Fame can be put to good use and so the organizers of the event took THAT Cardi B microphone, which she threw into the audience, and auctioned it off for charity. Last time we checked, the bid was just $100 short of $100K…
What Mic Are We Talking About?

Last Saturday, the “WAP” singer performed outdoors at the Drai Beach Club & Nightclub. Dressed in a dazzling orange dress, Cardi B and the DJ asked fans to throw water on her, and the video showed her asking the audience to put water on her p— too. It seems the moment was well and truly over when a fan threw his icy drink at the rapper, surprising him, while he was performing “Bodak Yellow.” Also, this made her face fall, and Cardi B was not happy as she immediately became angry.
Since then, videos and memes of the rapper turning into “Lady Liberty” and knocking over a microphone at a concert audience have gone viral on social media, though one video shows the “villain” apologizing, saying “I’m sorry, I’m sorry…” Although many who claimed he got the woman, new reports now suggest he hit the wrong person, who went and filed a police report against the singer.
According to Insider, a concertgoer reported the “battery” to authorities a day after the incident, but no arrests were made. The person in question told authorities that he was at a concert on Saturday and “was hit by an object thrown from the stage.”
The item, a microphone, is now up for auction on eBay. Here are a few reminders:

Bidding Reaches Nearly $100K For Cardi B’s “Mic Drop.”

Giving new meaning to the phrase, “mic drop”, the event’s organizer, Scott Fisher, decided to put his fame to good use. Fisher, who owns a sound production company in Nevada, has 16 identical microphones. But the one she put up for auction was thrown into the crowd by rapper Cardi B on Saturday after a fan threw a drink at her during a concert.
Fisher, who owns a sound production company in Nevada, has 16 identical microphones. When the video of Cardi B throwing the mic into the crowd started going viral, Fisher posted a snippet on Facebook, writing, “It’s so fun to wake up to multiple people sending me a link to a video of Cardi B slapping one of me. microphone on someone.”
When many people started approaching him about microphones, showing interest in buying them, Fisher decided to do something about it. But first, he checks if the same microphone can be detected, since there are many microphones on the show. According to the Washington Post, he learned that the microphone had been marked with white tape, with “PLAY” written in Sharpie, during a sound check.
When he put it up for auction on August 1st, before going to bed, he saw that the bids had reached $500, but now in just a few days, the bids were only $100 against $100,000!
“A Piece of Hip Hop Infamy” For Charity

The 55-year-old Fisher called the microphone a “hip hop piece of ugliness” on the eBay auction page, stunned by the soaring bids, given that Shure Axient digital microphones typically sell for around $2,000.
He had used eBay to sell long stock before, but never something with a celebrity angle to it. In the meantime, the microphone will be put to good use as he decided to sell it to raise money for two charities.
One of them is Friendship Circle Las Vegas, a group that supports people with special needs. The second is the Wounded Warrior Project, a non-profit organization dedicated to programs for veterans and service members. While the increase in bids makes him happy, Fisher is also cautious because he wants to make sure that all bids are legitimate and not just pranks.
The auction will end in 4 days and 7 hours, at the time of writing, although the $99,900 bid has been up for a few hours now. Let’s see how well Cardi B’s fame helps raise money for charity.
Meanwhile, Cardi B has already moved on!
