‘We Left. As Did LOTS of the Crowd’: Fans Shame Miranda Lambert for Her Behavior at Montana Festival

Miranda Lambert, the renowned country singer, finds herself at the center of controversy following an unexpected encounter with fans at the Montana Festival. A video clip from July 14 captured the moment when Lambert, in her signature cowboy hat and denim dress, sternly addressed the crowd during her performance. Her words, “Are we clear?” were pointedly directed towards certain audience members, leading to a ripple of discomfort.

Many concertgoers decided to exit the venue, as one attendee noted, “We left. As did LOTS of the crowd.” Criticism quickly flooded in, with an observer expressing dismay: “This is terrible.” On social media, a TikToker commented sharply, urging, “Respect your fans more. Without them, you’d be some nobody working at Dairy Queen.”

Despite the backlash, Lambert isn’t without her supporters. “Honestly, she was amazing. We were right up front and loved every second of it,” shared one concertgoer, highlighting a different perspective. Another fan admired her candor, stating, “She is just brutally honest. Something so many of us lack.”

Long-time followers of Lambert might recall a similar incident a little while back. During a Las Vegas show, she paused mid-performance of “Tin Man” to call out women who were distracted by taking selfies. She famously remarked, “These girls are worried about their selfie and not listening to the song, and it’s pissed me off a little bit.”

The internet remains divided over her actions. On one hand, some people consider her behavior “out of line,” while on the other, there are those who appreciate her no-nonsense style. It seems that Lambert’s straightforward approach has sparked quite the debate, making her a polarizing figure amongst concert attendees and social media users alike.
