During an appearance on Andy Cohen’s show on October 1, Luke Bryan made divisive comments about Beyoncé’s CMA Awards snub, suggesting Beyoncé should “be country with us a little bit,” and “come to an award show and high five us.” His response was met with criticism by Beyoncé’s passionate fanbase, so Bryan took to X on Sunday (October 6) to clarify his remarks. “I feel in my heart I could not let media create a false narrative,” Bryan wrote after seeing a series of clickbait headlines that twisted his words around, while encouraging people to listen to the full interview. “You will hear my tone and intentions which were not negative. I respect Beyoncé and I love how loyal her fans are,” Bryan continued. “I spend a lot of time supporting other artists. I want everyone to win. Love yall.” (Variety)
