Gillian Anderson is addressing the viral video showing her confronting fans outside her London West End show and asking them to stop purchasing front-row seats.

The actress explained that the women are longtime fans whom she has known for years, but admitted that their presence in the front row can sometimes be “a tad distracting” given how intimate the theatre setting is.

Anderson says her comments weren’t meant to be harsh but were simply about maintaining the focus and atmosphere of the performance.
