Bebe Rexha Says ‘Tour Must Go On’ Ahead of Philadelphia Show 2 Days After Being Hit in the Face
The 'Meant to Be' singer had to get stitches above her eye after a man, who has since been arrested, threw a phone at her during her New York City show Sunday night
Bebe Rexha is gearing up for her Philadelphia concert just two days after she was struck in the face by a cellphone while performing at the Rooftop at Pier 17 in New York City on Sunday night.
"Although the show ended in an unfortunate way it was still an amazing show in my hometown," the Bebe artist captioned a carousel of Instagram photos on Tuesday. "Thank you so much New York. I love you. The Tour must go on!!! Philly next! Which show [are] you coming to?!"
Rexha is set to perform Tuesday night at The Fillmore in Philadelphia.
The "I'm Good (Blue)" singer, who is currently in the middle of the North American leg of her Best F*n Night of My Life Tour, previously told fans she was "good" in a TikTok video posted one day after the attack.
"I'm good, yeah, I'm feeling alright," she sang in the clip while removing her sunglasses, revealing her black eye and stitches.
The three-time Grammy Award nominee also posted photos of her injuries to Instagram with a similar caption, giving a thumbs up in one of the pictures.
