Now, one of those women, named Adela Calin, is speaking out to defend her decision to take photos while Miranda was singing.

"She said these girls are more interested in taking selfies and then she said sit down," she told Good Morning America. "I thought, I feel like I’m being back in school and me and my friends did something that annoyed the teacher and she scolded us so she told us to sit down."

She continued, "Everybody was having such a great time. We would stand up at times and dance. It was great energy. But after that happened it was just, um, it was not the same."

Adela, who later shared the two photos that were taken, told NBC that the photo-taking session lasted "30 seconds at most."

"We took the picture quickly and were going to sit back down," Adela explained.

She added, "I feel like she was determined to make us look like we were young, immature and vain. But we were just grown women in our 30s to 60s trying to take a picture."

Adela noted that they did try to take photos before the show started but the lighting wasn't great so they asked another audience member to take a photo towards the end of the show.

"We were so excited because I think we had the best seats in the house in the whole theater," Adela shared.
