Have you heard about Lin-Manuel Miranda’s smash-success Broadway musical Hamilton? Miranda wrote, directed and stars in the epic life story – told through hip-hop-based musical numbers – of Alexander Hamilton, the original gangster/Founding Father. The show has gotten rave reviews and Miranda is being called a genius. Go here to see Chris Hayes’ wonderful interview with Miranda. Anyway, the show successfully transitioned from off-Broadway to Broadway this year and Miranda is getting even more heat. So of course Death Eater Madonna had to stop by the show. Except that Madge is such a pill, she texted all the way though Act 2. Miranda called her out on it too.

Madonna reportedly has a hard time separating herself from her phone. The singer, 56, got into hot water when she allegedly started texting during a performance of Hamilton at New York City’s Public Theater on Saturday, The New York Daily News first reported.

Tony winner Lin-Manuel Miranda, the star, author and composer for the show, made a pointed reference to an unnamed celebrity audience member who practiced poor theater-going etiquette.

“Tonight was the first time I asked stage management NOT to allow a celebrity (who was texting all through Act 2) backstage #noselfieforyou,” Miranda Tweeted on Saturday night. It was later deleted, but a source in the audience tells PEOPLE that Madonna was at the performance and texting throughout the night.

“It was definitely her,” a source says. “She was texting, I believe, although at one point she also pulled out a Blackberry. She was also 20 minutes late and caused quite a stir getting to her seat.”

The source adds that Madonna’s behavior was “extra distracting” because the show is in such an intimate theater. Eventually, the pop star did stop texting, the source says – after someone else in the audience “finally hissed ‘Shut it off!'” during the finale. “To her credit, she did,” the source adds.

People Mag also had a reminder of another incident, back in 2013, when Madonna attended a screening of 12 Years a Slave and she texted throughout the film. When someone in the audience told her to put it away that time, Madonna yelled, “It’s for business … ENSLAVER!”

Yeah… it’s not cute. I don’t understand how people can talk on the phone or text through a movie or a Broadway show. Beyond the fact that it’s rude as hell, how do you even concentrate on one or the other? How can focus on the conversation you’re rudely having or the show/film? But this is just further evidence that no one matters but Madonna.
