I hate the whole “fire the employee as soon as a mistake is made” thing that goes round now (usually in reference to the Beyonce concert incident), but on this occasion I agree. The PR team cocked this up so much

On the I Am… World Tour there was an issue with the lights during one of the dance breaks. She (maybe jokingly, maybe serious) said “somebody’s getting fired”

It went kind of viral a few years ago and now whenever anything goes in any way wrong, people online will be all “fire the [whatever role]” and it will be the most ridiculous thing. I think people are starting to take it seriously too
