Miranda Lambert’s Actions At A Recent Music Festival Faces Backlash
Miranda Lambert’s actions at a recent music festival have drawn criticism. Many fans claim to have lost interest in her as a result of their disappointment. People have been offended by her on-stage behavior before.
Miranda Lambert, a country music artist, is receiving criticism for her actions during the Montana Festival. On July 14, an attendant posted a video of Lambert berating the audience during her performance, which led many to depart.
“Miranda reprimands crowd at Under the Big Sky in Montana” is written alongside the video, which depicts the artist speaking to the audience. Unafraid to express her opinions to the crowd, Lambert wore a denim outfit with tassels and a cowboy hat.
Lambert emphasized that she was not the focus of attention. She pointed to herself as she spoke the final sentence, “I can see your head is not turned the right way, which is this way,” in her southern accent.
Cheers could be heard from some fans who reacted to the star’s obvious annoyance. Lambert goes on to say, “So, if you came to visit, you can do it somewhere else.”
Addressing concertgoers who were eager to be there, Lambert stated, “If you came to sing and hear some country music and drink some beer […] then we’re doing that tonight.”
Lambert raised her hands and questioned, “Are we clear?” as she continued to chastise the throng. She then indicated that there must have been a small altercation among members of the audience by pointing to particular persons and asking whether they were finished being dramatic.
“Fighting is not ok… And it’s always the girls. We get crazy!” Lambert exclaimed with a chuckle. Shifting the mood completely, she then raises a cup to toast with the audience.
“Cheers, everybody. I’m going to wait it out,” she said while raising the cup in the air with her right hand before taking a sip from the straw that was inside. Upon realizing that her cup was empty, Lambert turned to her stage crew members and shook the cup, gesturing that she wanted a refill.
“Mine’s empty,” she mentioned before someone swiftly came to take the cup from her and replace it with a new one. “This looks like a good time for a drink, y’all!” shouted the “Somethin’ Bad” artist with her arms stretched out.
Underneath the post, the TikToker who shared the video online captioned, “Thoughts? 🤷🏻♀️ #mirandalambert #underthebigsky #whitefishmontana #countrymusic.” Many online observers took to the comment section to discuss what happened.
“We left. As did LOTS of the crowd,” revealed someone who had been in the audience when Lambert said her piece. Another social media user criticized, “This is terrible,” while someone else stated, “I stopped liking Miranda for this exact reason.”
“This has always been her. I remember it from her county fair days. [Never] paid to see her again,” another user chimed in.
A TikToker remarked, “Miranda, you’re okay at best. Not amazing. Please respect your fans more. They made you what you are. Without them, you’d be nobody working at Dairy Queen. Respectfully, just shut up and sing.”
However, while the majority did not agree with what Lambert did and thought her actions were distasteful, some felt differently. “Honestly, she was amazing. We were right up front and loved every second of it,” praised another concertgoer.
Similarly, an admirer gushed, “🔥🔥🔥🔥 I LOVE her. Always have. Has been a huge influence for me. She is just brutally honest. Something so many of us lack. Honesty!”
Lambert has always expressed her feelings openly, particularly regarding her performances. The “Wranglers” singer has already chastised her fans for the commotion she created at the Montana Festival.
At a previous Las Vegas gig, Lambert paused her performance of her smash song “Tin Man” to speak to the crowd. A group of women were taking selfies throughout her performance, which infuriated her.
A few bars into the track, she stopped singing and asked her band to stop playing. Pointing to the ladies, Miranda Lambert expressed, “These girls are worried about their selfie and not listening to the song, and it’s pissed me off a little bit.”
As the audience cheered loudly, Lambert expressed her frustration once more and underlined how much she disliked what they were doing. Lambert reiterated her recent remarks, emphasizing that attendees should keep their attention on the main objective of the event: to enjoy some country music.
Using her hands, she then motioned for the women to put their phones down and pay attention to her. “Shall we start again?” she asked before the pianist started the song over. As she began singing again, some people got up and left.
One concertgoer could even be heard saying, “Let’s go, c’mon. You don’t do that to fans.” Another said, “Ok. Bye!” A social media user who shared footage of the concert drama last year (2023) layered the words “She Mad” over the video. “Miranda said [it’s] My Show,” they penned in their caption.
Agreeing with the aforementioned sentiments, more social media users commented on the situation. “Yikes, this was completely out of line and awkward. She’s not a teacher here 😅,” noted a TikToker.
Another echoed, “Omg… and then imagine how they felt after this???” “The people leaving right after she did it lmaoooo that was great!” commended someone else. Lastly, a Swiftie added, “Taylor [Swift] would never 😏.”
