Selena Gomez is facing criticism after fans accused her of being “disrespectful” during a Beyoncé concert over the weekend.
The singer, 32, attended Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter concert at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. While she posted several photos from the night, one Instagram Story sparked outrage.
In the now-viral image, Selena can be seen in a private box watching the concert — but she also had the Knicks vs. Pacers basketball game playing on her phone. She captioned the story: “Still got my eye on the game.”
The post quickly divided the internet.
One user on X wrote, “Selena Gomez really said Beyoncé’s concert is too boring — she started watching basketball.” Another called the act “so disrespectful,” while others pointed out that even basketball players wouldn’t do that at a Beyoncé show.
However, many fans came to Selena’s defense. Some argued the game was a big deal, especially for New York fans, and it was normal to keep up with both events.
One supporter wrote, “Plenty of people at the concert were doing the same thing. It’s not that deep.” Another added, “Let people enjoy both. It doesn’t mean she wasn’t into the concert.”
Selena hasn’t responded to the backlash, and her reps have not issued a statement.
Meanwhile, other stars like Meghan Markle and Prince Harry also attended Beyoncé’s shows recently, sharing joyful moments from the night online.
For now, Selena’s quick glance at the Knicks game has sparked a heated debate over concert etiquette — and how much attention stars owe to the shows they attend.
