Rihanna has been caught in camera apparently hitting a fan in the face with her microphone during a concert in Birmingham.
During the middle of her performance, the 25-year-old singer stepped down off the stage to grace fans with her magical touch, but a fan grabbed her hand.
To this the singer lost control and retaliated by striking the unidentified person in the face with her mic, the Mirror reported.
Fans criticised her on Twitter for her act, but RiRi responded that she did so because the person was not letting let her go.
One fan mocked her violent reaction by comparing her to Beyonce - who was spanked by an intrusive fan last month.
