Miranda Lambert may be getting negative reactions from social media fans after the shocking move she did with a concertgoer who took selfies during her concert, but she seems to be unbothered despite all the drama.

According to Page Six, the country singer performed at her Las Vegas residency concert again and stopped the show, but this time, instead of calling out a fan who are taking photos, she commended one audience member for her t-shirt.

The musician was singing one of her songs when she suddenly noticed someone in the crowd wearing a witty shirt that reads "Shoot tequila, not selfies."

The audience then responded with laughter.

Lambert told the fan that the shirt was "badass" and later proved that she loves shooting tequilas more than selfies by reaching a small bottle of alcohol from the attendee and deciding to take a little sip.

Although she never finished the drink, she handed it over to one of her bandmates who gulped it down effortlessly.

As of this writing, Miranda Lambert has yet to address the selfie issue online. She also never apologized to the woman who felt embarrassed after she was called out.

Miranda Lambert Selfie Issue: Fan Who Got Called Out Breaks Silence

Just a few days after a fan was called out for taking selfies during Lambert's show in Las Vegas, the concertgoer finally broke her silence and shared her true feelings after the incident.

A woman named Adea Calin, who is also an online content creator, was one of the group of ladies who were spotted taking photos while the singer performed on stage.

She told NBC News that the photo op was only 30 seconds and they quickly went back to their seats to enjoy the rest of the concert.

After being called out, Calin said she felt disappointed as it was like being at school where the teacher scolded her for doing something wrong and ordered her to sit down.

The news comes after Miranda Lambert paused her concert to call out Calin and her friends who were in the front row taking selfies.

"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," she said.

Lambert later noted that everyone in the venue attended the music event to hear some of her country songs. Her remarks later went viral on social media and many online users deem it inappropriate for her to call out the women like that.
