Lambert said to the accompanist, ‘I’m gonna stop right here for a second, I’m sorry. These girls are worried about their selfie and not listening to the song.’
The clip showed some fans walking out as one person said, ‘Let’s go — you don’t do that to fans.’
Adela Calin, one of the women scolded for the selfie, later told NBC News: ‘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.’
‘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,’ Calin added, noting the pictures took ’30 seconds at most.’
‘We just couldn’t get one good picture. We were so excited because I think we had the best seats in the house in the whole theater,’ she noted, sharing that she was ‘appalled’ by Lambert’s terse reaction.

Two days later, Lambert was slammed by fans in the comments section of a post she made to promote animal safety and responsibly owning a pet.
The animal advocate ignored the backlash and fans were divided in the comments section of the post.
Some followers voiced their support for the songstress and also commended her animal advocacy, but others called her names and demanded her to apologize to the women she called out.
Lindsey wrote: ‘Team @mirandalambert she owes no one an apology. Saw it all first hand and those girls had taken 1000 selfies before she finally had had enough.’
