Over the past few weeks, fans filled with a little too much zeal have been throwing bizarre things on the stage while artists are performing. Pop artist Pink at a summer festival in London received a wheel brie wheel and also a fan’s mother’s ashes in an urn while performing on the stage.

And sometimes the audience has been totally disrespectful towards singers as a fan threw his phone at Bebe Rexha while she was performing in New York. Following this recently, country hitmaker Miranda Lambert called out a bunch of ladies taking selfies while the artist was performing in Las Vegas. And many people think the artist did it to avoid any such incident at her concert.

After this episode, the ladies present at the concert spoke up. In an interview with NBC, one of the girls from the group Calin a social media influencer stated, “It felt like I was back at school with the teacher scolding me.” The 43-year-old influencer further revealed that she understands the safety concerns these days at concerts but expected less harsh words from the artists.
