Poor Bebe Rexha was forced to throw 10 people out of her latest gig as more objects have been hurled at her while on stage.
Last year, the 34-year-old singer filed assault charges after being left with a black eye after being struck mid-song and rushed off stage by medics.
This incident launched a spate of flying objects at gigs, with everyone from Adam Lambert to Harry Styles being hit with various unwelcome items.
Keen not to repeat history, when items were thrown Bebe reportedly paused her performance in Green Bay, Wisconsin at the Summer Fun Days Showcase on Saturday.
Fans waited as 10 people were removed over the course of the gig, with the I’m Good (Blue) hitmaker halting the show twice.
Bebe said: ‘Out, Out… OR if you want to hit me in the face, I happened to have pressed charges to the other guy, I’d love to become richer, so go right ahead honey.

‘But I’m not… I’m not inviting that, please, it was a joke,’ she quickly added to discourage the behaviour.
A clip of the incident was shared by TikToker @donavanrose, where he showed patient gig-goers standing at the barrier as people were escorted out.
Donovan wrote: ‘Bebe Rexha had to stop her show TWICE tonight because of people throwing things on stage and in the audience, like 10 people were escorted out because of it throughout the show.’
‘There were like 3 water bottles/items that Bebe didn’t even see that flew RIGHT by here and could’ve hit her, her crew, or audience,’ the tiktoker continued in the comments.
Adding to his TikTok, Donovan said: ‘Let’s STOP throwing things at concerts, it really is THAT simple.’

Viewers wholeheartedly agreed, calling the behaviour ‘ridiculous’ and ‘disgusting’ and praising Bebe for handling the incident swiftly.
Kemy joked: ‘Bebe Rexha gonna have to do concerts with those COVID screens at check out counters surrounding her stage to avoid getting stuff thrown at her.’
‘Artists are going to start putting netting in front of the stage to prevent this stupidity. People need to chill,’ shared bsimko.
Omar added: ‘Absolutely disgusting that people think it’s funny to do this.’
Last June, police arrested and charged Nicolas Malvagna, 27, from Manalapan, New Jersey, for attacking the star.

Bebe was performing her tour at The Rooftop at Pier 17 when she was struck by a phone, causing her to grab her face in pain and end the show early.
According to Rolling Stone, the man reportedly explained his motives and said: ‘I was trying to see if I could hit her with the phone at the end of the show because it would be funny.’
Days after the incident, Bebe posted a triumphant picture on her Instagram and showed off the injury with the caption: ‘I’m good.’
