7. Jason Aldean's Stupid Version of Cheating
The Internets had wholesome country music fans in a tizzy after a picture of Aldean kissing American Idol contestant Brittany Kerr surfaced in October 2012. Aldean, who has been married for 11 years, is either a complete douche or completely stupid; the bar he was creepin' at is an uber-crowded tourist hot spot full of celebs, and they were on the darned patio.

Aldean and Kerr were photographed at The Den in Hollywood, hugging, flirting, and kissing right in plain view. What did they expect?

These simpletons, I swear. At least take it to a dark booth like the experts do on Cheaters. That always works out well.


6. When Leann Rimes Proved She Can't Keep It In Her Pants
I'm hesitant to even write about this horse and pony show, but let's be fair here -- Rimes' affair with Eddie Cibrian and the never-ending story in the press is perhaps one of the douchebaggiest situations in recent country-music history.

Here's the Readers Digest version of this hot mess if you aren't familiar, kiddos. Rimes and Cibrian were both married to other people when they began their affair while filming the little gem known as Northern Lights. They both ended up leaving their spouses to take their hookup long-term, and it stirred up a shitload of drama that I have no interest in regurgitating. The Google is your friend if you'd like to learn more.

Despite it being years since these indiscretions, neither Rimes nor Cibrian's ex-wife Brandi Glanville is capable of shutting his or her trap to the press, which has led to a complete saturation of nonsense in the media. No one needs to hear about Rimes' boob job or her jaunt in "exhaustion rehab," but thank you for the offer.

Every time I have to hear Lee Greenwood sing "God Bless the USA" is immediately the douchiest moment in country music history.

Anse, I so agree with you. I used to work for a couple that were in the Amway business, (don't judge me.)  Anyhow, that song got played in a few of the functions I worked at.

Faith Hill's WHAT?! video was the best thing ever. I was surprised Carried Underwood made the cut. I wonder what she would have to say if it were a turkey burger haaaa. Also, somehow I feel less clean despite this list being full of douches.

Eh, not a big fan of country, but if the douchiest thing we can come up with is running over a turtle, that's not too bad, I don't reckon.  It beats, oh, I dunno, a golden shower sex tape with an underage girl.

@eudemonist a PROTECTED one. But, Blake Shelton is just way douchey anyway. Even if it was a joke, he can't pull it off and it was really stupid and he handled it like a total tool.

@dermgerm Swerving to smash _any_ animal is pretty lame, but if the guy can tell an Eastern Box Turtle from an Ornate Box Turtle at seventy miles per hour, he's more in tune with nature than I.

@eudemonist @dermgerm touché, he bests me as a naturalist too.
