Latest Attack From Dixie Chicks' Lead Singer Hits Home
NBC5I.com ^ | Sept 20, 2006 | Staff

Posted on 09/20/2006 6:20:36 PM PDT by wouldntbprudent

[snip]

The lead singer spoke to the Vancouver Sun recently, saying, "but if you live in Lubbock, Texas, where I'm from -- you just have one paper and one radio station and unless you're savvy on the Internet, that's it for you. If Bush said get a gun and kill an Arab, they would do that."

It's a comment that isn't sitting well with some Lubbockites.

"I live in Charlotte. We have Charlottons."

They also have Charlottoons - this group overlaps the other one...

When I voted on the survey a minute ago:

yes 2397
no 901

Her daddy should have taken her @ss behind they barn on the first comment she made.

Let's see, how many people are laughing now/ Surely the girl the two sisters kicked out of the band to hire Big Fat Mouth Nat. Toby Keith. Reba McIntyre. All true Southerners. All country music fans..............

Since Tom recently hired new help and was promptly dispatched to Brooke Shields' home for a personal apology session, etc., you can bet his case study may---MAY---end up in the "How To Recover From Doo-Doo Hitting The Fan" chapter.

Plus, while the Vichy Chicks' music was well-liked, they were not personally a draw. Tom had built up enormous goodwill and likeability before whatever happened to him recently happened. Plus his popularity was truly worldwide and the coverage of his recent troubles will not be the same worldwide as it was here. Therefore, he has a better chance of recovering.

Plus Tom is cute and Nat is not.

But the bottom line is this: NO celebrity of any stripe can survive insulting their fans. It's worse than a politician insulting his base because the celebrity/fan relationship is primarily emotional and the politician/base relationship is primarily pragmatic.

Don't EVEN think about it! Though I kinda wonder ... if you put her up next to the mule statue downtown, could you tell the difference?

I got coffee at Starbucks on 82nd at Quaker this morning and they had the NY Slimes in there. No, I did not touch it! I got my coffee and headed out for the Metroplex.

They must still be making a lot of money or she wouldn't be shooting off her mouth. She's pushing her luck.

Lubbock has a musical history you can never tarnish. (Buddy Holly).

Don't forget Waylon Jennings. I know he was born and raised in Post (just down the road apiece, 'tother side of Slaton, for those of you unfamiliar with the High Plains). But Waylon had to come to Lubbock to play...

Like I said, I was disappointed "DOH" was not one of the poll choices.

I'm going to make myself one of those signs. I'm a Texan stuck in Virginia and Natalie is a complete publicity whore. Right up there with Cindy She-man.
