Carly Pearce Breaks Up Fight Between Fans During Recent Concert
Carly Pearce wants everyone to enjoy her shows, which is why she has zero tolerance for anyone who disrupts the concert experience for others.
The country star is currently on her Hummingbird World Tour and recently performed at the O2 Arena in Birmingham, United Kingdom.
But midway through the show, the “What He Didn’t Do” singer had to stop when she noticed a few audience members fighting. It didn’t help that she had already mentioned she wasn’t feeling well, so clearly frustrated by the situation, she paused the show to call the fans out.
“We’re all here to just have a good night, you know what I mean? We’re all friends at my shows,” Pearce is heard saying in a video posted by an audience member. “Girl, I am sick, and I ain’t got time for it, okay?”
She continued, “I love you. I’m just saying. Please don’t make everybody around you angry, okay?”

Fans in attendance praised Pearce for how she handled the situation, saying she addressed it with class.
“She handled this so perfectly all while battling influenza…. I am so sorry bad people ruin it for amazing FANS,” one person wrote.

This isn’t the first time Carly Pearce has had to stop a show because of disruptive people. Back in August of last year, she called out someone at a Minnesota show for heckling her.
A man in the crowd allegedly began shouting rude comments at Pearce while she was on stage. At one point, when she stepped up to the mic and said “I want to tell you all a little bit about me,” he yelled back, “No one cares.”
Understandably, this made Pearce furious. She wasted no time calling security to remove the heckler from the show.

After taking a moment to calm down, Pearce addressed the crowd, telling them how the situation made her feel.
“I don’t care if it’s, to me, I don’t care if it’s to somebody sitting next to you. I don’t care if it’s on the internet. I don’t care if it’s texting, words hurt. That hurt me. That was not nice. And I’m just here to tell you guys, be kind. Do not say mean things to people just to be mean. Don’t think that there aren’t consequences for it. It’s not kind. It’s not right.”
She also said that this was the first time she had ever removed someone from one of her shows.
“And I do not believe that he should have been in my show if he’s going to speak to me like that. So I just want you guys to know that is the first time I have ever sent somebody out of one of my shows… But if somebody’s going to be that mean and disrespect me, you are not welcome.”
