Chely WRight

I heard her song on a "real" country station which, for this reason and others, isn't "real" enough for my taste. I wonder what this news will do to their playlist?
 
from what i understand the song is only being pushed to secondary markets but so far there hasn't been any major backlash on this......does it really matter anymore. country ain't country anymore....
 
chimp: You heard her new song, or "Single White Female"?

for those who don't know.. The "single White Female" came out of the closet as a lesbian.

I do know she ain't getting much airplay anymore on her hits, but wonder if those numbers will go down even harder in conservative America on her announcement?

Her sales are low enough where she took no risk coming out. If anything it helped her because it got her name out there. If her career was booming she wouldn't have discussed it.
 
Re: Chely Wright

So, apparently people in Nashville have known this about Chely for years? Is it what helped her get dumped so quickly by MCA after the big "Single White Female" hit? Or was it that the follow-up CD was just a bomb?

I just read her book and she acts as if it was a secret throughout town.
 
Obvious play for publicity, fits well with new album release going americana rather than country.

I couldn't care less who she likes to spend her time with, she lost me WAY before that with the fake calls trying to get that "bumper of my SUV" song played.
