Comedian Natalie Cuomo was doing crowd work during her set at the DC Comedy Loft .

She was confronted by a male heckler who wasn't willing to play along.

After the heckler was kicked out, Cuomo read his texts to his friend live on stage.

Some fans applauded Cuomo 's "female rage" and the way she stood up for herself.

"Man, she is sensitive, especially for a comedian." Then she texted him back a selfie of her holding up the middle finger. Sounds like maybe he came prepared to raise a stink with whatever comic was on stage. Whether Cuomo handled the situation perfectly or not, I think we can all agree that's in pretty poor taste..
