She continued, “It’s pissing 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 country damn music.”
Many fans were not happy with the interaction with the crowd, and one fan wrote; I would have gone home after that.” While several fans did defend her, with one saying, “I kinda like this,” another fan commented, “What a Diva.” Watch the TikTok video here.

Miranda recently announced a new duet with Leon Bridges called “If You Were Mine.” The song sees Lambert and Bridges celebrating the objects of their affection from a distance, contemplating how they would cherish and treasure their beloved if fate ever granted them the opportunity.
Miranda said in a statement, “I have been a big fan of Leon for a while because he is very authentic as an artist, and I love his music. I wrote this song with Ashley Monroe and Jesse Frasure, specifically with Leon in mind.”
She added, “Since we are both from Texas, we threw in a few Texas references, of course – the Frio River being one. When we finished this song, we sent it to Leon in hopes that he would want to collaborate, and we were so glad that he said yes. I have really enjoyed getting to know him, and I’m happy to have him as a new friend.”
Bridges said, “I was humbled to have Miranda ask if I’d join her on this beautiful duet she wrote. Getting in the studio with her in Nashville to sing this song together was magic. There’s nothing better than two Texans on one mic!”
The release is the first glimpse at new music from Lambert, who has recently teased “some fun collaborations up my sleeve.”
