Cardi B's microphone, which she threw at an attendee who tossed a drink at her, is now up for sale.
The "object-throwing" incident Cardi B suffered from happened while she was performing her hit track "Bodak Yellow" at Drai's Beachclub in Las Vegas Saturday. It led her to stop her number and throw her phone at the man, who was later escorted out of the venue and received charges.
Cardi B's Microphone For Sale
The owner of the Wave Sound Company, who provided Cardi B's microphone for her concert, recently revealed that he decided to auction it off on eBay.
Scott Fischer previously expressed concern that the microphone probably had damages after the rapper threw it. He reportedly assumed it was broken based on the video he saw when it was recovered.
Per KTNV Las Vegas, he confirmed that he put the item up for sale in pursuit of raising money for the two charitable causes he wants to help out. According to the report, the sale of the microphone will go directly to Friendship Circle in Las Vegas, which assists veterans and special needs children, and Wounded Warrior Project.
Fischer revealed he had already provided microphones to several musicians in the past, but the recent incident became an unprecedented situation for him.
"She treated my property like junk, and even if she wrote me a check right then and there," he said. "It still could impact my income."
How Much Is Cardi B's Microphone?
In a separate interview with a news outlet, Fischer said his microphone was easy to track down because it has a white tape across the bottom with the text, "MAIN."
On the eBay listing, the starting bid on Cardi B's microphone is $500 - though its original cost was $1,000.
The attendee who tossed a drink at Cardi B received charges after the incident: two counts of third-degree assault, third-degree attempted assault, second-degree aggravated harassment, and second-degree harassment. The New York District Attorney's Office confirmed the arrest after the event.
According to the criminal complaint released following the arrest, the attendee reportedly wanted to see if he could hit the female rapper with a phone at the end of the show "because it would be funny." Cardi B has not directly addressed the event yet.
