50 Cent claimed he did not “intentionally strike” one of his fans in the face after he angrily launched his microphone into the crowd during his concert Wednesday.
“Let’s be very clear, as I told LAPD this afternoon, my client Curtis would never intentionally strike anyone with a microphone,” his attorney, Scott Leemon, tells Page Six in a statement Thursday.
“Anyone saying something different doesn’t have all the facts and is misinformed,” the lawyer adds.
As Page Six previously reported, the hip-hop artist — born Curtis James Jackson III — was handed several broken mics to use throughout his performance at the Crypto.com arena in Los Angeles when he couldn’t take the frustration anymore.
Footage captured by fans shows 50 Cent, 48, violently launching a mic into the packed crowd, subsequently striking concertgoer Bryhana Monegain square in the head.

Monegain, a radio host for Power 106, sustained a gruesome injury on her head, which had to be stitched up and wrapped with gauze, according to photos obtained by TMZ.
Grisly photos also show Moregain’s hands and shirt covered in blood from the open gash on her face.
A source close to 50 told TMZ that Monegain wasn’t meant to be in the restricted section, although it’s unclear how that excuses his behavior.
Monegain reportedly filed a police report Wednesday night and the “Candy Shop” hitmaker has been named a criminal battery suspect.
Fiddy isn’t the only rapper to catch heat for tossing a mic at a fan. Cardi B made headlines last month when she chucked her mic at an audience member for throwing liquid on her during a show in Las Vegas.

The “Bodak Yellow” rapper was listed as a suspect for battery after the person who was hit reported the incident to the Las Vegas Metro PD.
Video later materialized of Cardi asking her fans to “splash” water “in [her] p—y” and the DJ directing the audience to “splash her down.”
However, the Grammy winner clarified that she was angry at the drink-flinger for throwing the beverage right in her face.
“I don’t want to look [like] that ghetto bitch,” Cardi said. “I said splash my p—y, not my face, bitch.”
Cardi was not charged for the incident, and the microphone she tossed at the concertgoer was auctioned off for charity, selling for a staggering $99,900 on eBay.
