The Dixie Chicks were humming along as a darling country music trio until one night in March 2003 in London. Lead singer Natalie Maines slammed President George W. Bush at a concert and announced to the British crowd, "We're ashamed that the President of the United States is from Texas."
That didn't sit well with country music fans then, and now Maines says she's finished with the genre and is none too pleased with the fans, basically labeling them as redneck hicks.

No surprise. She bit the hand that was feeding her. Good lesson that she learned.

If Natalie gained 10 pounds every time she made a fool of herself...er...never mind.

They could always bring back the singer they ditched for Natalie, just before the Chicks hit the big time.

She really know how to hurl insults at country music fans. lol I think it's a compliment.
To: Ohioan from Florida
She clearly does not understand country music if she thinks calling those of us who listen to it "rednecks" is an insult.

In short, they didn't agree with her, so they must be morons. Can't possibly be that she is the one that's wrong, now can it?
