Outspoken country star Maren Morris has fired back at Internet trolls who have taken issue with the way she dresses.

A few conservative fans were unhappy with a photo the My Church singer posted online ahead of a Madison Square Garden gig with Sam Hunt in New York last week (15Sep17), in which she was wearing a midriff-baring crop-top and a pair of pants with strategically placed slits.

But Morris wasn't about to apologise for her fashion choice and instead took aim at the "slut shamers"

Tweeting a photo of herself with fiance Ryan Hurd on Sunday (17Sep17), Maren wrote: "Hey, while prudes are b**ching about my clothes, let's make babies."

She jumped on Twitter a little later and added, "Honestly, I'm over the slut-shaming that goes on here. I'm a self-sufficient woman who loves her body. Get over it, thanks."

Fellow country star RaeLynn offered Morris words of encouragement, tweeting: "You're beautiful, everyone else is stupid."

The diabetic star went on to reveal someone had once criticised her health accessory: "I had someone judge my insulin pump," she explained. "People don't even understand."

Morris also received support from the Brothers Osborne, who tweeted: "This is why we should be required to take an a**-hole test before being allowed access to the internet. What is wrong with these people?"

Trolls and slut shamers aside, Maren's career is on a high - she recently recorded a duet with Niall Horan and will be hitting the road with the One Direction star when he launches his world tour next summer (18).
