Tossed Out Tori Amos Fan: Diva, Please!

46. Oh for HEAVEN'S sake. Hey. Little girl . . . you have NO, I repeat, NO FIrst Amendment rights at a concert. The First Amendment ONLY applies to government action. Try going to a Church and singing hymns to Satan. And if you are ANYTHING like those idiot teenies that think that talking in a movie is somehow their right . . . I'm glad she pitched your skank-ass. You can always spot ignorance when they start talking about their "Consititutional rights" in situations WHERE THEY HAVE NONE. I'm not even a Tori Amos fan but these spoiled brats are just that . . . spoiled brats. Instead of going to concerts why don't you go back to school and learn something.

53. by what? -

No, they did not pay for the front row seats. Tori reserves her entire front row of seats and (her bodyguards) gives them away at
the start of her concerts. upgrading those who have seats in the far back. She had every right to say what she did. The girls did not appreciate her kindness.

54. i don't care if these two girls were talking. she's playing a concert! was there ever a rule posted stating "No Talking While Concert In Session"? If not, then she has no right to cuss these girls out and throw them out. That IS diva behavior. Apparently someone needs to remember who buys her albums and gives her all she has now-her fans. And I think a lot of her fans are going to be turned off after watching this video. "Its a privilege to sit in the front row"- kiss my a$$ tori!

55. Ok, first and foremost, most of you people seem to have no clue what type of music Tori Amos does. She does *not* put on a rock concert with huge amps, loud guitars, fireworks, etc. She is a SINGER SONGWRITER, which denotes girl and a piano. People are encouraged to cheer and shout and clap when a song first starts and when it's over. DURING a song, you sit quietly and listen so you can hear the music. Not only is she a great preformer, but she did nothing wrong. I've been to quite a few of her shows over the years, and I think she was totally right for what she did. When people talk during the show, there is usually a resonating "Shut Up" from the rows nearby.

I'm sure these girls were just chatting incessently about nothing like many people do. That's the reason that they hide it on MySpace and their blogs. They want publicity for being an ass. No one can accept blame, and that's one of the biggest problems with the technologic age. People can try to push the blame off of themselves and onto others just because they were being an ass, and are embarrassed by it. They just need to fess up and appologize to Tori, IMHO.

Think about it, don't you get pissed off when people start talking at the movie theater? If they were whispering to each other or talking quietly, TORI WOULD NOT HAVE HEARD. They had to be shouting. Do you shout in the front row of a play? Do you shout in the front row at an orchestra? Do you shout in the front row of your kids singing in the choir? NO. Have some decorum people.

90 year olds do not go to Tori shows. Get a clue people. REAL Tori fans go to LISTEN to her shows. I've been to rock concerts and have screamed before. That's acceptable there. It is NOT acceptable during a Tori show. And at the beginning they tell you to SHUT YOUR CELL PHONES OFF, and to PLEASE NOT TALK DURING THE PERFORMANCE. That's exactly what it is a performance, not a "concert" persay...

56. and why would monique lie on her Myspace page? its not like she gave an interview to a magazine. she wrote it in her own personal blog. who sees that ever except for friends? so i think she's probably telling the truth.

57. Where's the link to "Monique's" blog? I'm reading at other sources that the two "girls" were Porn Stars Jelena Jensen and Aria Giovanni. Google it..

58. Who see's their MySpace blogs? When I used to post blogs on myspace I would check the counter and a whole heck of a lot more people looked and read it than I ever imagined. More than I had in my friends list. Keywords show up on a search. And do you know how many people search for artists like Tori Amos? A ton, so their blogs show up on MySpace searches, then in other searches, and next thing you know a whole hell of a lot of ppl have read their post. I know a TON of ppl with MySpace and Facebook accts that lie on it all the time because they KNOW that people are going to see it. Get a clue.

59. I went to see a Tori concert about 15 yrs ago. I went to the bathroom and when I came back I was not allowed to re-enter the itty bitty venue until 3 songs later where there was a break. I was sitting somewhere in the middle.
Tori is no Mozart for God's sake. If she wants her concerts to carry such an air then she should earn that type of respect legitamately through a show of music that actaully carries the weight.
She is not deserving of the title Diva.
She should have married Axl Rose.
I've never even bothered to listen to her music after that. I'm sorry to hear she still continues to treat her fans as though they are beneath her.

60. I'm on the fence on this one. On the one hand, I agree w/ "kingac"#52 comments. However, I believe that Amos was just as rude & disrespectful. If she had any type of professionalism, she would have signaled security to throw those girls out. Stopping the show, cursing out those girls, and giving them the finger is just ignorant. As someone elese posted, Amos has been making music for 20 yrs. ( I'm not a fan & listens to her music but, I know this). Shouldn't she have learned some professionlism about this sort of thing by now? What is she - a rapper. lol Rappers do what she did: cursing audience members; throwing them out; and giving them the finger. lol I think both parties should apologize to each otrher
