      Some singer. Someone in the audience was cheering for her. But it was a cheer she was not familiar with because it is not originally from western culture. Some are saying her response was culturally insensitive. Seems like kind of a big nothing burger, but I guess it’s a big deal for some people.

          It was a north african wedding cheer the crowd member decided to do during a quiet part of Sabrina’s set. She mistook it for yodeling and said she didn’t like it.

            After looking it up, assuming it’s a zaghrouta, I can understand that being a bit jarring during a quiet part of a set. It’s not exactly subtle and could easily sound like someone is mocking you in western context.
