Bebe Rexha took the stage in Philadelphia on Tuesday, just a few days after a concertgoer threw a cell phone at her face.
The "I'm Good" singer joked that she "can't get another bruise" while speaking to the crowd at The Fillmore.
"Are we going to have a good show tonight? Yes, we fucking are," she said in a video captured by a local radio host.
"Do we let people slow us down, Philly? No," she continued. "Just no phones at my face tonight, please, I beg of you."
As Insider previously reported, Rexha was struck on Sunday night during her show at Pier 17 in New York City. She was hospitalized and reportedly needed three stitches for her injury.
She also sported a black eye in a video shared following the incident.
Amid an ongoing investigation, the NYPD told Insider in a statement that New Jersey resident Nicolas Malvagna, 27, has been charged with assault.
According to the criminal complaint, Malvanga told the police that he was trying to hit Rexha with his phone "because it would be funny," per Billboard.
