Camila Cabello complains about 'rude' fans during Champions League performance

Camila Cabello took to Twitter after the Champions League final to slam "rude" football fans who sang over her performance.

The singer was invited to perform before kick off in Paris as Liverpool prepared to take on Real Madrid. But her songs, and the start of the match, were delayed for around 30 minutes due to issues outside the stadium.

Chaotic scene unfolded outside the Stade de France as fans struggled to get inside. A number of supporters with tickets were reportedly pepper sprayed by police officers while others were turned away.

At the time of Camila's performance starting, hundreds of seats inside the stadium were still empty. Two hours after the final whistle, Camila tweeted to complain that supporters were singing so loudly over her performance.

In the now-deleted tweet, the 25-year-old said: "Playing back our performance and I can't believe people were singing their teams anthems so loud during our performance. Like my team and I worked tirelessly for so long to bring the right vibes and give a good show."

Camila then tweeted again just minutes later and said: "Very rude but whatever. I'M GLAD U GUYS LOVED IT." That message was also swiftly removed.

Liverpool fans were praised by Merseyside Police for their "exemplary behaviour" during the issues outside the game.

In a statement, officers said: "MERPOL was deployed to this evening's match. Can only describe it as the worst European match I've ever worked or experienced."

They added: "I thought the behaviour of the fans at the turnstiles was exemplary in shocking circumstances. You were not late 100%"

Liverpool FC have requested a formal investigation from UEFA after supporters faced serious organisational issues outside the Stade de France.
