American singer-songwriter Maggie Rogers has called out hecklers, who made sexually harassing comments against her during an on-stage performance last weekend at Austin, Texas.

The 25-year-old is currently on a U.S. Tour to promote her debut album "Heard It in a Past Life." According to her, it was during her Austin City Limits Live at the Moody Theater in Austin, Texas when a man from the audience yelled out and demanded her to "take her top off."

Another man joined in and shouted "you cute though," leaving her with mixed emotions of surprise, fury and confusion. She also said it hurt her feelings on "a really basic level."

Rogers did not detail the succeeding events at the show, but she took it to Twitter to share her sentiments over the incident.

"I step on stage every night with a deep reverence for the stage, my craft, and the privilege that is making music for my job," the singer wrote in her statement. "I've been writing and producing music for 10 years-my body is my greatest tool in communicating that work."

According to Rogers, she wanted to create a safe space for her and her fan community to get together and amplify each other. She gives every part of her every time she steps onstage. In turn, she wanted a place that would allow everyone the sense of relief, release and trust.

Rogers took that moment to take her stand: "There is no place for harassment or disrespect or degradation of any kind at my show."

Maggie Rogers catapulted to fame after being discovered by Pharrell Williams at the Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music at New York University, with her breakout song "Alaska" which she had written for only 15 minutes.

The said song became her big break when it was played to the N.E.R.D. star. The session was filmed and inevitably went viral online, helping her find her way into the music limelight. She was suddenly thrown into a record label bidding war, and since then, she has worked with big names in the music industry such as the Jonas Brothers and Haim.

In an interview with The Independent this January, Rogers shared how she felt "scared and overwhelmed for a really long time," especially after her private life suddenly shifted into a public one very quickly. She experienced having a panic attack and running off stage while sobbing.

Alongside the fame she has attained was the immense amount of anxiety that kept on weighing down on her.

Rogers has been known to put an emphasis on writing songs that reflect the world around her, including her real-life experiences.

In her single "Lights On," she sings: "Would you hear me out if I told you I was terrified for days?... Thought I was going to break." Another hit titled "Hashtag" tackled "global grief" that pushed her to get "drenched in rage," referencing to the day Donald Trump was elected as the U.S. President.

Rogers claims she doesn't want to be a woman in music -- she just wanted to be a musician. She added: "I don't want my gender to be my genre."
