Maren Morris On Her Biggest Career Obstacle

Maren Morris is experiencing success as some might describe it the hard way. The singer and songwriter never wavered when it came to her music, her image or her attitude, and she admits that has put some people off.

In fact, Maren says that her while her approach to her career is a positive step forward, she has sometimes been misrepresented or misunderstood, and that has been the biggest obstacle of her career thus far.

“I think ego is a big one that I’ve learned, like sometimes I think I say things and it comes across as like super assertive, and I’m really not trying to be that way. I really am a very shy person, but I think like the biggest obstacle is just being misinterpreted when I’m just trying to like be myself and hopefully give girls and guys some hope that they don’t have to change and they don’t have to water themselves down to be an artist. Like, I think people are really refreshed by honesty, and so I think that obstacle of knowing where the line is, but also like not watering yourself down.”

Maren sits at Number 11 with “Rich,” the latest single from her debut album, Hero.

Maren has wrapped up her tour for the year except for a few random dates late next month. She and her husband, fellow artist Ryan Hurd, jetted off for a destination unknown. Maren shared a picture of the two, along with their dog, June, on a private plane.
