Miranda Lambert slammed by fans on social media… after failing to apologize to the concertgoers she called out for taking a selfie during emotional song at her Vegas concert

 Miranda Lambert was slammed by fans in the comments section of a post she made to promote animal safety and responsibly owning a pet.

Her Instagram post comes just two days after she stopped mid-concert to call out friends taking a selfie while she sang the emotional song Tin Man during her Las Vegas residency.

The animal advocate, 39, ignored the backlash and instead focused on a cause close to her heart.

The star, who appeared to subtly shade her critics, wrote ‘It takes balls….’ before adding that she was speaking about animals.

‘To learn why it’s important and y’all can get shirts at the link in my bio,’ adding hearts and a dog emoji.

DailyMail.com reached out to her reps for comment.

Her tee said that same thing – ‘It takes balls. Spay & neuter your pets.’

Miranda posed with her hands pointing down at her shirt, as she grinned ear to ear.

The blonde country star paired the top with jeans and wavy tresses.

During the Sunday concert, Miranda stopped in the middle of singling the emotional tune Tin Man to tell a group of fans taking selfies with her in the background to stop.

It took place at her Las Vegas residency.

‘I’m gonna stop right here for a second, I’m sorry. These girls are worried about their selfie and not listening to the song.’

‘It’s p*****g me off a little bit. Sorry, I don’t like it. At all. We’re here to hear some country music tonight. I’m singing some d**n music.’

Fans appeared divided in the comments section of the post, while some sharing their support for her and also commending her animal advocacy, others called her names and demanded her to apologize to the women she berated.

One commenter appeared to have been at the same concert where all the controversy started, siding with Miranda.

‘Team @mirandalambert she owes no one an apology. Saw it all first hand and those girls had taken 1000 selfies before she finally had had enough.’

Adding: ‘They were so disrespectful, the media missed the entire story on this one! She’s a queen and will remain a queen!’

Others demanded an apology from her to the women in question, calling her a ‘true narcissist’ and a ‘petty’ person with a ‘God Complex.’

Another wrote: ‘This girl is taking a selfie when she should be apologizing and it’s really p*****g me off,’ in a play off the country’s star’s harsh words at her concert.

Others made an announcement they were unfollowing her on Instagram; she has over 4.8 million followers on Instagram.

‘Unfollowing for the way you disrespect and humiliate your fans. It takes balls not to apologize or see a problem with your actions,’ they wrote.

A fan said that ‘Taylor Swift would never,’ in regards to chastising a fan taking a photo during a concert.

Some fans just called her ‘rude’ and ‘classless’ while others said that while they love her, she needed to ‘address this situation.’

‘Takes balls to realize fans are your paycheck. I’ll keep my money. Vegas should cancel you,’ someone wrote.

Another person applauded what she does for animals but said that she ‘really’ does ‘owe those women in VIP an apology,’ adding that we all have our minutes.’

One of the women – Adela Calin – chastised by Miranda spoke to TMZ about the moment, claiming that they were in the VIP bench and lower than the audience – when asked if they were blocking others.

She claimed it only was 20 seconds for the duration of the picture and that the flash was from the phone.

When asked if she was still a fan, she said: ‘I wont’ buy another ticket to go to her concert.

She added that she felt like she was back at school when a teacher would chastise her.
