Singer Maren Morris revealed that she is hesitant to go to the Country music Association Awards (CMA) after a feud with Singer Jason Aldeanās wife, Brittany Aldean.
In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Morris said that although she has been nominated, she doesnāt feel ācomfortableā attending this year.
āHonestly, I havenāt decided if Iām gonna go. Iām very honored that my record is nominated. But I donāt know if I feel home there right now. So many people I love will be in that room, and maybe Iāll make a game-time decision and go. But as of right now, I donāt feel comfortable going,ā she said.
On August 23, Brittany Aldean posted a video on her Instagram of her doing a makeup transformation.
She captioned the video, āIād really like to thank my parents for not changing my gender when I went through my tomboy phase. I love this girly life.ā
Morris criticized Brittany Aldean for the caption, in a tweet, writing, āItās so easy to, like, not be a scumbag human? Sell your clip-ins and zip it, Insurrection Barbie.ā
This was in response to Morris agreeing with singer Cassadee Pope after she wrote a tweet calling Brittany Aldean out.
āYouād think celebs with beauty brands would see the positives in including LGBTQ+ people in their messaging. But instead here we are, hearing someone compare their ātomboy phaseā to someone wanting to transition. Real nice,ā Pope wrote.
In the interview, Morris spoke about using the phrase āInsurrection Barbieā toward Brittany Aldean.
āWell, itās kind of true, because the wholeĀ conspiracy theory peddlingĀ of Jan. 6, they totally partook in that. Look, Iām not a victim in this and neither is she,ā she said. āBut I donāt have feelings of kindness when it comes to humans being made fun of for questioning their identity, especially kids. The whole āWhen they go low, we go highā thing doesnāt work with these people. Any resistance movement is not done with kind words. And thereās a lot worse things I couldāve called her.ā
