Cardi B's lost Batteries - Sued for throwing a mic at fans

Cardi B, the renowned rapper, found herself at the centre of online mockery following a microphone incident during her performance. Viewers observed an unexpected twist when she hurled her microphone at a fan who had splashed water on her during her show at Drai's Beachclub in Las Vegas, Nevada. It was then noticed that her vocals continued to play in the background, revealing that she had been lip-syncing.

This amusing turn of events led social media users to draw comparisons with the infamous 80s pop duo, Milli Vanilli, who gained notoriety for lip-syncing their songs during live performances. Milli Vanilli's Grammy Award for Best New Artist was revoked after their lip-syncing scandal came to light, exposing that they weren't the actual singers behind the tracks.

Notably, other artists like Bon Jovi have also experienced similar mishaps, where vocals played on despite their microphones being off. For instance, in 2019, John Bon Jovi inadvertently kept singing while his microphone was off during a performance of 'It's My Life'.

Fans and netizens couldn't resist poking fun at Cardi B's moment, making playful comparisons to past lip-syncing debacles. However, some loyal supporters came to her defence, highlighting that she still delivers live performances, unlike Milli Vanilli.

As for the incident itself, the fan whom Cardi B accidentally hit with the microphone reported the matter to the Las Vegas Police Department. So far, no arrests or citations have been issued in connection with the incident. The situation added a surprising twist to the performance and became a talking point on social media, where fans and critics alike shared their thoughts and opinions.
