"American Idol contestant Brittany Kerr has apologized for engaging in a &amp;quot;lapse in judgment&amp;quot; with married country singer Jason Aldean. The pair were photographed embracing at an LA club over the weekend, leading Aldean to publicly apologize to his family for the incident.  &amp;quot;The truth is that I screwed up. I had too much to drink, let the party get out of hand and acted inappropriately at a bar,&amp;quot; Aldean wrote in an open letter. &amp;quot;I left alone, caught the bus to our next show and that&amp;#039;s the end of the story.&amp;quot; Kerr has now offered her own public apology to Aldean&amp;#039;s family in a statement obtained by TMZ. &amp;quot;The actions I portrayed recently were not a representation of my true character, but a lapse in judgment on my part,&amp;quot; Kerr insisted. She went on to say: &amp;quot;I would like to sincerely apologize to everyone that has been affected by this, including my friends &amp;amp; family.&amp;quot; Aldean has been married for more than a decade to high school girlfriend Jessica Ussery. The couple have two daughters. Kerr starred in American Idol&amp;#039;s 11th season and has gone on to cheerlead for the NBA&amp;#039;s Charlotte Bobcats. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
