Rihanna assaults fan with microphone – video

By Alexandra Heilbron on June 20, 2013 | 10 Comments


During a concert in Birmingham, England on Monday night, Rihanna violently hit a fan in the face with her microphone — and it was caught on video. Rihanna was strolling past the front row of the audience with her security detail following closely behind. Her left arm was extended towards the crowd, touching hands with her fans, when one excited fan grabbed her arm. Without hesitating, Rihanna aggressively slammed the microphone, which was in her right hand, down on the fan. The concert was the same one to which Rihanna turned up two hours late. The clip, which was posted on YouTube, has gotten almost 100,000 views, with some people commenting that she should have let her beefy security guards do their job instead of taking matters into her own hands, suggesting that the fan could sue Rihanna if she sustained injuries. One wrote: “How can you hit a fan that was excited too see you? Don’t go too the crowd if you don’t expect too be grabbed fans made you.”

    I guess she learned something from C.Brown. I really can’t stand her. and believe she does not have much talent. All of her songs sound alike

    If you listen, the singing keeps going even though the mike is hitting the fan and nowhere near her lips.

    Agree with Linda. Rihanna is trashy. This proves it. And she can’t sing in tune, that’s why she’s lip synching.

    We, the fans made them who they are and we the fans can take away all that our support provided for them.

    I say sue for 5 million, settle out of court for 3 million. Works for me, and those around the assaulted fan should sue for trauma and the inability to attend another concert in the future without fear of being assaulted by the performer. Those should go the class action route and join together for an easy million a piece. Then every ticket holder to said performance that she was 2 hours late for should also sue for her lateness. It is about time we started reminding stars that they are just regular people like the rest of us and are not entitled to special treatment, or excused from unlawful assaults upon others.

    Wow. This girl is crazy! What ever happened to the “Umbrella” singer. All this fame has gotten to her head. She really needs to get it together or shes going to loose all her fans. But then again..wonder if she even cares.
