Grammy-nominated pop star Mon Laferte was thrown off stage during a recent show after being hit by what appeared to be a cell phone thrown on stage by an audience member.
In a video captured and shared online by fans, the 43-year-old Femme Fatale The album artist can be seen clutching her left eye on stage after being hit by a projectile on stage last week in Las Vegas.
The Mexican musician then walks to the back of the stage while her dancers continue the show, and two crew members meet her at the back of the set to escort her backstage at the city’s Pearl Concert Theater.

The footage also shows concert staff escorting an unidentified woman away from the stage following the incident.
In a follow-up post Friday, Laferte addressed her condition in Spanish, telling fans that she was “fine” and that “the girl meant no harm,” according to an English translation on X.
“But please don’t ever throw anything on stage again,” Laferte continued. “Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, see you at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles! And that concludes the American tour. Love you all.”
When reached for comment, a representative for Laferté emphasized Weekly Entertainment to the singer’s aforementioned statement about X.
Laferte is far from the only artist to have been hit by a projectile on stage. In June 2023, pop artist Bebe Rexha was hit in the head by a cell phone thrown by another spectator, who was later arrested.
A month later, musician Harry Styles was also hit in the face by an object thrown by a fan on stage during one of his big concerts.
