Jason Aldean

[Daraebe]

He calls his act of kissing someone that is not his wife a "inappropriate act" The word is called cheating as you don't have to have sex to cheat on your spouse.

[carebear4eva]

Sorry, I'm not buying. This is the most obvious attempt to portray his actions as a minor screw-up, which immediately raises the question "But surely the woman should have known better. She's obviously a whore".

Gee, like that's never been done before.

[carriecountrystar]

Shameful really. And I'm not just talking about him, but ANYONE who would cheat on their spouse. It's sad to see people treat marriage so lightly like it's just something to do when in the honeymoon stage of love when marriage is about loving the other more than yourself through thick and thin "till death do you part".

I remember my mom telling me about how my grandfather's love for my grandmother was true love that he NEVER looked at another women-having only eyes for his wife throughout their entire marriage. Even now, with both in their late 80s, they still only have eyes for each other.

Cheating is a HUGE act of betrayal and I can't even imagine how his wife must be feeling now. Worse yet are the kids. I do hope he's truly repentant and willing to do whatever it takes to make amends to his family.

[teesharky]

Clearing what up? He is still in the wrong. At least he owned up to his mistake.

Agree. He didn't clear anything up. He admitted his guilt. lol

But- I do think it is good that he came forward right away. That makes him look much better then avoiding it or denying the photos.

but I wonder if there isn't more to the story though? How did he meet this girl, and was this their first meeting, or was it going on before?

Or- has he cheated before, but not been caught? Oh well. Either way the truth is out now so his poor wife and kids will have to deal with it now.

agree. He was clearly downplaying the seriousness of it in his statement. Makes me wonder if it has happened before?

Gee, like that's never been done before.

He is just as responsible for cheating as the girl is. I hate how it's usually the girl who's called the "whore" or "homewrecker" when the guy willingly and knowingly cheated on their partner. Why isn't the guy in as much trouble as the girl then? What makes his actions an "honest mistake" because he's not perfect when the girl is "obviously" a slut? Like, who knew it took two to tango?

yes the girl will bear the brunt of this. She will be the whore, like Kristen Steward was....while Rupert was left alone mostly. Really unfair.

Although-- in all truth- the girl does deserve some slack too for kissing a married man. She should have known better. Kristen too.

Both are at fault.

[bigbluegrl23]

if he was a woman, he would be called every ****ing name in the book.

If you don't act like a jackass and get caught kissing another woman when you are married you don't have to make a public statement.

No free pass for you, Aldean.

[JB172]

Yup. she is the one that people said looked like Carrie

Yeah, she was the NBA cheerleader.

[Claire2004]

This is not clearing up. This is damage control by his PR team.

[Schrodinger]

Miranda and Blake have never come right out and said there was infidelity. Miranda has made comments that may indicate that there was some form of connection before Blake's marriage was dissolved, but they certainly don't flaunt it or seem to want to make a big deal about it to get attention. LeAnn, on the other hand, very much brought a lot of attention to her infidelity and divorce. There have been a few situations in country music that are much like Miranda and Blake where neither party really wants to come out and say that they got together before one or both marriages were dissolved. Garth and Trisha come to mind. They seemed to want to sweep things under the rug pretty quick and not focus on what may or may not have happened.

Friends or not, I would hope Carrie and Brad wouldn't even mention this whole thing .

Regarding Jason's statement, I smell something a little rotten lol. Anyway, I hope he is telling the truth, and that he can work things out with his wife.

Miranda and and her mama both talked about this. It was during a duet with Blake that her mom said she could tell Miranda was falling for Blake. But he was married and she said Miranda and her talked about it and he was off limits and she was going to have to deal with it. Blake's marriage was already on the rocks. They waited sometime after the divorce before seeing each other. There has never been any substantiation of any cheating or that Miranda was the cause of Blake's marriage failing. This is the same crap Amy Grant and Vince Gill had to deal with. Amy's career in Christian music was hurt by her divorce, as was/is any other artists, but then came all the nasty rumors about her and Gill. I don't know and don't want to know why her marriage failed but Vince had nothing to do with it. They were both single when they fell in love.

[opry051008]

Aww, I really thought Jason was a good guy.

[Audra]

this is my opinion but I don't think this will really wreck Jason's career, it won't help him but I doubt it will completely ruin him, people will still buy his music and he will still mark his name in country music...I will still support his music and buy his music and all and go to his concerts, that won't change

[conorlovescarrie:)]

Oh shoot!

He just wrote this on Facebook.

"Hey Guys – I wanted to talk to you directly, so you were hearing the truth from me and not just reading allegations made about my personal life on gossip web sites.
The truth is that I screwed up. I had too much to drink, let the party get out of hand and acted inappropriately at a bar. I left alone, caught the bus to our next show and that's the end of the story. I ultimately ended up embarrassing my family and myself. I'm not perfect, and I'm sorry for disappointing you guys. I really appreciate being able to work through this privately with my family and for all your continued support."

Definitely reads like from a publicist. "acted inappropriately" is a bit light. He lusted, he touched, he kissed, ..., he cheated. The phrases "I left alone" and "I'm not perfect" is what? suppose to exonerate himself? I'm sorry for "disappointing you guys"...WHAT? how about disappointing your wife first and foremost?

This comes off totally insincere and not coming from the heart. JMO.

I agree. Those phrase "I left alone" and "I'm not perfect" do not sit right with me. Dumb excuses IMO. So by saying "I left alone" is he saying that this is nothing major because they didn't have sex? And what the hell does his use of "I'm not perfect" mean? When I think of my man as not being perfect, I imagine him as this man who forgets to put the toothpaste cap on, snores at night, leaves dirty clothes and wet towels on the floor, or occasionally forgets anniversaries, not a man caught fondling someone else in a bar. Dumb excuses.

Lol, don't get me wrong, Ms. Kerr is obviously a lousy, crappy person to go around snogging married men. HOWEVER, she is NOT the one who made vows of ever-lasting love and loyalty. She is NOT the one who entered a supposedly sacred covenant.

I totally disagree when people say that there is equal blame to share. There isn't. The blame on the married individual ought to be a 100 times more than the other person. Regardless of the genders of the people involved.

In this case one person found a mildly attractive man in a bar, who she probably knew was married. She knew what she was doing was wrong, but the people she was hurting were likely complete strangers to her. You cannot betray someone you don't know. The case is TOTALLY different for Jason.

[carebear4eva]

Also, not that hot. Just saying. Jason, not the Carrie-doppelganger.

There's a thought...Maybe Jason only hooked up with her, because he's secretly obsessed with Carrie ever since she handed him his ass with Paradise City!

[TOPDOG1001]

It won't ruin his career... it probably will ruin his marriage, which is sad. "Sorry, just drank too much and made out with a 25 year old cheerleader! Woops!" And not to say he isn't responsible for his own life and actions, but wasn't there someone with him who could have been like...um, dude?? Lets go home??
