Up until about two years ago, I listened to country music all the time. Then it went and got what I like to call Sarah Palinized. Every single damn song is about how life is dandy in Real Amurrica. There's even one out about "Rocking the Beer Gut." It's so much worse than when the country of the 90s-early 00s that was pop influenced. Now you can't sing about anything but a perfect church-going heterosexual married couple with children who are happy all the time. And there's this whole sub-genre of songs about kids who say things that are intelligent beyond their years. BARF. I miss the days when country reflected what life is actually like. Nowadays even a song like Martina McBride's Fourth of July probably wouldn't be released b/c it reflected poorly on heterosexual marriage. And god forbid anyone sing something like Sunday Morning Coming Down. Country music: you and I are done. #cmas
@Dictator for Life: Yup. It's been icky for a long time. I love Lyle Lovett, Johnny Cash, and Dwight Yoakum, but this new stuff is just dreck. Pseudo patriotic, GOP cum guzzlin' dreck. #cmas
What is it with transforming American Idol contestants into people who no longer resemble themselves? Katharine McPhee and Kellie Pickler are unrecognizable.
What's up with Nicole and the boobage? I saw a pic from another angle and it looked.... well, I'll try and post the pic and y'all can see for yourselves.
I keep on staring at Patricia Heaton's décolletage, and then at her legs, and I can't decide whether she should have had both made up and sheened to swelling perfection, or neither. I'm reminded of what my therapist says when I forget to wear trousers: only cowards do things by halves. #cmas
Where are the fringes? the appliques? The bubble sleeves? I blame the hegemonic core of hollywood ladies being into country men and inserting blah hollywood style. I also blame the crossovers (I'm talking to you, Swift). #cmas
I feel like that last thing LeAnn Rimes needs to be doing right now is modeling bridal fashions. Shouldn't she be going the Abbie Cornish route and appearing nunlike to post-scandal red carpets??
Martina McBride looks like she's wearing a few Target tree skirts bound together with the bodice from a Forever 21 prom dress. Course she's lovely enough to just wear the Christmas tree and look great, but still.
And why do I feel like Taylor Swift is not-so-subtly campaigning for a Disney princess musical? NOTHING PLEASES ME TODAY. #cmas
@fluxus flucker: I was watching last night and thought that her makeup made her look like something out of a zombie movie. It was really strange. #cmas
@fluxus flucker: i'm glad i wasn't the only one who noticed. i think the makeup artist was going for smoky eyes and she ended up looking like she had two nasty shiners. #cmas
@kate!: Right? I want to pick him up and waltz with him and make him giggle. He looks like a blast. He also looks like he'd be the type to take his pants off at the after-party. My kinda guy. #cmas

Nicole Kidman now looks like her own Madame Tussaud's statue. Pretty dress, though. #cmas

But, hooray for Nicole's return to red hair! #cmas

Reba, Jennifer Nettles (love her voice), and Taylor Swift are the winners IMO. I would like each of their dresses delivered to my home ASAP.
I also love Nicole's dress, but suspect that I hate the shoes. #cmas
