Tony Award-nominee and Hamiltoncast member Jonathan Groff went even further, saying he had no remorse for Madonna, "because that bitch was on her phone. You couldn’t miss it from the stage. It was a black void of the audience in front of us and her face there perfectly lit by the light of her iPhone through three-quarters of the show."

Celebrities, your fellow audience members might not be able to see you on your phone during a performance, but the cast sure can.
