GRAMMY-winner Sheryl Crow has gotten a lot of ink for her anti-war stance in recent months, but the toothy rocker wasn't always such a pacifist. Crow wore a T-shirt reading "War Is Not the Answer" to the American Music Awards in January and sported another reading "I Don't Believe in Your War, Mr. Bush!" on "Good Morning America" in December. At the Grammys, Crow, who told the Associated Press that "I think war is based in greed, and there are huge karmic retributions that will follow," was decked out in a "No War" guitar strap and peace-sign necklace. Back in the mid-1990s, however, Crow was a real G.I. Jane when Bill Clinton sent U.S. troops to the Balkans. At the time, Crow traveled to the region with then-First Lady Hillary Clinton to show her support and joined a USO tour to entertain the troops, reports NewsMax.com. "Once over there I felt extremely patriotic," Crow told USA Today in April 1996. "I don't ever want to play for a regular audience again . . . [only troops] enduring real duress for the cause of peace." Crow, whom the Toronto Sun termed "Hillary Clinton['s] sidekick in Bosnia," went on to write a song called "Redemption Day" condemning America's apathy toward Bosnia. "It's apples and oranges," insists Crow's rep. "But whatever the cause, she'll always support U.S. military personnel."
Con: duplicitous
Pro: too stupid to cover duplicity
I totally agree.
She is also dumb as a rock.
I totally agree.
Well, she's "hot" until she opens her mouth to do anything other than sing.
Thank you SO MUCH, for saying that.
It's when you look at the lust for the Mariah Careys, the Meg Ryans and the Sheryls that you realise how far our standards have fallen. Compare today's bimbos, with their Botox and silicone, to the dream creatures of the 50s: Ava Gardner, or Susan Hayward. You don't know who to pity more, today's lusters, or the lustees (to stretch a noun!) Cheers, By.
