During his shows, Stapleton performs 25 songs including his hit songs “White Horse,” “Nobody To Blame,” “Parachute,” “Starting Over,” “Whiskey And You,” and of course, “Tennessee Whiskey.”

Some times, shows go according to plan, but other times things happen that are out of his control. That’s exactly what happened at a recent show in Australia.

Fan Shouts “F*** Beyoncé” From The Crowd

In between songs, a fan shouted, “F*** Beyoncé” and Stapleton had a priceless reaction. First, he laughed in to the microphone, and then, he said, “I don’t think so.”

Fans could be heard laughing and cheering at his response.

A fan recorded the interaction and posted it on TikTok. Watch it below.

What Do Country Fans Have Against Beyoncé?

In March 2024, Beyoncé released an album titled Cowboy Carter, which featured several collaborations with country singers like Willie Nelson and a cover of Dolly Parton’s “Jolene,” despite changing the lyrics.

The album hit number one on many Billboard charts, including Top Country Albums, Folk Albums, and the all-genre Billboard 200 chart.

Fans took umbrage with these accolades because they believed it was not categorically a country music album.

Despite receiving no nominations at the Country Music Association Awards, Cowboy Carter had 11 nominations at the Grammy Awards, winning Best Country Album and Album of the Year. Her song “II Most Wanted” with Miley Cyrus won them a Grammy for Best Country Duo/Group.

Cowboy Carter beat out Post Malone’s F-1 Trillion, Kacey Musgraves’ Deeper Well, Chris Stapleton’s Higher, and Lainey Wilson’s Whirlwind.
