Sorry, but "mah truck got stole, mah dawg died, and mah boyfriend broke a nail" just doesn't have that country feeling.

They've never heard of K.D. Lange?
To: sarcasm
``I think it's ridiculous,'' he said. ``Don't they just want to hear really great songs?
Well, precisely. So why must you insist that I know who or what you're sleeping with? Go away, already. Am I a homophobe if I'm homo-fatigued?

What do you get when you play a country music song backwards?
* you get your girl back
* you get your truck back
* you get your dog back
What do you get when you play a gay country music song backwards?

Besides KD there are rumors about others.
I will point out that the club in Nashville that featured female country star impersonators closed fairly quickly. Not even the tourists wanted to see them.

Ty Herndon, for those who don't believe the "it was a drug problem" story.
To: sarcasm
Any gay "country" star will be mostly Pop not country. Any rumour of "homo" in any male artist will be shunned in Nashville. Ty Herndon's career tanked faster than the bullitt train when word got out about him.
What do you call a cowboy with a guitar, taking a bow with his pants down on stage? The opening act for Ty Herndon....

...he added, calling the country music industry ``homophobic.'' Yep, that'll win 'em over.

I repeat, a bit more succinctly:
Any gay "country" star will be mostly Pop not country. Any artist haunted by rumors of "homo" will be shunned in Nashville. Ty Herndon's career tanked faster than the bullet train when word got out about him. What do you call a cowboy with a guitar, taking a bow with his pants down on stage?
