Video footage of an ex-porn star is going viral after she was dragged out of a Matt Rife show by Radio City Music Hall security.
Lisa Ann was taken away by NYPD officers after being kicked out of the audience for allegedly using her phone during last night’s show.
“I didn’t do anything wrong, I didn’t touch my phone, I wanted to see Matt Rife because he’s a friend of mine,” she shouted in the video.
Ann shared the images on her X account (formerly Twitter) last night and posted photos of the arrest early this morning.
‘I have no words for what I just experienced. Traumatic, unnecessary and extreme are at the top of my list of emotions,” she wrote in an X post.

Rife and Ann are old friends and previously hosted a radio show together. She sat in the second row of his Radio City Music Hall show before she was kicked out
Ann sat in the second row at Radio City Music Hall during last night’s show and took a photo from her seat shortly before the show started.
She claimed that she put her phone away shortly before the show, but one of her friends looked at her phone to check a text message.
Eight ushers asked her to leave the room shortly afterwards and she was eventually led away by the police.
Police handcuffed Ann around 10:20 p.m. and told her she could go to jail or be placed in a nearby hospital at 5150.
NYPD officers later told her that there was no one around to take her to the police station and that they had to call an ambulance.
Ann had been handcuffed on 6th Avenue for 45 minutes before the ambulance arrived.
However, the ambulance left shortly afterwards after the paramedic on scene refused to take her into hospital custody.
According to police officersthere may be another side to the story than what Ann says on social media.

NYPD officers said Ann acted disorderly and combative after being told she was not allowed to videotape at Radio City Music Hall.
Officers also believed that Ann seemed ‘off’ and that she may have been having a ‘psychiatric episode’ due to her ‘erratic behavior.’
The venue’s staff also admitted that the former porn star had consumed a few alcoholic drinks.
Ann has received support from social media users all over X and Instagram, including adult film star Misha Montana.

Social media users are supporting Ann for what she went through, while others believe some details have been left out about what really got her kicked out and arrested.
“Lisa, I’m so sorry this happened to you, it’s outrageous! Sending you so much love and support,” Montana wrote on X.
Another user believes that “some crucial scenes” were missed.
However, other users choose to support her and have even discriminated against the NYPD for their actions.
“I would never let something like this happen in my area,” another X user wrote.
‘If I had been there, I would have taken you out of there. Thank you for always being an inspiration to me.”
