking up for herself.
Let’s check out the video that’s got social media users talking below…
In the video, the 30-year-old rapper can be seen in the middle of singing her 2018 smash hit track ‘Bodak Yellow’.
She raises the microphone up to her face for another verse, before suddenly a spray of liquid is seen hitting her in the face from a drink from a cup in the audience.

The video then continues to show security staff quickly surrounding the person in the crowd – as the track ‘Bodak Yellow’ continues to play.
Cardi appears shocked for a brief second before swinging into action and throwing the microphone at someone in the audience, presumably the drink-tosser.
She is then seen fixing her hair as security appears to handle the situation in the crowd.
The ‘Up’ rapper took to Twitter to retweet a video clip of the incident with the caption: “Jealous A** B****!” which is in reference to her rapper husband Offset’s new song ‘Jealousy’, on which she features.
After the incident took over social media sites, fans of the Washington-born rapper rushed to show their support.
One user wrote: “When y’all going to learn to stop throwing things at artists on stage, Cardi is not the one.”
A second user added: “People seriously need to stop throwing stuff on stage at celebs!”
Whilst a third user commented: “Finally a celebrity fighting back.”
This is not the first time Cardi has been filmed throwing her microphone whilst performing in Las Vegas.
Footage from a previous night also shows her throwing her mic at a DJ, apparently annoyed because they were cutting off her songs too early.
