Miranda Lambert Scolds Fans at Montana Festival for Disrupting Her Performance: 'Fighting Is Not OK'

Miranda Lambert is fed up with rowdy fans disrupting her live performances.

According to fan footage posted on TikTok, the country star, 40, scolded a crowd during her headlining set at Montana’s Under the Big Sky Festival on Saturday, July 13, first for not paying attention. “... I can see your head is not turned the right way, which is this way,” she said, pointing at herself. 

“So, if you came to visit, you can do it somewhere else,” Lambert continued. “If you came to sing and hear some country music, and drink some beer and raise some hell, then we’re doing that tonight. Are we clear?”

The “Wranglers” singer then pointed to a specific area in the venue to ask audience members, “Are we done with our drama yet?”

“... Fighting is not OK,” she added. “And it’s always the girls. We get crazy! Cheers, everybody. I’m gonna wait it out.”

This wouldn’t be the first time Lambert had to pause a show to address crowd rumblers. A similar incident took place during a June 29 concert in Midland, Tx., where she commented on an audience scuffle during her performance of "Tin Man.”

“Is everybody OK? Did somebody faint? Are you good? Are y’all fightin’? During this song? Because I will come down there and you don’t want that. We’re not doing that today,” the singer said from the stage, per a video shared on X (formerly Twitter). “I’m gonna go East Texas red on your ass real quick. It ain’t worth it. It’s always the girls, we always get riled up and start punching each other. Dear police, can we just go ahead and remove them, that’d be great. Thank you very much.”

A few days after the concert, Lambert took to Instagram to lay down some ground rules about fans fighting at her shows, which she deems acceptable — but only during certain songs.

"If you want to fight at my shows, I'm all about it. Give 'em hell,” she said in a July 2 video. “I've got five songs for you. 'Fastest Girl in Town,' 'Kerosene,' 'Little Red Wagon,' 'Wranglers,' 'Gun Powder & Lead.’ Don't do it during 'Tin Man.' That's not the time. I know you can hear the s--- talking 'cause it's a ballad, but that's not the time. So pick your times.”

With a wink, Lambert concluded: "Look at the setlist and choose wisely."
