During the 39-year-old singer’s residency “Velvet Rodeo” at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino on Saturday, Lambert had begun singing her hit song “Tin Man” when she noticed ladies in the front row taking selfies.
“I’m gonna stop right here for a second,” Lambert said in a clip of the interaction posted on TMZ.
The music came to a halt.
“These girls are worried about their selfies and not listening to the song,” said Lambert. “It’s pissing me off a little bit. We’re here to hear some country music tonight. And I’m singing some country damn music.”

The entire time Lambert blasted the selfie crew, the audience loudly cheered.
The country singer appeared to signal to the fans that she wanted the phones put away and told the ladies, “We’re good,” before asking the crowd, “Shall we start again?” The concert then resumed.
Fans were split on TikTok over the hit country singer’s behavior, the New York Post reported.
“Miranda didn’t even talk to our Vegas audience between songs hardly,” one TikTok user said. “Always in a mood. Fans can enjoy however they want. They paid.”
Another added, “But maybe they were taking the selfies or videos to remember the occasion. I think she was out of line.”
Others on the platform agreed with the “Hell on Heels” hitmaker.
“There’s all the time in the world to partake in those activities during her rowdier, more up-tempo numbers but during her sacred ballads just shut up and listen,” one fan said. “Not exactly asking for much when there’s very few on her setlist.”
Another blasted, “How can you even disrespect ‘Tin Man’ like this. This is one of those songs that have gotten me through the hardest times of my life. Literally. I couldn’t stop crying long enough to even hold my phone if I wanted to.”
