Maren Morris, Cassadee Pope Slam Brittany Aldean Over Alleged Transphobia: ‘Easy to Not Be a Scumbag’
Country drama. Maren Morris and Cassadee Pope are clapping back after Brittany Aldean (née Kerr) — the wife of singer Jason Aldean — seemingly shared a transphobic message.“You’d think celebs with beauty brands would see the positives in including LGBTQ+ people in their messaging,” Pope, 32, tweeted on Friday, August 26, referring to Brittany, 33, and her Instagram caption about being a “girly” girl. “But instead, here we are, hearing someone compare their ‘tomboy phase’ to someone wanting to transition.
Real nice.”Pope further noted that while she had “stopped following” Brittany’s account “a long time ago,” she “couldn’t help but address” the controversy after seeing a friend repost the social media upload.Brittany — who married the 45-year-old “Dirt Road Anthem” crooner in 2015 — had shared a makeup tutorial via Instagram earlier this month, in which she compared her former tomboy personality to that of transgender individuals in the process of transitioning.“I’d really like to thank my parents for not changing my gender when I went through my tomboy phase.
