Jason Aldean and his wife, Brittany Aldean, responded to “hateful” commenters in a clip shared on Brittany’s Instagram story on Thursday evening (April24).
Brittany had previously shared a behind-the-scenes look at her process of working with a stylist based in Los Angeles, California, through she lives in Nashville, Tennessee. The reel shows Brittany unpacking a shipment of new wardrobe pieces and going through her new looks. She wrote in her caption on the reel she on Wednesday (April 23), “let’s not talk about the shipping bill 🫠”
That reel apparently sparked “hateful” reactions from commenters, and the Aldeans took to Instagram to address it.
“I just wanted to hop on here…and talk to you guys about the reel that I posted yesterday, which was, basically, having a stylist from L.A. and then living in Nashville,” Brittany said in the video with Jason on her Instagram story. “And I was showing you guys the behind-the-scenes of that whole process, which, a lot goes into that. And I just know what I like to watch on other people’s pages, and so, a lot of times I think that you guys are interested, and a lot of you I know are. But there’s some people that are just so hateful in everything, and I don’t know. I guess I’m just so busy in life that I don’t have time to hate on people like that. That’s just not my personality either.”
Jason added, “well, ultimately, it’s your page. And you show your life — our life — what we do, and if people like it, that’s cool. There’s a lot of you guys out there that are supportive and cool. And then there’s also a fraction of people out there who are just a**holes, and say the most inappropriate, stupid sh*t.” Brittany agreed, “true.”
On the next slide on her Instagram story, Brittany thanked her social media followers who “are so sweet and cool, and are always supportive and come to the page and just comment nice things. Or, you know, not at all, which is still fine. But the people that need to announce their departure, or say things like — just rude things, it’s just so unnecessary.”
“Listen, babe, there’s a lot of haters out there. They even say crazy sh*t like, ‘Jason, man, your album sucks.’ Stuff like that. Crazy stuff,” the “Whiskey Drink” artist said. “So you just know they’re out there. You just have to take it for what it’s worth. Miserable people. But we got some cool ones. Thank you guys.”
The couple, who recently celebrated their 10-year wedding anniversary, thanked their fans before ending the video on Brittany’s story. Watch the reel here:
