Bebe Rexha Philadelphia Concert: Singer Asks 'No Phones On My Face’, Takes Extreme Precaution

Bebe Rexha had a pretty rough week. Imagine having a phone directly landing on your face while performing on stage-and returning not more than a week after. The dedication the singer has is unmatched.

The Grammy-nominated singer is back on her "Best F'n Night Tour" after being hit with a cell phone in her eye last Saturday in New York City. However, in Bebe Rexha's Philadelphia Concert, she exercised caution first and foremost.

"Are we gonna have a good show tonight? Yes, we f**king are!" the "I'm Good" singer shouted, prompting the crowd to roar in response. "Can we let people slow us down, Philly? No."

As for the Sunday night phone-throwing incident, she gave a firm warning and plea to the crowd for any rowdy antics. "Just no phones on my face tonight, please. I beg of you," she asked the crowd. "Thank you, Philly."

Evidently, the crowd at Bebe Rexha's Philadelphia concert wasn't as rowdy as the one in New York City as the singer left the venue unscathed and without any bruises.

Before addressing the said incident, Bebe paused for a while to ask someone to wipe a puddle of a stage. "Can we get someone to clean some of this? We almost ate sh*t, like, three times," Rexha said. "I can't get another bruise."

On Sunday night, Jun. 18, 2023, a rowdy concertgoer threw a phone at Bebe Rexha while she was performing on stage. The "I'm Good (Blue)" singer then collapsed on stage before she was escorted out.

Concertgoer Alex Chavez, who captured the now-viral video talked to Good Morning America and recalled the encounter.

"They turned on the lights and we started heading for the exits. That was definitely a hard hit and shouldn't have happened after such a great night," he said.

The attacker, 27-year-old Manalapan, New Jersey native Nicolas Malvagna, was subsequently arrested and charged with two counts of assault, one count of harassment, one count of aggravated harassment and one count of attempted assault,

A day after the vicious attack, Bebe Rexha posted a TikTok video showing her bruised faced while jokingly singing her hit song "I'm Good (Blue)."
