Fans aren’t the only ones weighing in on Miranda Lambert‘s recent concert drama. After the 39-year-old country singer stopped her Las Vegas show to call out a group of fans who were taking a selfie, Lambert has been under fire for her comments.
Rapper and actor LL Cool J, whose real name is James Todd Smith, recently commented on Lambert’s actions during an interview on the radio show “Mercedes in the Morning”.
When the radio hosts asked LL Cool J if he would call out a fan for taking a selfie at his show, he began laughing and saying, “No.”
“Miranda, get over it, baby,” he quipped. “They’re fans. It’s fans.”
The “Mama Said Knock You Out” emcee went on to say that while an artist’s job is “to create art,” “The way people choose to interact with that art or engage it or appreciate it is up to them. If you want to come to my show and you want to sit there and eat a bowl of potato salad with a baseball hat down to your nose, that’s what you choose to do. You gotta let the fans do what they want to do. What about the thousands of people who aren’t doing that? What, you got rules? No yellow shirts!”
LL Cool J added of Lambert, “I can’t speak for her. I’m not gonna judge her. I have nothing unkind to say about her. I wish her the best. She has the right to her feelings, but to me, I let the fans be the fans and do what they want to do.”
The GRAMMY winner, who is currently gearing up to appear in The F.O.R.C.E. Tour, addressed his fans, joking, “You guys come to the show, enjoy yourself… if you want to take selfies. If you want to bring the old Polaroids from the early 1800s, that’s up to you.”
LL Cool J isn’t the only celebrity to weigh in on the moment. During a Thursday appearance on “Watch What Happens Live With Andy
