Controversy skirted

Maren Morris skipped the red carpet at the Country Music Association (CMA) Awards on Wednesday night following her feud with Jason Aldean and his wife Brittany.

The singer shared in an interview with the Los Angeles Times in September that she didn't feel comfortable going to the awards show following her dispute with Brittany on social media. Maren called the country star's wife "insurrection Barbie" and "a scumbag human" on Twitter after Brittany made comments that were considered transphobic.

However, the 32-year-old did ultimately attend the event, which took place at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville. Although she skipped the red carpet, where the Aldeans posed for photographers, Maren and her husband Ryan Hurd were spotted in the audience.

According to People, the couple arrived in time for the presentation of the Album of the Year award, the only category Maren was nominated for. After she was beaten by Luke Combs, Maren gave the musician a standing ovation before leaving the venue.

She later posted a video on TikTok showing her strutting down a hallway in a glitzy black dress and holding a bottle of Champagne. The video, which featured Taylor Swift's song Karma, was accompanied by the caption, "BYOB (bring your own bottle), CMA."
