"He slapped me so hard that he scratched the inside of my eye," she told her Twitter followers as a clip of the incident went viral. "He’s never coming to a show again.

"Thank you to the fans for being spectacular tonight in LA though!!" she added.

Fans quickly took to the comments to send Ava their love and support, with one writing: "What????? Omg! We hope you are well! We love you, queen."

"The security guard tackled him and literally THREW him down the stairs. Wild!!! It happened so fast, you can see here she couldn’t even open her eyes but she STILL did M&G. I love you so much," they continued, adding a snap with the singer."

"I don't know what exactly happened but first bebe rexha now you? why is violence starting to increase at concerts people are paying to be at? hope you're good <3," the fan wrote underneath Ava's tweet.

The news comes after fellow popstar Bebe Rexha also suffered an injury at the hands of one of her fans recently.

Bebe, 33, was performing in New York City on Sunday night when a man threw a phone at the singer, striking her in the face.

The Meant To Be hitmaker was making her way to the front of the stage when the incident happened and she fell to her knees in pain, with her head down.
