Rihanna Hits Crowd Member With Microphone At Birmingham Gig - Watch Now!

Barbados-born beauty Rihanna is usually one of the coolest cats in music, but if you mess with her mid-performance, expect to see another side - as witnessed by a fan at her gig in Birmingham’s LG Arena, who was hit with a microphone after grabbing her arm!
The superstar is halfway through her series of summer UK tour dates, which kicked off with an epic gig in Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium (click here to read more!) and sees her performing in a plethora of the country’s stadiums and arenas.
RiRi loves performing (though she may have a tendency to enjoy being backstage more!), and she loves her fans, but when the one gets in the way of another, prepare to see a Good Girl go Bad! Or, at least her microphone turn into a weapon...
After leaving the stage to get a bit closer to her fans during the Brummy gig, she walked - escorted by her security - to the barrier, whilst singing and shaking hands/rubbing palms with the front row, which was unsurprisingly screaming it’s head off.
After one fan grabbed onto her a bit harder and for a bit longer than she’d have hoped, her security was left to sort things out - and they managed to do sweet FA. So, taking matters into her own hands, Rihanna delivered what looked like a swift blow with her mic.
As with every single thing that happens in the universe these days, the scenes were caught on camera, and can be seen on YouTube right now - we’ve embedded the video below to make it even easier for you to watch. Gig-goers are not the luckiest guys at the moment - just ask Miguel fans!
