Is her last name "Clampett"? LOL

I loved granny Clampett! She was the coolest!

[texasflower]

I'm still almost speechless about that. When I saw you tagline I was surprised enough, but to read what happened is just surreal.

You are definitely a rebel to put all that information on your homepage and in your tagline!

You're my hero!

That David Hasselhoff video was disturbing. It reallly scared me....

Bo's granny was cheering for Carrie tonight as she was singing her song after she won. Bo's whole family was clapping and cheering for her in fact.

But granny was waving her arms and having a great time. They seem like a nice family.

Speaking of reality shows ... I had no clue until today that there are entire web sites that consist of casting calls for these reality shows. And there are a LOT of reality shows now! For anyone who's interested, here's one that has lots and lots of different auditions listed: Reality TV Casting Call

America has a love affair with Carrie. They want their daughters to look up to her. They want the best for her and they want to see her happy. They are emotionally invested in this girl.

You know, that's absolutely right. That's one thing this show does for these kids. We learn to love them, and singers trying to break through in more traditional ways don't get that sort of attention from the country. That's a big thing.

You know how I feel about Carrie and Anthony. I'm sure that would be a huge deal for the entire country to watch a love affair between them and see that grow along with their careers.

[texasflower]

It sounds like you have lots of great memories. I'm not a singer or a dancer, even when I'm home by myself. :-)

But I'm fascinated with the talent of others!

[texasflower]

As I commented to you just a second ago, I'm fascinated with other people's talents. I didn't know Jennifer Grey was doing that dance wrong.

But I do love that sexy Latin dance stuff. I agree with you about Vanessa Williams. She definitely can dance!

[texasflower]

May I ask what kind of work you do? You certainly have a creative streak in you.

[texasflower]

That's another sweet picture of them. He was right there beside her pointing to her and cheering. The others sort of moved to let Anthony take his natural place beside her.

It was clear that this relationship did not just start a couple of weeks ago.

[texasflower]

I loved Carrie singing with Rascal Flatts also. Somehow, I don't think that's the last time she'll sing with them.

I really like Rascall Flatts.

[texasflower]

I think Carrie and Anthony make an adorable couple. I'm fascinated with it for some reason. :-)

[texasflower]

LOL! You are cracking me up with this talking to yourself thing.

[texasflower]

I know what you mean about Jessica. She looked even more like a slut tonight than usual.

It appears that "rocker slut" is her personal style. I think that's why no one could really warm up to her even though she has a nice voice. She just looks cold and slutty.

[texasflower]

No one is even helping me....I am getting tired....

and drunk

and now I am just bored.

ROFLMAO!

[texasflower]

Interesting insights.

[texasflower]

I know you wanted Bo to win, but as usual you are graceful and sweet. :-)

I am happy for Carrie tonight!! I voted for Bo last night...

Double ditto....I think this turned out best for both of them, don't you?

If Bo had won, the unforgiving half of America would be hating him with relentless bashing.
Now he's free to perform for his true blue fans, who will keep him buoyed.

How can anyone dis him after his generous
performances tonight?
Every gesture of his was selfless and outward, either toward the audience, the band, his family or his fellow contestants.

It was more than practiced showmanship.
He loved every moment.

When Carrie won, it was the first time we've seen her
turn truly outward. She seemed genuinely grateful, and it was beautiful.

[texasflower]

Very nice comments Hetty. You're right Carrie sang her heart out tonight.

I also agree with you about Bo and Carrie's familes. They both will have all the support they need.

[texasflower]

Thanks for that link. My daughter has a friend who is the perfect sort of person for reality shows.

She's cute, funny and WAY out there. I'll see if I can get her to try out for something.
