According to a TikTok video posted by an attendee (below), the 21-year-old queer pop star and dancer paused a Saturday night Pride performance at RuPaul's Drag Race legend Trixie Mattel's concert to yell at a member of the audience who booed her in the middle of the show. "Who the living f--- just booed me?" the Dance Moms personality — clad in an outfit complete with teddy bear heads posted around her body — shouted on stage, before she and her dancers paced around the set in search of the culprit.

Siwa eventually gave up on the hunt, and continued with the show before giving the culprit a stern message: "Respectfully, f--- you!" Entertainment Weekly has reached out to representatives for Siwa for comment. The former child star recently rebranded her colorful persona to adopt a more adult-oriented look and sound to accompany the April release of her pop single "Karma." Though the tune marked a lyrical departure from her prior kid-friendly material, the song and its accompanying music video were met with universally negative reviews from critics and audiences. Despite its negative reception, "Karma" has amassed over 44 million plays on YouTube, and reached No. 22 on the Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart — an extension of the Billboard Hot 100. Siwa previously said that, with her new era, she wanted to "invent" a subgenre of pop music for the LGBTQ+ community.
