Fan throws cell phone at Drake as he performs on stage, hitting him

Drake once sang, "Call me on my cellphone," but never once did he say to fling one at him while he's on stage performing.

That is exactly what appears to have happened in Chicago on Wednesday, amounting to the latest incident in an alarmingly long list of similar situations in the last few weeks.

The "Hotline Bling" rapper was performing at the United Center in the Windy City on his "It's All A Blur Tour" when a cellphone was flung onto the stage, seemingly hitting Drake in the arm, footage posted to social media by a concertgoer showed.

You use to hit me with your cell phone lmfao

What gives people the right to do that ish? Needs to be a very very tall gate that separates the audience from the performer, or some form of protection

[Tigers_and_Tarot]

You know what's gonna happen now? The edge of all performance stages will be equipped with protective clear screens.

1982, Joe Jackson was booed off stage and had garbage thrown at him, opening for The Who.
1984 (?) ACDC at Maple Leaf Gardens, we where dodging whiskey bottles, and empties in the crowd, it was insane.
This has been going on for years, only now, its ok to throw away a $1, 500 phone, daddy will buy me a new one.

Im starting to think that these entertainers are doing this for publicity

[ThouSwell-zxfd]

Likely someone with good musical taste lol

[genez]

Stop calling these people fans. Fans don't try and give someone a concussion with a phone. Or try and murder them with an old school Nokia.

What happened to throwing weed on stage or whatever 80s rock people do i know hippie did mud

[Incogngre]

[shawnjones]

[johnknope]

I don't think that was a fan. Lol.

[thomasmills]

Drake is probably the worst thing to come out of Canada in it's history. i wish they'd thrown rotten fruit.

[dennismclaurin]

Drake could've did a quick throw back, but didn't.

[chrisyu]

LOL Chicago what a city. No wonder Walmart is ditching. People in Chicago are nuts.

WHODOESTHAT&WHY?Guess The celebs HAVE TO PERFORM behind a strong net

[eternalwisdom]

They throw the phones so artist will take a pic an send it back ..but guess th aim jus not there. Lol an drake deseved that he so weird

[b.]

At least this one hit his arm, unlike Bebe Rexha who was given a black eye and laceration by a thrown phone. I hope the thrower gets the full penalty of every charge they can throw at them.

💀💀💀💀💀💀💀 ... Ninja go away for some years then pop up in movies 🎥... U still acting as Drake ... switch it up ...

[thehardertheyfall]

Hahaha I bet y'all didn't know he painted his nails pink 😕😆

[meljor]

People do realize the police can break into any phone to find out who it belongs to... Get your home address from just looking at your maps data lmao. Yes including iPhones.
I got booked one night and those fools came back with 3 different numbers for me to call from going through my contacts. These people are going to find out the hard way like the dude that got charged with felony assault for giving Bebe the black eye 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️
