Country music singer Miranda Lambert stopped a recent show to scold fans for only focusing on themselves, and soon after, she was scolded on Social media for the same crime.

Lambert was in the midst of singing her song ā€œTin Manā€ when she stopped to admonish those in the crowd who were not living up to her standards.

ā€œI’m gonna stop right here for a sec … I’m sorry,ā€ she said as she stopped singing.

ā€œThese girls are worried about their selfie and not listening to the song. It’s pissing me off a little bit,ā€ she said.

ā€œSorry, I don’t like it — at all. We’re here to hear some Country music tonight. I’m singing some country damn Music,ā€ she said.

ā€œSit down,ā€ she told some fans, saying ā€œShall we start again?ā€

šŸ“ŗ Embedded media — coming soon

With the sermonette over, she returned to the song.

However, the video showed at least one fan moving quickly, apparently for the exit.

The jury of Social media opinion was decidedly against the singer, with one comment on TikTok noting, ā€œShe’s like the teacher that goes ā€˜I’ll wait.ā€™ā€

On Twitter, one poster told Lambert to ā€œget over yourselfā€ while another said her scolding was ā€œcompletely uncalled for.ā€

Adela Calin, a social media influencer, told NBC she was among the fans scolded when she and five other women took a group selfie.

ā€œIt was 30 seconds at most,ā€ Calin said. ā€œWe took the picture quickly and were going to sit back down.ā€
