Tim McGraw Slaps Woman Who Grabbed His Leg During Concert

Well, it did happened at a country music concert in Georgia. But does that make it right?

A video posted by TMZ purports to show country music star Tim McGraw smacking a woman who was a little too aggressive in demonstrating her fandom during a concert in Atlanta on Sunday.

In the video, McGraw is seen singing and walking along a stage that goes into the audience. He touches several of the fans as they sing along.

Then McGraw then swings his left hand back, appearing to smack a fan who’s touching him across the head.

“Tim was singing out in the audience and someone firmly grabbed onto his leg and wouldn’t let go as he was moving through the crowd,” a McGraw representative told TMZ. “He instinctively swatted to try to keep them from ripping his jeans (which they succeeded at doing!), and so he could get to more fans who could slap hands with him before the end of the show.”
