Miranda Lambert appears to remain unapologetic following the backlash over a recent incident where she publicly called out a fan during her Vegas residency concert.

As previously reported, the country music star was performing her song Tin Man when she abruptly stopped the show to address a fan who was taking a selfie. Lambert, spotting the woman in the crowd, paused the music and called her out in front of everyone.

“I’m gonna stop for a minute,” Lambert announced. She then motioned toward the fan and said, “These girls are worried about their selfie and not listening to the song. It’s pissing me off a little bit. Sorry, I don’t like it at all. We’re here to hear some country music tonight. I’m singing some country damn music.”

After the fan put her phone away, Lambert resumed her performance. Many attendees cheered in support of Lambert’s decision to confront the “selfie-takers.”

However, during a more recent concert, Lambert again addressed the situation when she noticed a fan in the audience wearing a t-shirt that read, “Shoot tequila, not selfies.” She appeared to approve of the shirt, drawing further criticism for what some felt was her lack of remorse and continuation of the issue.

“Wow! Can’t believe this is her response to her rudeness,” one social media user commented, reflecting the sentiments of many who found Lambert’s behavior inappropriate. While some concertgoers supported Lambert’s stance, others on social media voiced their disapproval.

“Way to embarrass and shame your loyal fans who adore you,” one Twitter user wrote. Another added, “She could’ve poked fun and posed in the selfie and then encouraged them to be in the moment after that. Not cool.”

Others argued that taking a selfie is part of the concert experience. “Going to a concert is about creating an experience and a memory. If someone wants to take a picture to document that memory, they should be able to,” another user shared.

Adela Calin, the fan Lambert called out, later spoke about the incident and shared the photo she had taken. “It was 30 seconds at most,” Calin said, explaining that she and her group quickly took the picture and were about to sit back down when Lambert interrupted the performance.

Calin admitted she was “appalled” by Lambert’s actions. “It felt like I was back at school with the teacher scolding me for doing something wrong and telling me to sit down back in my place,” she said. “I feel like she was determined to make us look like we were young, immature, and vain. But we were just grown women in our 30s to 60s trying to take a picture.”

The incident has sparked widespread debate about fan behavior at concerts and the expectations artists have for their audiences. While Lambert’s unapologetic stance has earned her support from some, others argue her approach alienated loyal fans who simply wanted to capture a moment at her show.
