X user weighed in, @Officialxzavia commented: “first of all he did it on purpose. how do you unlock your phone, get on the app, swipe over to camera, and then slide it to select live??? That’s too many steps for it to be an accident I’m sorry 😭.”
@LawsNation commented: “As a content creator I’m about 99.9% sure the Shannon Sharp audio was staged… It’s way to difficult to go live on Instagram by accident…”
