Female Vocalist of the Year? Well, thank you CMA’s for giving me the biggest laugh I’ve had in a long time. I can understand Video of the Year, and even Album, but I think she definitely got the pity vote for this one, because ANY one of the other ladies nominated in that category could outsing her any day of the week. Her opening performance was very clear evidence of this.

Sorry, she had like a 48 hour grace period of me feeling sorry for her because of the whole Kanye thing, now I’m back to disliking her. She just needs to hurry up and get both feet into the pop world already cause she isn’t country and I’m sick of seeing her on my tv screen.

Ria….Really??? It must have only been broadcast along the “Bible Belt” and into Toronto. If T.O. is a part of that “Bible Belt”, than so are thousands of club goers, professionals, artists, rock stars, actors, actresses, etc, etc. I say, way to go Taylor!! We appreciate humour (even though overdone) and talent here in Toronto, Canada!!

Eh, I think its okay the country folk got to have a little fun with the Kanye thing, it’s not their fault they had their awards show in November.

And I’m almost 24 and I love Taylor Swift. Yes, her songs are about high school love but sometimes it’s just fun to be taken back to that time. I’m sure her music will grow as she grows up as well.

I agree, she is not the most consistent with her voice but her voice can actually be quite beautiful depending on what song she is singing and on what day you get her. At least the girl has more talent in her pinkie than A LOT of the other entertainers out there. She plays the guitar and writes her own songs? WHAAAA??

And what’s up with people hating on her b/c of the way she looks and I also hear about people making fun of her eyes?? So weird, I think she is beautiful. These people making fun have A LOT of insecurities to be making fun of such a beautiful and talented girl.

I’m gonna go chris crocker on you…leave kanye alone!
yeah he deserved the humiliation for like a week or so after the event, he was being an ass….but he apologized and hasnt said, blogged, or really done anything since then. so the joke is old, stop bringing it up.

Okay well done to her. She is young and famous and made a lot of success being a so called country music star etc.. etc.. but c’mon.
Get over the Kanye stuff. It was wrong, but i like Kanye. He is a great musician, better than Taylor. I don’t like his personal life per say – but his music is great IMO.
—
He deserved the backlash for like a week and thats it. Bit pathetic that they’re still going on. Even Taylor is – she could just say, oi stop!
—
Anyway – also a bit stupid that she wins all these awards. She isn’t Country. Listen to real Country music in Texas. Even AUSTRALIAN Country music (which is different to American) sounds more American than Taylor. So she plays the guitar and sings with a weird accent (that to me, sounds WANNABE country) – doesn’t make you a Country Music Star.
—
I don’t hate Taylor though, her voice can drive me nuts sometimes. But for a Pop Musician, which i classify her as one, she’s done well. I can tolerate her much more than Miley thats for sure. She does deserve Entertainer of the Year but not so much for Country music considering she’s spent the last year on Mainstream radio, performing at the MTV Awards and every god damn TV Show.

I simply DO NOT get the appeal of this girl. Her voice sounds like nails on a chalk board to me.

Seems to me they’re just feeding his massive ego more, by even mentioning him.

The more I see her, the harder it gets to look at her. Something about her face reminds me of Carrot Top….

soooo quick question…is that the dress she wore on SNL when she sang her second song? or just similar?

Little Jimmy Dickins is an icon in the country music world. Regardless of how absurd the joke was and how “dated” it may come across – it was funny. HE is funny. I’m young, but I enjoy the little old guy’s humor. What’s wrong with poking fun at Kanye? At least that wasn’t the bulk of the SNL event …

@Ria – really? Yea the jokes are old but it was a good show. Hoodie won a CMA! so that was cool.

She seems like a nice enough girl but I still don’t get why she’s so popular. She can’t sing, her weird vendettas against her ex-boyfriends are so juvenile and petty and more importantly – none of her songs sound remotely country to me so it’s weird that she’s even classified in that genre. I feel like I’m missing something.

Not begrudging her any success but I just find it odd.

The Kanye jokes were funny, but old. It’s the fact that Taylor is currently the genres’ little darling and they were sticking up for her. She’s had an amazing year and quite possibly did deserve the entertainer of the year. Female VOCALIST? I’m sorry, but, uh, no. The girl is a really talented songwriter, but singing live is not her forte…at all. That said, she did have an amazing night.

@ CHASE- Her hair is naturally curly and I have to say I like the fact that she doesn’t straighten it smooth or chop it all off and wear extensions.

Anyways, It’s a bit ridiculous that people don’t like that she won entertainer of the year. She sold more albums, had sell out concerts, and crossed over on to the pop charts. She also won an award from the VMA’s which is a show from the channel that isn’t even close to country.

CHASE — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 19:19:08 +0000

I like Taylor but she dresses like an old woman! I can’t stand her hair. I mean, she’s only 19 but she dresses like a grandma most of the time. Anyways, I’m starting to think that Taylor is a little bit apparent when she knows when she’s going to win something. It’s sort of annoying. I like her but she kind of annoyed me last night even though I found her cute.

I think the idea that “cowboys have manners” is a bit absurd. You already have Wynonna Judd saying that Taylor should not have won her awards. You had LeAnne Rhimes saying that about Carrie Underwood a couple of years ago. I don’t like the idea that the Kayne thing is being turned into a culture war. The country music industry is just as catty and rude as the MTV crowd.

@Nicola It seems to me like T. Swift probably has a pretty good idea of what she is singing about most of the time, since she wrote or co-wrote all of her songs. And what’s more real than selling more albums this year than any living artist in any genre? The only one to sell more records than Taylor is Michael Jackson.

@Ria – this “show” was broadcast on ABC actually. Thanks for coming out though!

@cherr – I totally agree. I think every opportunity should be taken to remind Kanye West that he’s the biggest asshole in music.

they really need to let it go. how immature could they be? i mean most country artist are older then say..the MTV crowd…so maybe its my fault for expecting a little more maturity from them.

PSH. I, personally, LOVE that they took as many cuts at Kanye as possible. i thought the whole thing was hilarious. If you can’t take the heat Kanye, stop being such an egotistical bastard.
Just sayin.

Ooh yeah, Kanye was a jerk to her so that means people have to fawn over her all the more.
Since when was Taylor Swift actually good? I personally can’t stand her annoying teenage songs. Give me something real anyday. I highly doubt she even knows what she is singing about half the time.
