A fan of singer-songwriter Jack Antonoff has sparked outrage over an inappropriate selfie.TikTok influencer Adam Barrera cornered the producer in the bathroom at the Variety Hitmakers event in Hollywood last weekend and snapped a selfie with him.The photo was taken in the mirror as Antonoff was washing his hands, presumably after using the toilet.Posting the image to X, formerly Twitter, Barrera gushed, ‘So I met Jack Antonoff in the bathroom.’ The Bleachers frontman, who has penned hits for Taylor Swift and Lana Del Rey, looked incredibly unimpressed in the image.The selfie was poorly received on social media, with most people blasting Barrera for bothering the star in such a private place.’You didn’t meet him, you creepily asked him for a selfie he’s very obviously not into taking. It must be so weird being that famous like you can’t even use the bathroom in peace,’ wrote political commentator Rob Smith. ‘This is so cringe, let the man use the bathroom in peace,’ wrote another.

Let those people at least use a bathroom in peace.’Another wrote, ‘Asking for a pic in the bathroom is such thirsty, low-grade, desperate behavior.”Taking a picture of someone while they’re literally drying their hands in the bathroom is low life activities,’ added a fifth. ‘So disrespectful and unnecessary.
