<p>Country star <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jason-aldean">Jason Aldean&#8217;s</a> wife, Brittany Aldean, said she refuses to &#8220;wear a brand that has any affiliation&#8221; with the &#8220;sexual exploitation of children&#8221; following <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/balenciaga">Balenciaga&#8217;s</a> &#8220;disgusting&#8221; BDSM-themed ad campaign.</p>
<p>During <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/video/6316641642112?utm_campaign=later-linkinbio-foxnews&amp;utm_content=later-31519661&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_source=linkin.bio">Fox News</a>&#8216; &#8220;Tucker Carlson Tonight,&#8221; the host asked <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trash-day-brittany-aldean-shares-photo-of-balenciaga-gear-stuffed-in-garbage-bags">Brittany</a> about her recent Instagram post showing her carrying out trash bags filled with the fashion house&#8217;s products, which she captioned, &#8220;It’s trash day [Balenciaga].&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I for one love fashion,&#8221; Aldean shared. &#8220;I&#8217;m super into fashion, but I refuse to represent or wear a brand that has any affiliation, any affiliation, with sexual exploitation of children or the sexualization of children. It&#8217;s disgusting.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;And what they showed us recently in their campaign is pure evil,&#8221; she added.</p>

<p>Carlson agreed and asked the singer&#8217;s wife about the public outcry.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s absolutely worth taking seriously because every single detail of the photo shoot was meticulously thought out,&#8221; Aldean explained, noting that she&#8217;s been on photo shoots before and said weeks and months of prep work goes into these things.</p>
<p>The fashion brand, which celebrities like Kim Kardashian often wear, came under fire last month after its website displayed images featuring its “Toy Stories” campaign that showed child models posing with the brand’s teddy bear handbags, with the bears dressed in BDSM-themed attire from its Paris Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2023 collection.</p>
<p>&#8220;For them to think that it&#8217;s appropriate to put children in a situation that we have seen much less for a campaign for their brand is disgusting,&#8221; she added.</p>
<p>&#8220;It was not a mistake,&#8221; Aldean continued. &#8220;They have shown us who they are. It&#8217;s disgusting. It&#8217;s evil. And the common denominator here is that we have to stand up. We have to fight for our children.&#8221;</p>
<p>Brittany concluded by insisting the backlash isn&#8217;t about &#8220;religion&#8221; or politics but &#8220;protecting the children at all costs.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Everybody should be outraged,&#8221; she added.</p>
<p>The fashion house apologized and said it was taking legal action against its production company. On Monday, reports surfaced that Balenciaga had dropped its $25 million lawsuit against the producers of the fetish-themed shoot, the <a href="https://nypost.com/2022/12/03/balenciaga-drops-25m-lawsuit-against-producers-of-disturbing-campaign/">New York Post</a> noted.</p>

<p><script async src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">While Brittany is being applauded for taking a stand against the fashion brand, some celebs are taking heat for not speaking out. The brand made headlines for an ad campaign that included images of young children holding teddy bears wearing bondage gear.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I have been quiet for the past few days, not because I haven’t been disgusted and outraged by the recent Balenciaga campaigns, but because I wanted an opportunity to speak to their team to understand for myself how this could have happened,” Kim Kardashian </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/kim-kardashian-slammed-for-statement-over-balenciaga-scandal-there-is-no-grey-area-here"><span style="font-weight: 400;">wrote in a statement</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> shared on social media several days after the story broke.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I appreciate Balenciaga’s removal of the campaigns and apology. In speaking with them, I believe they understand the seriousness of the issue and will take the necessary measures for this to never happen again,” the reality star continued. She claimed to be “re-evaluating” her relationship with the brand.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">But fans said her response wasn’t strong enough. “Kim you don’t need the money from them. The red line has been crossed and as a mother of four and decent human being, you know that,” popular Twitter account Gays Against Groomers wrote.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Meanwhile, Balenciaga has since issued multiple apologies and <a href="https://www.cnn.com/style/article/balenciaga-lawsuit-controversial-campaign/index.html">filed</a> a $25 million lawsuit against the production company responsible for the campaign. </span></p>

U.S.

<p>Liberal country star Maren Morris ended up skipping the red carpet entrance at the CMA Awards show after attacking singer Jason Aldean&#8217;s wife Brittany over a post that she claimed was transphobic.</p>
<p>The <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/country-music">32-year-old</a> country music star did not walk the red carpet at the 2022 Country Music Association Awards show along with the Aldeans and other country stars, despite being nominated for an Album of the Year for her recent album &#8220;Humble Quest,&#8221; <a href="https://pagesix.com/2022/11/10/maren-morris-skips-cmas-2022-red-carpet-after-brittany-jason-aldean-spat/">Page Six</a> reported in a piece published Thursday.</p>
<p>The &#8220;My Church&#8221; hitmaker was eventually spotted at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville with her husband Ryan Hurd just before the Album of the Year category was announced, the outlet noted.</p>
<p>After the winner, Luke Combs, was announced for his album &#8220;Growin&#8217; Up,&#8221; Hurd and Morris were seen leaving the Tennessee venue.</p>

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>Morris previously said she was thinking of  skipping this year&#8217;s award show because she wasn&#8217;t &#8220;comfortable going&#8221; after she got into a public spat on social media with <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jason-aldean">Aldean&#8217;s</a> wife, as <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/liberal-country-star-says-shes-not-comfortable-going-to-cma-awards-after-attacking-brittany-aldean-over-trans-post">The Daily Wire</a> previously reported.</p>
<p>&#8220;Honestly, I haven&#8217;t decided if I&#8217;m gonna go,&#8221; the &#8220;Rich&#8221; hitmaker <a href="https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/music/story/2022-09-20/maren-morris-brittany-jason-aldean-cmas">replied</a>. &#8220;I&#8217;m very honored that my record is nominated. But I don&#8217;t know if I feel [at] home there right now.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;So many people I love will be in that room, and maybe I&#8217;ll make a game-time decision and go,&#8221; she added. &#8220;But as of right now, I don&#8217;t feel comfortable going.&#8221;</p>
<p>The comments come after Morris attacked Brittany Aldean over a reel she shared on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/ChnopFIpZhu/">Instagram</a> in promotion of her new clothing line, &#8220;Don&#8217;t Tread On Our Kids.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;d really like to thank my parents for not changing my gender when I went through my tomboy phase,&#8221; Brittany captioned her post. &#8220;I love this girly life.&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jason-aldean-dropped-by-pr-firm-after-wifes-transgender-post">Aldean</a> responded to his wife&#8217;s post by writing in the comments, &#8220;Lmao!! I&#8217;m glad they didn&#8217;t too, cause you and I wouldn&#8217;t have worked out.&#8221;</p>
<p>Brittany then came under attack by several stars, including Morris, who suggested that the singer&#8217;s wife keep her mouth shut, as previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/one-of-the-worst-evils-brittany-aldean-refuses-to-back-down-after-liberal-country-stars-attack-her-for-transgender-post">reported</a>.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s so easy to, like, not be a scumbag human?&#8221; Maren <a href="https://twitter.com/MarenMorris/status/1563245029019484160?s=20&amp;t=4Gqjtx7VDxLkb2vqL1BbKQ">tweeted</a>. &#8220;Sell your clip-ins and zip it, Insurrection Barbie.&#8221;</p>
<p>Brittany released a long statement explaining, &#8220;Advocating for the genital mutilation of children under the disguise of love and calling it &#8216;gender affirming care&#8217; is one of the worst evils.&#8221; The entirety of her statement can be read <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/brittany-aldean-claps-back-with-barbie-inspired-dont-tread-on-our-kids-clothing-line-following-trans-controversy">here</a>.

Liberal Country Star Skips Red Carpet At Award Show After Attacking Brittany Aldean Over Trans Post

<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/country-music">Country</a> star Jason Aldean and wife Brittany Aldean dressed as fictional anchors Ron Burgundy and Veronica Corningstone as they trolled singer Maren Morris and the left with their Halloween costume video.</p>
<p>In a clip shared on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CkYtDeZgR-C/">Instagram</a> on Monday by the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jason-aldean">45-year-old country star</a>, fans see the couple sporting wigs as the two read pretend news stories from &#8220;Channel 4 News&#8221; from &#8220;Nash Vegas&#8221; while mocking themselves. It comes after Morris and others on the left attacked them over Brittany&#8217;s post about transgenderism.</p>
<p>&#8220;Good evening Nash Vegas and welcome to Channel 4 News,&#8221; Aldean said in character, as he introduced who he and Brittany were &#8230; &#8220;And we are here to bring you the news as always cause you know we are 80% of the time unbiased 100% of the time.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;In our most unbiased story of the evening, tonight we tell a tale of a wannabe country artist and his wife, Brittany and Jason Aldean,&#8221; Brittany, as Veronica, shared. &#8220;&#8230; According to Brittany&#8217;s recent tweet she hates all animals. Based on the tweet that says, I love dogs. Sounds like a PR nightmare.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;Now most of you may not know who Brittany and Jason Aldean are,&#8221; she added. &#8220;But if you like to Google, you could potentially find them on page five or six. [New York Post&#8217;s celebrity page is known as Page Six].&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I actually found them on page 13, her and her bush-league country music artist of a husband just need to zip it,&#8221; Jason, as Burgundy, replied.</p>
<p>&#8220;Stay country Nashville,&#8221; the &#8220;Dirt Road Anthem&#8221; star closed out his segment.</p>
<p>And &#8220;stay woke everyone,&#8221; Brittany, as Veronica, added, repeatedly.</p>
<p>The comments come after Morris attacked Aldean&#8217;s wife over a reel she shared on Instagram in promotion of her new clothing line, &#8220;Don&#8217;t Tread On Our Kids.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;d really like to thank my parents for not changing my gender when I went through my tomboy phase,&#8221; <a href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/ChnopFIpZhu/">Brittany</a> captioned her post. &#8220;I love this girly life.&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jason-aldean-dropped-by-pr-firm-after-wifes-transgender-post">Aldean</a> responded to his wife&#8217;s post by writing in the comments, &#8220;Lmao!! I&#8217;m glad they didn&#8217;t too, cause you and I wouldn&#8217;t have worked out.&#8221;</p>
<p>Brittany then came under attack by several stars, including Morris, who suggested that the singer&#8217;s wife keep her mouth shut, as previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/one-of-the-worst-evils-brittany-aldean-refuses-to-back-down-after-liberal-country-stars-attack-her-for-transgender-post">reported</a>.</p>

‘Need To Zip It’: Country Star Jason Aldean And Wife Brittany Troll Maren Morris And Left With Halloween Video

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The feud between </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jason-aldean"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Jason Aldean</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> and </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/celebrities"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Maren Morris</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> is raging on. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Aldean mentioned her name during a recent Nashville concert and clearly, the crowd was on his side. The 45-year-old </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/country-music"><span style="font-weight: 400;">country singer</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> teased that he would invite a special guest to play with him and listed several names as potential options. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I thought, man, who could I call? I got some friends in town,” he told the audience, videos from social media show. “I could call Luke Bryan. I could call Kane Brown. See if Kenny Chesney’s here and not at the beach.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The crowd could be heard cheering wildly after each suggestion. Then Aldean suggested “Maren Morris” and that all changed.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When many in the stadium started booing at the mention of her name, Aldean pretended to be confused as to why they were reacting that way.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Ultimately, the “Trouble With a Heartbreak” singer introduced his surprise guest, fellow country star Morgan Wallen, and performed Wallen’s song “Whiskey Glasses” and Aldean’s “You Make It Easy” with him, per </span><a href="https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/jason-aldean-concert-boos-maren-morris-amid-brittany-aldean-feud/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">US Weekly</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The beef between Aldean and Morris stems from a previous incident between Morris and Aldean’s wife in August. Brittany Aldean posted a video to Instagram with the caption, “I’d really like to thank my parents for not changing my gender when I went through my tomboy phase. I love this girly life.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Jason made a joke about that too, saying, “Lmao!! Im glad they didn’t too, cause you and I wouldn’t have worked out,” along with the cry-laughing emoji. He later got dropped from his PR firm because of the comments and controversy.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Her stance got a lot of support but also triggered some backlash, most notably from liberal country stars like Morris and Cassadee Pope.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“It’s so easy to, like, not be a scumbag human? Sell your clip-ins and zip it, Insurrection Barbie,” Morris wrote in her reply.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“You’d think celebs with beauty brands would see the positives in including LGBTQ+ people in their messaging,” Pope echoed. “But instead here we are, hearing someone compare their ‘tomboy phase’ to someone wanting to transition. Real nice.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The feud continued over the following weeks, with Brittany selling Insurrection Barbie t-shirts. She also clarified her stance on the trans argument, as The Daily Wire </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/my-barbie-jason-aldean-shows-support-for-wife-brittany-as-her-transgender-post-inspires-fury"><span style="font-weight: 400;">reported</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Advocating for the genital mutilation of children under the disguise of love and calling it ‘gender affirming care’ is one of the worst evils,” Brittany said.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I will always support my children and do what I can to protect their innocence,” she continued. “Some parents want to be accepted by society so badly, that they’re willing to make life-altering decisions for their children who aren’t old enough to fully comprehend the consequences of those actions.”</span></p>

Jason Aldean Jokes About Maren Morris At Nashville Concert, Crowd Boos Her Name

<p>Country singer <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/brittany-aldean-claps-back-with-barbie-inspired-dont-tread-on-our-kids-clothing-line-following-trans-controversy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Maren Morris</a> defended her attacks on Jason Aldean&#8217;s wife, claiming that when she called <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/the-country-wife-who-wont-back-down-inside-brittany-aldeans-conservatism/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Brittany Aldean</a> a &#8220;scumbag human,&#8221; her heart was in a &#8220;good place.&#8221;</p>
<p>Morris referenced the online feud — which began with a post from Aldean that Morris viewed as &#8220;transphobic&#8221; — during a <a href="https://pagesix.com/2022/09/30/maren-morris-defends-getting-heated-amid-brittany-jason-aldean-feud/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">GLAAD interview</a> on Thursday, and defended her remarks. She argued that sometimes highly-charged emotions came along with being a champion for certain causes.</p>
<p>&#8220;I don’t think that you can do this all the time with sunshine and rainbows,&#8221; Morris said, appearing to suggest that she had been trying to educate Aldean rather than insult her. &#8220;I think you need to have the tough conversations so people can understand what’s going on.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;You can save someone’s life by having the right information,&#8221; she added.</p>
<p>Morris went on to explain that her goal had been to &#8220;correct&#8221; Aldean because what she said was &#8220;completely untrue about trans youth and gender-affirming care and what it actually entails.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;It’s not like we’re talking about what your favorite color is. We’re talking about people’s lives,&#8221; she continued. &#8220;It’s really sensitive.&#8221;</p>
<p>The conflict began when Aldean shared a makeup video via Instagram, adding the caption, &#8220;I’d really like to thank my parents for not changing my gender when I went through my tomboy phase. I love this girly life.&#8221;</p>
<p>Cassadee Pope drew attention to the video in a tweet: &#8220;You&#8217;d think celebs with beauty brands would see positives in including LGBTQ+ people in their messaging. But instead here we are, hearing someone compare their &#8216;tomboy phase&#8217; to someone wanting to transition. Real nice.&#8221;</p>
<p>Morris responded in a tweet of her own, saying, &#8220;It’s so easy to, like, not be a scumbag human? Sell your clip-ins and zip it, Insurrection Barbie.&#8221;</p>

<p>Liberal <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/country-music" target="_blank" rel="noopener">country</a> star Maren Morris said that she&#8217;s skipping this year&#8217;s CMA Awards because she&#8217;s not &#8220;comfortable going&#8221; after she attacked singer Jason Aldean&#8217;s wife, Brittany, over a post about transgenderism.</p>
<p>During the 32-year-old country singer&#8217;s <a href="https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/music/story/2022-09-20/maren-morris-brittany-jason-aldean-cmas" target="_blank" rel="noopener">interview</a> with the Los Angeles Times, Morris was asked if she had thought about what it will be like when she sees <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jason-aldean" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jason</a> and Brittany at the Country Music Association Awards in November following their comments. Morris has been nominated for a CMA Award for album of the year.</p>
<p>&#8220;Honestly, I haven&#8217;t decided if I&#8217;m gonna go,&#8221; the &#8220;Rich&#8221; hitmaker replied. &#8220;I&#8217;m very honored that my record is nominated. But I don&#8217;t know if I feel [at] home there right now.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;So many people I love will be in that room, and maybe I&#8217;ll make a game-time decision and go,&#8221; she added. &#8220;But as of right now, I don&#8217;t feel comfortable going.&#8221;</p>
<p>At one point, the &#8220;My Church&#8221; hitmaker talked about how there&#8217;s &#8220;two country musics&#8221; right now.</p>

<p>&#8220;I think there are people in country music that want it to be niche,&#8221; Morris explained. &#8220;They don&#8217;t want it to expand. They don&#8217;t care about it becoming more inclusive. It&#8217;s theirs, and everyone else is an other, or woke, or whatever.&#8221;</p>

Readers Pass

<p>Country star <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jason-aldean" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jason Aldean</a> has been dropped by his public relations firm following the backlash against his wife Brittany Aldean&#8217;s social media post about <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/transgender" target="_blank" rel="noopener">transgenderism</a>, despite her stating later that her comments were &#8220;taken out of context.&#8221;</p>
<p>The public relations firm that has represented the 45-year-old country singer for the last 17 years announced in a statement to <a href="https://www.billboard.com/pro/jason-aldean-publicity-firm-splits-after-wife-comments/">Billboard</a> magazine that they were no longer the &#8220;best people&#8221; for the job.</p>
<p>&#8220;Music has always been and remains The GreenRoom&#8217;s core focus, so we had to make the difficult decision after 17 years to step away from representing Jason [Aldean],&#8221; Tyne Parrish, co-owner of Nashville-based The GreenRoom shared.</p>
<p>&#8220;We aren&#8217;t the best people for the gig anymore, but will always be big fans of his music — he is one of the greatest live entertainers in country music,&#8221; he added.</p>
<p>It comes after the &#8220;Big Green Tractor&#8221; hitmaker&#8217;s wife shared a reel on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/ChnopFIpZhu/">Instagram</a> in which she thanked her parents for not changing her gender during her &#8220;tomboy phase&#8221; in promotion of her new clothing line, &#8220;Don&#8217;t Tread On Our Kids.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;d really like to thank my parents for not changing my gender when I went through my tomboy phase,&#8221; Aldean&#8217;s post read. &#8220;I love this girly life.&#8221;</p>
<p>Jason then stepped in and reacted to his wife&#8217;s post, &#8220;Lmao!! I&#8217;m glad they didn&#8217;t too, cause you and I wouldn&#8217;t have worked out.&#8221;</p>
<p>Brittany came under attack by several stars, including fellow country singer Maren Morris who suggested that the singer&#8217;s wife keep her mouth shut.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s so easy to, like, not be a scumbag human?&#8221; Maren <a href="https://twitter.com/MarenMorris/status/1563245029019484160?s=20&amp;t=4Gqjtx7VDxLkb2vqL1BbKQ">tweeted</a>. &#8220;Sell your clip-ins and zip it, Insurrection Barbie.&#8221;</p>
<p>Brittany released a longer statement explaining, &#8220;Advocating for the genital mutilation of children under the disguise of love and calling it &#8216;gender affirming care&#8217; is one of the worst evils,&#8221; as <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/brittany-aldean-claps-back-with-barbie-inspired-dont-tread-on-our-kids-clothing-line-following-trans-controversy">The Daily Wire</a> previously reported.</p>
<p>&#8220;I will always support my children and do what I can to protect their innocence,&#8221; she added. &#8220;Some parents want to be accepted by society so badly, that they&#8217;re willing to make life-altering decisions for their children who aren&#8217;t old enough to fully comprehend the consequences of those actions.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Love is protecting your child until they are mature enough as an adult to make their own life decisions,&#8221; Aldean continued. &#8220;Thankful my parents allowed me to go through my tomboy phase without changing my gender. Until then, leave children alone!&#8221;</p>
<p>She posted a message on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch7FZfuuv9E/">social media</a> later that her words were &#8220;taken out of context.&#8221;</p>
<p>As of this publication, there has been no public statement from the country singer about being dropped by his publicity firm.</p>


Jason Aldean Dropped By PR Firm After Wife’s Transgender Post

Jason Aldean Dropped By PR Firm After Wife's Transgender Post

Music

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">There was a time when fans could safely assume that all country music stars leaned conservative, even if they didn’t explicitly say so. Now everything has become political and it’s hard to find any neutral celebrities. And what’s worse, it’s almost impossible to find any famous people who are brave enough to espouse conservative views, even in the realm of country music.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">However, there are a few country artists who aren&#8217;t afraid to say they are conservative. These are some of the most outspoken.</span></p>
<h3><b>Kid Rock</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Love him or hate him, Kid Rock (whose real name is Robert Ritchie) is one of the most vocal conservative country stars in the business. He’s become friends with Donald Trump, he says, and even plays golf with him.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“We ended up becoming buddies,” Kid Rock </span><a href="https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/tv/story/2022-03-22/kid-rock-tucker-carlson-president-donald-trump"><span style="font-weight: 400;">mentioned</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> during a March appearance on “Tucker Carlson Tonight.” “Spend a lot of time [together] at the golf course now. It’s really weird to get phone calls from him and stuff. It’s kind of mind-blowing.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">He said hanging out with Trump is “awesome” and “so much fun.” Ritchie is absolutely not a fan of Joe Biden or Dr. Anthony Fauci, though. In the song “We the People,” which was released in January, the singer said of the administration’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, “Wear your mask. Take your pills. Now a whole generation is mentally ill.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The chorus includes the line “Let’s go, Brandon,” which has become a euphemism for “F*** Joe Biden.”</span></p>
<h3><b>John Rich</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Rich expresses his political views through song lyrics. He leaves nothing up to interpretation in the song,  “Progress.” </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“There’s a hole in this country where its heart used to be, And Old Glory’s divided, on fire in the street…They say Building Back Better will make America great…If that’s a wave of the future, all I’ve got to say…”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Stick your progress where the sun don’t shine/Keep your big mess away from me and mine/If you leave us alone, well we’d all be just fine/Stick your progress where the sun don’t shine.” </span></p>
<h3><b>Jason Aldean</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Jason Aldean says he tried to stay away from politics, but that became impossible after the events of 2020 and 2021. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;When you got kids and you&#8217;re kind of seeing the future for them, like what it looks like, it&#8217;s pretty scary,&#8221; Aldean </span><a href="https://tasteofcountry.com/jason-aldean-politics/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">told</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Taste of Country about why he came out as a conservative. Now there are photos of him hanging out at Trump’s Christmas party. The country star also mentioned playing golf with the former president. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;So I think for me, just seeing that, and you know, just how everything has been the last couple of years has been pretty wild,&#8221; Aldean continued. &#8220;A lot of things that I don&#8217;t agree with, and sometimes it&#8217;s kind of hard for me to sit back and not say anything.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">And even though he’s not thrilled about the backlash, the “You Make It Easy” singer says some things in life are more important than popularity. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“To me there&#8217;s a bigger picture there,&#8221; he said. &#8220;If somebody doesn&#8217;t listen to my music because of the way I think politically, that to me is kind of crazy, but whatever. To me, the bigger issue is we got kids and future generations that, we gotta get this stuff straightened out. It&#8217;s kind of like the wild west out there right now. It&#8217;s just been kind of crazy. It&#8217;s hard to not have an opinion.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Aldean’s wife Brittany is even more outspoken than her husband, and recently got into a public battle with some other country stars when she criticized the idea of children who identify as trans being given hormone blockers, cross-sex hormones, and irreversible surgeries. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The singer </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/my-barbie-jason-aldean-shows-support-for-wife-brittany-as-her-transgender-post-inspires-fury"><span style="font-weight: 400;">supported his wife</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> in the comments of her social media posts, which fans took to mean he felt the same way. </span></p>
<h3><b>Granger Smith</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Smith won’t commit to a political party one way or the other, but his lyrics and performances are patriotic on purpose. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;We talk about these big, American things in a very funny, but proud, way &#8212; celebrating it, in a way,&#8221; Smith told </span><a href="https://theboot.com/granger-smith-honoring-military-patriotism/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Boot</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> of his song, “Merica” in 2016. &#8220;To me, it’s great because that song puts patriotism in America front and center at whatever festival or concert we play. We make sure that America is front and center, because I’m so proud of the opportunities that we have here.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The singer is also vocal about his Christian beliefs and support for the troops. During his Granger Across Merica Pledge of Allegiance Tour, he held concerts on the east coast &#8211; in what he called the thirteen colonies &#8211; reciting the Pledge everywhere he went.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">He was also one of the few country music stars who showed support to Jason Aldean’s wife, Brittany, during the recent controversy over transgender children by liking one of her Instagram posts. </span></p>
<h3><b>Toby Keith</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If anyone has doubts about Keith’s commitment to conservative values, all they need to do is listen to “Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue.” That song sparked a feud between him and Natalie Maines, lead singer of The Dixie Chicks (now known as The Chicks). </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;It&#8217;s ignorant, and it makes country music sound ignorant,&#8221; she said of Keith’s anthem to the American troops. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In retaliation, Keith projected a doctored image of Maines cuddling with Saddam Hussein on a large screen at several of his concerts. He later apologized for his actions and the feud is over, but Keith remains a conservative and even performed at Trump’s inauguration in 2017. Keith was later awarded the National Medal of Arts for “extraordinary contributions to American music” by President Trump in 2021.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“My father was a soldier. He taught his kids to respect veterans,” Keith </span><a href="https://www.dvidshub.net/news/32945/toby-keith-entertains-troops-afghanistan"><span style="font-weight: 400;">said</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> in 2009. “It&#8217;s that respect and the thank you that we have a military that&#8217;s in place and ready to defend our nation; our freedom.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In 2021, Keith concluded a </span><a href="https://twitter.com/tobykeith/status/1436725844207194116"><span style="font-weight: 400;">message</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> on the anniversary of September 11 saying, “Let’s never forget. Always remember. Stay vigilant. And never apologize for being patriotic. Godspeed.” </span></p>
<h3><b>Trace Adkins</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Former “Celebrity Apprentice” contestant Trace Adkins remains faithfully conservative even as his fellow country singer compatriots defect to the other side. The “You’re Gonna Miss This” singer endorsed Mitt Romney in 2012 and performed at the Republican National Convention in Tampa that year. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">He also sang the National Anthem at Tennessee governor Bill Haslam&#8217;s second inauguration in 2015 and did the same a year later during then-candidate Donald Trump&#8217;s nomination at the 2016 Republican National Convention.</span></p>
<h3><b>Brantley Gilbert </b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Not only does Brantley Gilbert have a gigantic second amendment tattoo on his back, the country crooner has also been spotted wearing “Trump for President” hats. When fans started chanting “F*** Joe Biden” at his concert in West Virginia, Gilbert turned the microphone toward them to encourage them. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Oh I’m here for that…I knew I loved West Virginia,” he told the screaming crowd.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">At the same show, Gilbert </span><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@jsnider42/video/6998978057985920261"><span style="font-weight: 400;">laid out</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> exactly who he was.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I feel like I need to tell you a few things about myself in case you don’t know me well,” the singer said. “Number one, I’m a patriot, even though that’s a cuss word right now. Number two, I like my guns and ain’t nobody taking them from me.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“And I see a lot of kids, I understand this is a PG-13 show but that still allows me one F-bomb and I’m gonna choose to use that right now so kids, cover your ears,” he continued. “I don’t like cold weather, cause I don’t f*** with snowflakes.”</span></p>

7 Country Singers Who Remain Unashamed Conservatives

John Rich

Kid Rock

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Instead of backing down or apologizing, Brittany Aldean is turning her feud with leftist </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/country-music"><span style="font-weight: 400;">country stars</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> into a merchandising opportunity.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The wife of musician </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jason-aldean"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Jason Aldean</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> doubled down on her position against certain medical treatments for <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/transgender">transgender</a> </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">youth by debuting a Barbie-inspired clothing line via </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch7FZfuuv9E/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Instagram</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">. The limited release features shirts and a sweatshirt emblazoned with the phrase “Don’t Tread On Our Kids.” </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;Per usual, my words have been taken out of context over the last week,” Aldean shared in the caption. “Instead of getting twisted about the twisting of my words, I’ve chosen to bring some good out of it.” </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">She mentioned that a portion of sales will go to Operation Light Shine, which helps fight child exploitation and human trafficking. The collection is being sold at the brittanyandkasi.com </span><a href="https://brittanyandkasi.com/collections/dont-tread"><span style="font-weight: 400;">store</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> under the collection “TOMBOY.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This all comes after the controversy last week when Aldean posted a video caption saying, “I’d really like to thank my parents for not changing my gender when I went through my tomboy phase. I love this girly life.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Her statement caused critics to react harshly, as The Daily Wire previously </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/my-barbie-jason-aldean-shows-support-for-wife-brittany-as-her-transgender-post-inspires-fury"><span style="font-weight: 400;">reported</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">. Country star Cassadee Pope replied saying, “You’d 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 ‘tomboy phase’ to someone wanting to transition. Real nice.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Maren Morris added her two cents, saying, “It’s so easy to, like, not be a scumbag human? Sell your clip-ins and zip it, Insurrection Barbie.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">But Aldean didn’t back off. She posted a photo of herself with the caption, “I love y’all, that’s all.” Many fans voiced their support and agreement with her original comments. Her husband Jason left a comment saying, “MY Barbie!!”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Aldean also clarified her original statement. She said, “Advocating for the genital mutilation of children under the disguise of love and calling it ‘gender affirming care’ is one of the worst evils,” she shared in reply to all the criticism.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I will always support my children and do what I can to protect their innocence,” she continued. “Some parents want to be accepted by society so badly, that they’re willing to make life-altering decisions for their children who aren’t old enough to fully comprehend the consequences of those actions.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Love is protecting your child until they are mature enough as an adult to make their own life decisions,” Brittany concluded. “Thankful my parents allowed me to go through my tomboy phase without changing my gender. Until then, leave children alone!”</span></p>


Brittany Aldean Claps Back With Barbie-Inspired ‘Don’t Tread On Our Kids’ Clothing Line Following Trans Controversy

Brittany Aldean Claps Back With Barbie-Inspired 'Don't Tread On Our Kids' Clothing Line Following Trans Controversy

Children

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Country singer </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jason-aldean"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Jason Aldean</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> proved once again that he’s on his wife Brittany’s side as she drew criticism for her comments related to the </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/transgender"><span style="font-weight: 400;">transgender</span></a> movement<span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Over the weekend, Brittany posted a </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/Chxc9KRp_G3/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">photo</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> of herself to </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/instagram"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Instagram</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> with the caption, “I love y&#8217;all, that&#8217;s all.” She got lots of support in the comments, but one of the most popular replies came from her singer husband Jason who simply wrote, “MY Barbie!!”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This seemed to be a reference to country singer Maren Morris calling Brittany an “Insurrection Barbie.” </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The drama began last week when Brittany wrote in a video caption, “I’d really like to thank my parents for not changing my gender when I went through my tomboy phase. I love this girly life.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Jason made a joke on that too, saying, “Lmao!! Im glad they didn’t too, cause you and I wouldn’t have worked out,” along with the cry laughing emoji.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Her statement inspired immediate backlash, especially among liberal country stars. As The Daily Wire originally </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/one-of-the-worst-evils-brittany-aldean-refuses-to-back-down-after-liberal-country-stars-attack-her-for-transgender-post"><span style="font-weight: 400;">reported</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, Cassadee Pope hit back with her own opinion. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“You’d think celebs with beauty brands would see the positives in including LGBTQ+ people in their messaging,” Pope shared in her reply. “But instead here we are, hearing someone compare their ‘tomboy phase’ to someone wanting to transition. Real nice.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Morris agreed with Pope, saying, “It’s so easy to, like, not be a scumbag human? Sell your clip-ins and zip it, Insurrection Barbie.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Country star Ryan Hurd, who is married to Morris, backed up his wife’s point of view. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Scoring quick points by picking on trans kids isn&#8217;t something that is brave at all. And I&#8217;m proud of Maren for sticking up for them. Badge of honor to have CO engage in completely normal discourse, too. Shut up and sing only applies to those who you disagree with,” he </span><a href="https://twitter.com/RyanHurd/status/1563597033956851714"><span style="font-weight: 400;">tweeted</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">He continued in a follow-up, “Getting a lot of people telling me our career is over, as if the last time she spoke up about something it disappeared. Honestly, we&#8217;re pretty ok over here. Tours are good, got a 2 year old we love, we&#8217;re f***ing fine, and I promise she isn&#8217;t going to shut up now.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Brittany faced a lot of hate following her statement, but so far she hasn’t backed down and has since reiterated her previous position. “Advocating for the genital mutilation of children under the disguise of love and calling it ‘gender affirming care’ is one of the worst evils,” she shared in reply to all the criticism.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I will always support my children and do what I can to protect their innocence,” she continued. “Some parents want to be accepted by society so badly, that they’re willing to make life-altering decisions for their children who aren’t old enough to fully comprehend the consequences of those actions.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Love is protecting your child until they are mature enough as an adult to make their own life decisions,” Brittany concluded. “Thankful my parents allowed me to go through my tomboy phase without changing my gender. Until then, leave children alone!”</span></p>
