The microphone that Cardi B used to clonk someone at her Vegas show is now up for sale.
For those who missed it, viral footage over the weekend captured the moment the “Be Careful” rapper retaliated against a fan who threw water on her. Initially, Cardi had asked fans to splash her while performing at Drai’s Beach Club in Las Vegas but made it clear not to make it hit her face. After the water splashing stopped, one fan wanted to keep it going and caught the rapper completely off guard.
Cardi instantly threw her microphone at the woman and it seemingly struck her. The woman was escorted out and Cardi continued performing. Although the woman has since filed a report, the audio production company, that provided the sound equipment for the show is now trying to turn this negative situation into a positive one. According to TMZ, The Wave in Sin City is now putting the mic up for sale to benefit a couple of charities.

Scott Fisher who says he provides audio support for most of the major nightclubs in Vegas, including Drai’s, told the outlet that it wasn’t even that hard to find the mic after the show because the white tape across the bottom of it says “MAIN.” Not only does it still works despite throwing it into the crowd, but overall it’s all intact.
As of this Wednesday, the eBay listing has 47 bids. It’s also going up for $50,800.00 + a $20 shipping cost.
So Where Would The Proceeds Go?
Scott tells TMZ that the sale proceeds will be split between 2 charities: the Wounded Warrior Project and a local Vegas charity called Friendship Circle Las Vegas which will benefit teens and young adults with special needs.
What Has Cardi B Said Since The Incident?
So far, a representative for Cardi B hasn’t commented on the actuation. The artist has also yet to address the incident directly, but she did retweet a video of it. However, following the ordeal, she shared a video of her twerking in Vegas with her hubbington Offset, completely unbothered.
