What Is The Feud Between Maren Morris and Brittany Aldean?
In July 2022, Brittany Aldean posted an Instagram reel with the caption, “I’d really like to thank my parents for not changing my gender when I went through my tomboy phase.”
Maren took to Twitter and indirectly tweeted about Brittany’s Instagram post. She tweeted, “It’s so easy to, like, not be a scumbag human? Sell your clip-ins and zip it, Insurrection Barbie.” Maren told in an interview that she didn’t run it by anyone before posting that tweet.
She said, “I hate feeling like I need to be the hall monitor of treating people like human beings in country music. But there’s a very insidious culture of people feeling very comfortable being transphobic and homophobic and racist, and that they can wrap it in a joke and no one will ever call them out for it.”
In the interview, Maren also said, “Look, I’m not a victim in this and neither is she. But I don’t have feelings of kindness when it comes to humans being made fun of for questioning their identity, especially kids.”
