Miranda Lambert briefly stopped her concert last week after a group of women took selfies during her performance.
When the incident happened, the country star was performing at her Las Vegas residency.
A few notes into her song "Tin Man," she stopped the show to call the women out, saying, "These girls are worried about their selfies and not listening to the song, and it's pissing me off a little bit."

“These girls are worried about their selfie and not listening to the song, it’s pissing me off a little bit. Sorry, I don’t like it at all. We’re here to hear some country music tonight. I’m singing some country… pic.twitter.com/sERBzalpBI
"I don't like it at all. We're here to hear some country music tonight," she added before starting the song again.
One woman in the group posted a photo taken just moments before Lambert shut them down.
Since the video first emerged, fans have been divided on Lambert's reaction. Some say she justified calling the group out since the constant cameras would be distracting. Meanwhile, others think the country star overreacted.
One Twitter user mentioned that Lambert is "The Grinch" of country music and posted a video of her popping a fans beachball when it landed on the stage during a previous show.
Watch that video below.
