Pop star Bebe Rexha has reassured her fans that she is “good” after she was hit in the face by a mobile phone while performing on stage.

On Monday, the 33-year-old singer posted a selfie on her Instagram which showed a large purple bruise on her eyelid and stitching tape on her eyebrow.
In another picture, which appeared to be taken on the night of the gig, a long cut could be seen underneath her eyebrow while her eyelid looked swollen.
However, she let her nearly 11 million followers know she was doing all right, by captioning the post: “I’m good.”
Friends and famous faces were among those offering their support to the musician including online personality Bella Poarch writing: “Sending love your way. Feel better soon!”
