Boebert, caught on video, apologizes for inappropriate behavior at ‘Beetlejuice’ show


Boebert’s behavior drew ire from other audience members, including her use of a vape during the show. Initially, Boebert denied vaping and claimed that she was removed from the performance simply for being too enthusiastic.

“It’s true, I did thoroughly enjoy the AMAZING Beetlejuice at the Buell Theatre and I plead guilty to laughing and singing too loud!” Boebert wrote on social media.

However, the footage, widely circulated on social media, shows Boebert vaping, blowing smoke into the air, dancing in her seat, taking photos of the performance and giving ushers the middle finger while being escorted out of the theater.

Boebert made statements like, “Do you know who I am?” and “I will be contacting the mayor,” according to an incident report.

Another video appears to show Boebert and her male companion fondling each other sexually during the show.

Boebert did not directly address the second video in her Friday apology. She did mention her vaping but claimed that she had previously denied it only because she “did not recall” having done so.

“Whether it was the excitement of seeing a much-anticipated production or the natural anxiety of being in a new environment, I genuinely did not recall vaping that evening when I discussed the night’s events with my campaign team while confirming my enthusiasm for the musical.”

Boebert was almost defeated for reelection last year and is trying to project a heads-down demeanor in the district — as opposed to her rabble-rousing persona in Washington — as she faces a rematch with the same Democrat.
