{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Kacey Musgraves shut down her audience as they tried to get her to down a beer from a fan’s shoe on Sunday.
The country music star was performing at the Enmore Theater in Sydney, Australia, when someone in the audience called out that Musgraves should do a “shoey” -- an Australian tradition where someone downs a beer from a shoe, according to Australian outlet news.com.au.

The audience member continued to shout at her and she asked: “Do you think I’m going to do that out of your shoe?”
Even as the audience cheered 'yes,' the Grammy winner shut them down by saying: “I’m not f---ing drinking out of your shoe.”

The audience can then be heard chanting: “Shoey, shoey.”
Musgraves stuck to her guns, though, and responded to the audience member: “You could have athlete’s foot or something. I don’t need that right now.”
After a bit more back and forth, the video shows Musgrave returning to her concert.

However, many fans weren’t happy that the audience tried to “bully” her into the unique Australian tradition.
“I can't believe we, as an audience, almost bullied @KaceyMusgraves into doing a shoey on stage tonight. Oh what a world, indeed,” one person tweeted.
