Singer Bebe Rexha has provided her fans with a glimpse of her injuries after being rushed to the hospital on Sunday.
TheSay My Name songstress received medical attention after being hit in the face by a phone while onstage at her concert.
Rexha, 33, was performing at The Rooftop at Pier 17 in New York City when she was struck by a mobile phone which was thrown at her from the crowd. The star was hit in the face at around 10pm, WABC reports, resulting in Rexha having to cut her show short.
Rexha has now updated fans with two new photos on Instagram showing her injuries. She captioned the post: ”I’m good”.
In the first snap, the singer gave a thumbs up to the camera, sporting a smile and heavy bruising around her eye.
The second picture seemed to have been taken straight after the assault, with Rexha still donning glittery stage makeup. A cut ran across the star’s eyebrow and her eye was starting to swell.

Nicolas Malvagna, 27, from Manalapan, New Jersey, has been arrested and charged with assault in connection to the incident.
Malvagana was identified and charged with felony assault, and has an arraignment scheduled for Monday afternoon.
Another concertgoer, Ross Bernaud, tweeted a video of the star leaving the stage after the assault.
He shared: “This is Bebe Rexha being rushed out of the concert venue here in NYC after someone threw a f***ing phone and hit her face as she was leaving the stage.
“We were all having a hell of a good time and so was Bebe, we were all having a blast, I mean who would even do that??? We hope you’re OK.”
