Miranda Lambert stopped performing ‘Tin Man’ when a group of concertgoers were trying to take selfies. Lambert was mad and told the group she didn’t like it and they were pissing her off a little bit.
“I’m gonna stop right here for a second,” she said in the clip shared by RedNeckInVegas. “These girls are worried about a selfie and not listening to the song. It’s pissing me off a little bit.
Miranda continued, I don’t like it at all. You’re here to hear some country music tonight, I’m singing some country d— music.”
The other concertgoers started cheering and clapping for Lambert as she motioned for the people to sit down and ask, “Shall we start again?” The music for “Tin Man” started up again and Lambert went on with her performance.
A few in the group of girls were upset at the interaction with Lambert and can be heard saying on the video “Let’s go — you don’t do that to fans,” as they left their seats.
We’ve reached out to Lambert for comment. As of yet, we haven’t heard back.
A video clip of the moment went viral on TikTok.

Several TikTok users slammed the country star for what they declared rude behavior.
“Miranda didn’t even talk to our Vegas audience between songs hardly,” scolded one TikTok user. “Always in a mood. Fans can enjoy however they want. They paid.”
“Man no wonder Blake left her,” joked a second person, referencing Lambert’s ex-husband, Blake Shelton, who she divorced in 2015.
“But maybe they were taking the selfies or videos to remember the occasion,” slammed a third fan. “I think she was out of line.”
There were others that agreed with Lambert.
Social media influencer, Adela Calin said “It was 30 seconds at most, we took the picture quickly and were going to sit back down” when Lambert called them out.
“She could have finished her song and just said some blanket statement like, ‘Let’s try to be in the moment and stay off our phones’ if she felt like she needed to,” one person commented on the TikTok video.
“This was completely uncalled for, and disrespectful to her fan base. They paid their money and was enjoying the music,” one user tweeted.
Another girl from the group, Barnes said she and one of the four friends decided to stay behind and try to enjoy the rest of the concert.
However, she no longer considers herself a fan of Lambert.
“It would kind of be awkward to go to another concert of hers,” she said, adding that she paid a few thousand dollars for her seat in the VIP section of Planet Hollywood’s Bakkt Theater.
Calin took to Instagram on Monday to share the pics she took when she got called out.
“These are the 2 pictures we were talking when Miranda Lambert stopped her concert and told us to sit down and not take selfies 😱” Calin wrote.
