And while sounding humbled and grateful for the fans attending the holiday shows, the American Idol alum took to Instagram Wednesday to reveal that dozens of people walked out during a break in his concert in Delta, Utah after he spoke about his queer identity.

The venue employee went on to reveal how they wished the show would have 'ended after O Holy Night and people would have left feeling like they had just experienced a Christmas.'.

In his Instagram post, Archuleta confessed that he could feel the tension in the venue just before people started to get up and leave.

'The person singing those songs on stage was no different from the person at the end of the show,' he wrote to fans about his concert in Delta, Utah.

The Florida native, who grew up in Utah since he was six-years-old, maintained that he didn't say 'anything explicit or inappropriate' during the show, and that 'it's worth losing those few dozen people who walked out' in order for others to hear his truth so that everyone can know 'they're not alone in this journey.'
