Brittany Aldean Claims Her Comments On Gender Identity Were “Taken Out Of Context” After Backlash

Brittany Aldean, Jason Aldean’s wife, posted a transphobic joke on Instagram, causing a weekend feud with country stars Maren Morris and Cassadee Pope.

On Wednesday (August 31), Brittany posted photos of her new merchandise to Instagram, which reads “Don’t tread on our kids” in the trademark Barbie typeface. Billboard has reached out to Mattel for their thoughts on the typeface. She captioned the image, “As is customary over the last week, my words have been taken out of context.” “I’ve decided to make something positive out of the negative interpretation of my words.” Here is our brand new Barbie-themed assortment. Through this launch, we hope to contribute to @operationlightshine’s fight against child exploitation and human trafficking.”

On Friday (August 26), Brittany posted a longer statement about transgender youth and their right to gender-affirming care on Instagram Stories: “Promoting child genital mutilation in the name of ‘gender affirming care’ is one of the worst evils imaginable. As she put it in her letter, “I will always stand by my children and do everything in my power to protect their innocence.” When asked what they wanted to be, Memphis said “a dinosaur” and Navy said “a cat.” Young people. Some parents are so driven by a need for their children to fit in that they’ll make major decisions for them even if they’re too young to fully understand the repercussions. “I’m grateful that my parents let me go through my tomboy phase without changing my gender.” —
