But come on, she was against some women who have helped revive country music and have paved the way for gals like Carrie. For her to beat Sara Evans, Faith Hill and Martina McBride is sort of odd. I think Carrie Underwood is bland, boring and forgettable. Doesn't matter. What's odd about it? Hey, a winner is a winner, it shouldn't matter how long they've been around, or how established their fellow nominees are. That's like saying that Anna Paquin shouldn't have won Best Supporting Actress for The Piano because she was only 10. If she pulled out the best performance of all the nominees, then it's completely fair.

God, she's gotta be better than Martina "Listen To Me Try To Hock Up My Spleen" McBride. Also, what India said.

I hated "Jesus Take the Wheel" and I was actually a little worried that the song would start a trend in the Bible belt when people's cars were swerving they would put their hands in the air and say, "Jesus take the wheel."
Women are always rewarded for being "it" gals, and penalized for getting older. Men, on the other hand, are very rarely rewarded young - b/c industry execs want them to work for it, and they know that men are typically rewarded with long careers. Underwood beating out these veterans was just another example of women being expected to peak at, say, 22 and then disappear by 30.

The Sun's write-up of the CMAs (because they're such a big deal in the UK?), which is mostly an excuse to run photos of Carrie's legs and Eva Longoria, along with mentioning what Nicole's husband said about her in his letter from rehab.

I can totally see this happening and know people who would do that. Scary stuff.

*blink* *blink*Was that for real?? Yeah. She's got a baby and she's driving in a stownstorm and she hits black ice and is all like "save me, Jesus!" And then she stops spinning and she's at the shoulder and it's a miracle or something. It's a foul song. I want to reiterate that I know it because my friend won a drag contest with it (he went as Tammy Faye). Not because I like songs where Jesus has a Class 5 license.

I read "save me, Jesus" in the Little Richard voice (like in the Geico commercial). Actually the whole song would be better if interpreted by Little Richard.
