In another tweet, Lea said their producer saw the video and said that she's still nice despite the incident. 

"When one of our lead producers and our dance captain saw the video and learned about what happened, they said, 'You were still very nice, if that were me I would’ve cussed at them and kicked them out',” she said. 

Lea addressed the viral video showing her decline to take a photo with her fans waiting outside of her dressing room.

"Just a reminder… I have boundaries. Do not cross them. Thank you," Lea wrote on her Twitter account. 

Lea's viral video was posted by Facebook user Cristopher Retokelly Carpila. 

In the video, Lea can be seen declining taking pictures with Carpilla's group because she's in her dressing room and they are not in the guest list.
