Country singer Ella Langley brutally shuts down fan who asked her out... amid rumors of Tucker Wetmore romance

Country singer Ella Langley wasn't flattered in the least when a TikTok influencer named Tiki asked her out after her concert in Knoxville, Tennessee, on Thursday night.

The 27-year-old newcomer, whose hit song Choosin' Texas has surpassed Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas on the Billboard charts, went viral for bluntly rejecting the fan, who made his romantic overtures known by yelling through a parking lot fence, as seen in a video posted to his TikTok account.

'Ella, how many likes to take you on a date?' Tiki wanted to know.

The brunette, who was surrounded by members of her band on the other side of the fence, looked startled at first before answering.

'Not enough in the world,' she told him before looking away and shaking her head in apparent disbelief at his nerve.

‘Ahhh,' Tiki could be heard sighing.

But Tiki the streamer, as he wants to be called, took it like a pro and, turning to the camera, said: 'You miss 100 percent of the shots you don't take.'

He was, of course, repeating a famous quote by hockey legend Wayne Gretzky.

Fans were divided, with some feeling her reply was too harsh.

'This rubbed me the wrong way. And I like her,' one fan wrote.

'Literally what is her problem?' another wanted to know.

'She could have laughed and said no in a whole different way,' a third ventured to say.

Others argued she had every right to put up a virtual wall after being yelled at in public and through a fence no less.

'Being screamed at 24/7 would get irritating,' one supporter wrote, while another clapped back in Langley's defense: 'There's no way yall are mad at her for reacting negatively to a kid screaming at her asking to take her on a date in front of her team??? Yall gotta go outside.'

Another chimed in: 'This made me like her even more. Its not her job to be nice to random men. She set her boundary, respect it.'

Yet another defender added to the mix: 'She doesn't have to go on a date with a random guy just because he asked.. are y'all okay???'

Amid the back-and-forth, Langley explained her terse response to Tiki's over-eager proposition in the comments.

'It was meant to come off as dark humor. You said that and it got quiet and I got nervous,' she wrote.

Tiki wouldn't have stood a chance anyway, as Langley appears to have another fellow.

Langley is reportedly dating country singer Tucker Wetmore, 26, per E! News.

Neither has commented on their relationship status, but they were photographed subtly leaving the Nashville Songwriter Awards together through a side door at the Ryman Auditorium on September 22.

'It was meant to come off as dark humor. You said that and it got quiet and I got nervous,' she wrote amid backlash over the way she responded to Tiki's unusual proposition
