She halted the song and expressed her frustration, stating, \u201cI\u2019m gonna stop right here for a second\u2026 These girls are worried about their selfie and not listening to the song. It\u2019s p***ing me off a little bit,\u201d as she pointed to the crowd.<\/p>\n<p>This incident caused a mixed reaction among the audience. Some showed their support and applauded Lambert for addressing the issue, while others disapproved of her comment and left the venue in protest. As expected, the online community\u2019s opinions were divided.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4784\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stndnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-28-181738.png\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 685px) 100vw, 685px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stndnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-28-181738.png 685w, https:\/\/www.stndnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-28-181738-300x143.png 300w, https:\/\/www.stndnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-28-181738-150x72.png 150w\" alt=\"\" width=\"685\" height=\"327\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"61d19349f200c0d72243645a3c96435b\" data-index=\"2\"><\/div>\n<p>In a subsequent performance, Lambert stopped the concert again, this time to appreciate a fan wearing a T-shirt that read, \u201cShoot tequila, not selfies.\u201d She made a comment indicating that she approved of the shirt\u2019s message.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, this response only fueled more anger among some of her fans who felt that Lambert had mishandled the situation. They believed that instead of embarrassing and shaming the fans who wanted to take selfies, she could have playfully posed with them and then encouraged them to fully immerse themselves in the concert experience afterward.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4785\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stndnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-28-181745.png\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 662px) 100vw, 662px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stndnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-28-181745.png 662w, https:\/\/www.stndnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-28-181745-249x300.png 249w, https:\/\/www.stndnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Screenshot-2023-07-28-181745-124x150.png 124w\" alt=\"\" width=\"662\" height=\"799\" \/><\/p>\n<p>One of the fans who was called out, Adela Calin, shared the photo they took, asserting that it only took a brief moment and that they intended to quickly resume enjoying the concert. Calin expressed feeling \u201cappalled\u201d by the incident, comparing it to being scolded by a teacher and made to feel immature and vain when they were simply trying to capture a memory of the event.<\/p>\n<p>In summary, the incident has sparked debates about concert etiquette and the expectations of both performers and fans. While some appreciate Miranda Lambert\u2019s candidness, others believe that she missed an opportunity to engage positively with her fans. It underscores the complexities of celebrity-fan interactions and the need for empathy and understanding from both parties.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The \u201cbad girl\u201d image that has endeared Miranda Lambert to many fans seems to have&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1606,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1605","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"aioseo_notices":[],"views":49,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1605","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1605"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1605\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1606"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1605"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1605"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1605"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
