The country singer spoke out in her Instagram Stories to claim that a fan "grabbed my a**" during a recent meet-and-greet.

No matter how fun an event might be, it seems there are always people who try to ruin it for everyone around them. But country singer Maren Morris isn't going to let a few inappropriate fans get in her way.

While touring in Grand Rapids, Michigan, on August 22, she participated in a meet-and-greet in preparation for her latest release, Dreamsicle, which she would perform that night.


Though the singer was already open to a lot of contact with her fans, including hugs and personal conversations, one fan decided to take things to the next level by groping her.

Morris did not stay silent about this invasion, but she also did not let this moment stop her from having a good time.

On her Instagram Stories, Morris wrote:

"Hi y'all. Tonight's show was so fun, but someone grabbed my a** during meet-and-greet before the show."
"I'm going to continue them because one person shouldn't ruin it for everyone, but please know I'm there to connect, share, hug, all the things, but please don't override someone's personal space. Love you."

Morris's announcement became popular on Facebook.

While there were, of course, some who questioned how serious of an issue this was, most were disgusted and empathized with Morris.

Though the incident might have left a bad taste in her mouth, Morris went on to have an incredible concert in Grand Rapids and enjoyed sharing Dreamsicle with her fans.

Morris said of the experience:

"Thank you for a beautiful garden venue, a perfect sunset, and for selling the d**n show out. We can't wait to come back."

The visit appeared to be part of a promotional stunt for the newly launched “Fortnite x Simpsons” season of the popular online game, whose recent update introduced a Springfield-themed island.

Fans Defend Millie Bobby Brown After People Rush To Judgment Because Her Baby Cried During Video Shoot

It's easy to rush to judgment when we witness someone behaving a certain way or making a decision that's different from what we would do.

It's arguably even easier to rush to judgment about celebrities, whether or not this was something done consciously in front of fans or viewers on television or social media, or in a candid moment when they didn't know they were being watched or recorded.
