Scotty McCreery Brings His Concert To A Halt After Male Fan Hits A Woman In The Audience
Grand Ole Opry member and American Idol winner Scotty McCreery stopped one of his recent concerts after seeing a man hit a lady in the crowd.
TikTok user b1ake_a2en caught the whole moment on camera. McCreery was performing his first song of the night (“It Matters to Her”) during his concert at the Colorado State Fair when the incident occurred.
When McCreery saw what happened, he stopped singing and shouted, “Hey, hey hey!”
Pointing toward the man in the audience, he said, “Right here, right here, that’s a lady you just hit, sir! Absolutely not.” McCreery then called for police and security to kick the man out of the concert.

“Is she ok?” McCreery asked about the lady before telling the man to “get the heck out of here.” People in the crowd could be heard booing and yelling for the man to leave.
“On God’s green Earth, at a Scotty McCreery show? What are you doing?” McCreery remarked from the stage.

“Whoever you are, that’s the definition of a coward, hitting a lady. Get the heck out of here.”
Once everything seemed to be under control, McCreery said, “If we’re all set, let’s get on back to the show.”
