Jack Harlow has had a meteoric rise in the music industry within the past year. But that won't shield him from drawing flak for his Instagram story as the Boston Celtics took on the Milwaukee Bucks on Sunday.
The What's Poppin artist was seen sitting courtside during Celtics-Bucks Game 1, which led to a rather hilarious interaction from referees Scott Foster and Ed Malloy as they tried to figure out who he was.

But not all the Jack Harlow-centered shenanigans during the Celtics-Bucks game was well-received. The Grammy-nominated artist was seen finagling the little knobs on a baseline camera during live game action.

Safe to say not everyone was pleased. The camerawoman was steadily broadcasting footage during a live Celtics possession. While her camera luckily was far from the action and likely not needed at that exact instance, who knows what the little alterations made on the camera setting could do. That led to a widespread callout on Twitter against Jack Harlow.

Some Celtics-Bucks spectators turned the tables on Harlow, asserting that he wouldn't appreciate someone else serving as a distraction while trying to do his job.
I’m sure @jackharlow would see the humor if someone messed around with his equipment in the middle of show too, right?

Jack Harlow is one of the most charismatic rising artists in the music industry today. But there's no way around excusing his actions in this instance. Thankfully, the incident didn't lead to any actual disruption or person getting fired. The Celitcs-Bucks camerawoman even responded to said tweet, indicating that it was all good.
Hi! This was me. No bad blood. His team apologized after.

Jack Harlow will probably think twice about messing with someone else's craft if he attends another playoff game.
