Maren Morris’ “Lunatic” Shirt Campaign Raises $100K for LGBTQ+ Nonprofits

Clapping back for a cause.

After Fox News’ Tucker Carlson described Maren Morris a “lunatic country music person” amid her feud with Jason Aldean‘s wife Brittany Aldean, the “Bones” singer decided to turn the ugly situation into something positive. 

On Sep. 2, Maren announced on social media she would be selling T-shirts with the phrase printed on the front. She added that proceeds from sales of the black tees—which also feature the number of the Peer Support & Crisis Hotline for trans youth—will be split between GLAAD’s Transgender Media Program and Trans Lifeline. 

In less than 24 hours, Maren shared that her initiative helped raise a large amount of money for the organizations.

“Over $100K raised,” she shared on Twitter Sep. 3. “Have a great Labor Day weekend, lunatics.”

The beef between Maren, 32 and Brittany, 33, started on Aug. 23 when Jason’s wife shared an Instagram Reel of herself applying makeup, with the caption, “I’d really like to thank my parents for not changing my gender when I went through my tomboy phase. I love this girly life.”
