Microphone Thrown By Cardi B Sells On Ebay For $99,900
HOLLYWOOD, CA - NOVEMBER 14: Cardi B performs onstage during the Fashion Nova x Cardi B Collaboration Launch Event at Boulevard3 on November 14, 2018 in Hollywood, California.
If you’re ever in the situation where a celebrity throws an object at you, you might want to save the item because it could result in a HUGE payday. Last week, a microphone that was used by Cardi B as a throwing projectile was used as evidence. This week, it was used as an auctioned item for charity that raised $99,900!
Ebay Sale
The reason why this microphone was so special was because it was the same microphone Cardi B threw into a crowd after she was splashed by a fan in the face. After Las Vegas police decided they were not going to pursue the Bodak Yellow rapper, the owner of The Wave (the audio company contracted for Cardi B’s show) had the genius idea to sell it on Ebay. Before you judge The Wave for capitalizing on the profits, they decided to donate all the proceeds to Friendship Circle Las Vegas (charity dedicated to special needs kids) and the Wounded Warrior Project (charity dedicated to injured veterans).
The microphone started at $500 and collected more than 120 bids. The bidding closed Monday night with the final asking price of $99,900. So if you are ever in a financial bind and are looking for ways to get some extra cash, just go to a concert and splash the artist with some water. It may result in a $100,000 microphone being thrown at you.
Drai’s Beachclub Incident
On July 29th, Cardi performed at Drai’s Beachclub & Nightclub. She asked fans to throw some water at her in an attempt to cool off in the scorching Vegas heat. One person in the crowd, however, also threw ice with their water in the cup which Cardi responded by throwing her mic at the area where it was coming from in the crowd. The mic hit a bystander who later filed a police report claiming she was not the one who threw the ice water cup at the rapper.

Cardi B: 5 Times She's Tried A TikTok Challenge
Cardi B knows how to run social media and she will flock to the nearest trend with her own twist. While the Grammy-winning rapper is present on all social media platforms, her TikToks are the place where her core fans can see her personality shine. She also reminds us that she is just like us when jumps on the same challenges that go viral.
The rapper has consistently used social media throughout her career with her last two features became viral. In the remix to GloRilla’s “Tomorrow” Cardi’s first 10 lines created a challenge shared by several fans across many social media platforms.
“Ridin’ with my twin and ‘nem (skrrt), and we all look good as f— (gang)/She say she my opp but I don’t know her, had to look her up (f— is you?)/I know that I’m rich, but I can’t help it, b—-, I’m hood as f— (woo) /I’ve been on these bitches neck so long, sometimes my foot get stuck (ah)/ I can’t put you in my business (no), you might wish me dead tomorrow (yeah)/Bitches be on d— today, sing every word of “Up” tomorrow (Up) /Bitch, I still got cases opened, keep your mouth shut tomorrow (shh)/ Play with me today then get some sleep, you know it’s up tomorrow (woo)/ Fake bitch, that’s why my friend f—– on your n—- (ah-ha)/ Both you bitches p—-, I think y’all should scissor (ah, ha, ha)/She bought a chain, I bought the same one, even bigger (bitch, it’s bigger)/She throwin’ shots, that’s how I know I got her triggered (ah),” Cardi raps.
Cardi’s most recent feature was with Latto on the remix “Put It On Da Floor Again.” While her latest remix didn’t have as many viral lines as “Tomorrow 2,” Cardi still brought her A game on her verse. Lines such as “I ain’t smokin’ on no za’, lil’ bitch, I’m smokin’ on you/Put your bestie in a pack and now I’m smokin’ her too.”
“N—-, cry for what? Bitch, these are Denim Tears (huh)/I’m sexy dancin’ in the house, I feel like Britney Spears,” Cardi raps later in the song.
The remix marks the first collaboration between Latto and Cardi B. The song also serves as Cardi’s first release of 2023. Last year, the Grammy winner released one lead song, which was “Hot S—,” which included Chicago-bred emcees Kanye West and Lil Durk. Cardi also hopped on Rosalía’s “Despechá” remix and Summer Walker and SZA’s “No Love (Extended),” Dougie B, and Kay Flock’s “Shake It.”
Take a look at five times that Cardi B tried a TikTok challenge below:

Rich also worked at several clubs in Tampa as a host/promoter where he would meet and work alongside Davy Rolando, who would be the one who would help him get a job at WiLD 94.1. From there, Rich worked his way up from Promotions assistant to promotions coordinator, to eventually full-time on-air. Rich loves to write about his favorite Tampa food spots, concert reviews, and the WiLDest Florida man/woman stories.
