(Courtesy: @giiikondrackiii via Spectee /TMX) Singer Bebe Rexha was hit in the head with a cell phone when a fan threw it on stage during her gig at Pier 17 in New York on Sunday, June 18.

Bebe Rexha believes she was the victim of a hate crime, discriminated against for her ethnicity.

The popstar shared a series of emotional videos on her Instagram story Saturday, documenting the incident that took place at Munich International Airport.

"The supervisor on the flight of Lufthansa is threatening me," she said tearfully to the camera, makeup smudged underneath her eyes.

Tagging the German airline directly, Rexha wrote to her story, "@Lufthansa I've been threatened because I thought the security agent was Albanian. I spoke to him in Albanian asking where to get my ticket and now he is banning me from the flight."

"I believe this to be a hate crime because I am Albanian," Rexha claimed in a written statement. Born in Brooklyn, New York, Rexha's family is of Albanian descent. 

"He would not let me take his name. He continued to mentally abuse me to make me feel like he was more powerful [than] he was."

"I have never been so emotionally drained," the "I'm Good" singer wrote in an additional story. "@Lufthansa has direct messaged me but I urge them to do a full investigation on finding out who this man who was abusing his power is. An ‘I’m sorry' is not gonna cut it this time."
