Bebe Rexha, the popular American singer and songwriter, recently made headlines after an incident at her concert in New York.
During the concert, a phone was thrown at Bebe, hitting her in the face and causing injury. Despite the setback, Bebe flaunted a brave smile and shared a health update with her fans via Instagram.
What happened to Bebe Rexha’s eye?
The incident happened during Bebe Rexha’s concert at the ‘The Rooftop’ on Pier 17 in Lower Manhattan. The concert was going smoothly until a man in the audience flung his phone at the singer, hitting her on the face.
The man claims that he did not intend to harm the singer-songwriter and that his actions were part of a viral trend aimed at gaining attention rather than causing injury.
Fans were not pleased with the turns of events, and the show came to an abrupt end. Bebe immediately collapsed on her knees after being hit and was rushed to hospital by her crew members.
Fans who attended the concert expressed their disappointment and shock at how the show ended, with some describing it as an unsettling experience.
Bebe Rexha’s health update
The injury was severe enough to require three stitches, according to the statement from Bebe’s mother. However, the singer remained positive and took to Instagram to post a selfie that showed the stitches.
In the picture, Bebe was spotted with two bandages on her left brow as she smiled for the camera even after the unfortunate turn of events. The picture features the singer holding up a thumbs-up beside her face as the caption read:
“I am good”
The phone from the man hit the singer’s left eye, so that area looked extremely swollen and bruised in the photos shared by Bebe on Instagram. The bruise also turned purple over the course of a few hours.
