Incident at Mon Laferte’s Concert in Las Vegas

Chilean-Mexican singer Mon Laferte, real name Norma Monserrat Bustamante Laferte, experienced an unexpected incident during her performance in Las Vegas. On Thursday, November 5, while on her Femme Fatale Tour at the Pearl Concert Theater, a concertgoer threw a cell phone onto the stage, hitting her in the face.

Fan-shared footage on Instagram by ABC7 Los Angeles shows Laferte, 43, holding her left eye after the impact. Despite the disruption, her dancers continued the performance as she moved to the back of the stage. Venue staff subsequently escorted an unidentified woman away.

After being escorted off stage by two crew members, Laferte managed to return and finish the show. On the following day, she updated her fans on X, assuring them she was fine and emphasizing the incident wasn’t done with harmful intent. “But please don’t throw anything onto the stage ever again,” Laferte insisted, while also reminding fans about her upcoming shows at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles.

This incident positions Laferte among several artists facing similar disruptions. Bebe Rexha experienced an assault in New York City when a fan launched a phone at her. Similarly, Harry Styles encountered multiple objects during his 2023 European tour. Kelsea Ballerini was struck by a bracelet in Boise, Idaho, and Morgan Wallen had a phone hurled at him in Denver’s Mile High Stadium.
