Country superstar Tim McGraw is making news for the wrong reasons.
In a video obtained by TMZ, the singer and husband of Faith Hill appears to slap a female fan who looks like she's making a grab for his privates during a concert on Sunday at Aaron's Amphitheatre at Lakewood in Atlanta.
However, McGraw's rep sent a statement to E! denying that he intentionally struck the woman in the face:
"At the end of the night during the encore, Tim was singing out in the audience and someone firmly grabbed onto his leg and wouldn't let go as he was moving through the crowd. He instinctively swatted to try and keep them from ripping his jeans (which they succeeded at doing!), and so he could get to more fans who were trying to slap hands with him before the end of the show. He didn't know who had grabbed him and was simply trying to keep his jeans from being torn."
