"Im good," she captioned the post.

The singer clutched her face before falling to her knees in pain and being ushered off the stage.

NYPD officers responded to the scene and arrested the alleged assailant, Nicolas Malvagna, who was charged with assault, aggravated harassment, attempted assault, and harassment.

Malvagna was freed without bail following an arraignment Monday, according to the New York Post. Prosecutors said at the arraignment that Malvagna threw the phone for his own amusement.

Rexha launched her Best F'n Night of My Life tour in May. She is scheduled to perform Tuesday in Philadelphia.
