Country singer Jason Aldean is so very sorry. The musician issued a public apology Sunday via his Facebook page, apologizing for his actions after photos of him cozying up to a woman -- "American Idol" season 11 hopeful Brittany Kerr, and not his wife, Jessica Ussery -- hit the Internet.

"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," Aldean, 35, wrote of his indiscretion at The Den bar on Wednesday. "I left alone, caught the bus to our next show and that's the end of the story." (TMZ first broke news of Aldean's PDA with Kerr, posting a series of incriminating photos of the pair kissing on their web site early Sunday.)

"I ultimately ended up embarrassing my family and myself. I'm not perfect, and I'm sorry for disappointing you guys," the "Take a Little Ride" crooner continued. "I really appreciate being able to work through this privately with my family and for all your continued support."

Aldean married Ussery, his high school sweetheart, in 2001. They have two daughters, Keeley, 9, and Kendyl, 5.
