The actions of Miranda Lambert at the Montana Festival have caused her to face criticism. A video taken by an audience member on July 14 shows Lambert berating the audience during her performance, prompting several to exit. She spoke to the crowd with an air of strictness, calling out particular people while donning a denim outfit and a cowboy hat.
But there were those who stood up for her. “To be honest, she was incredible. “We were right up front and loved every second of it,” one concertgoer enjoyed. “She is just incredibly honest,” another admirer remarked. “Something that a lot of us are missing.”
Fans have been displeased by Lambert’s behavior before. “These girls are worried about their selfie and not listening to the song, and it’s pissed me off a little bit,” she said, pausing the performance of “Tin Man” to reprimand women snapping pictures at a previous event in Las Vegas.
Some online commenters have called her actions “out of line,” while others have praised her directness.
