Country singer Morgan Wallen is coming under fire for whoopin’ it up at a crowded house party this past weekend with no face masks or social distancing.

In various clips that showed up on TikTok, the 27-year-old is seen doing shots, kissing a woman, sitting in the backseat of someone’s car and posing for photos with fans. In the comments, many noted the potential for spreading COVID-19.

The singer was reportedly in Tuscaloosa, Alabama for a college football game.

Wallen’s flouting of COVID-19 rules is particularly troubling because he is scheduled to be the musical guest on this weekend’s Saturday Night Live. The show returned to its studios this month with strict testing protocols in place.

In May, Wallen was arrested and charged with public intoxication and disorderly conduct after being tossed out of Kid Rock’s Big Ass Honky Tonk Rock N' Roll Steakhouse in Nashville.
