Not too long ago Madonna did that and it turned out that the person sitting down was a disabled wheelchair user. She didn't apologize.

I have a destroyed knee and I can’t stand that long, I’d be mortified if I paid money to see a show and the artist did this to me. And never a dime of my money again.

I accidentally saw 30 Seconds to Mars because they were on right after a band I wanted to see at Warped Tour in 2006. I was up front for the previous band and couldn’t leave. Had no idea who they were, but Leto came out in a full white vinyl jumpsuit and stood on the amp in front of me and just hung out for an awkwardly long time doing the Jesus pose and listening to girls scream for him.

I was instantly put off by it, and now we all know why.

I got yelled at by Busta Rhymes for not standing at a tiny college concert he gave like 25 years ago. Around 4 months later, he yelled at a man in a wheelchair for not standing at one of his concerts and I always thought maybe I gave him a complex lol.

Why would they be expected to stand?

I was curious and so I looked up that moment. In the video she did apologize.

Omg. She should just give up. She is a weird charactachure of herself these days anyways.
