I am curious: why didn't Kelly's team submit "All I Ever Wanted" as a pop female vocal performance for the Grammys? I looked for Kelly's name on the list in that category, but didn't find it. Isn't AIEW eligible? I love that song. Maybe it wouldn't have won, but it might have been nominated at least. The label has to do that, right? There was probably a $15 entry fee or something.

Squintgirl from the KCE was at the George Strait/Reba/Leanne Womack concert in Buffalo on Sat. She just posted this...
RileyL and I were in Lee Ann Womack's dressing room interviewing her and she was asking Riley what site he worked on and he told her and then she looked at me and I was like I work on a Kelly Clarkson website.
Her eyes went big and was like Lee Ann: "OMG I love that woman! I want to tackle her and put her in my pocket and carry her around with me ALLLL the time! I Love her!" Me:I've met her a few times Lee ann: Aw man she is too cute Me: I run a charity for her every year on that website Lee Ann: You do? Which one? Me: March of Dimes Lee Ann: OMG that is sooo good. Yea, I love her.
Coffee table photography book entitled: My Country: 50 Musicians on God, America & The Songs They Love by Melanie Dunea Reba's in it and here are her answers to the questions posed:
Describe your ultimate musical performance. Anywhere in America with my band.
Have you ever heard a song you wish that you had written? Yes: "The Weekend," "I Saw God Today," "I Hope You Dance," "Because Of You," "He Stopped Loving Her Today" -- just to name a few.
Was there a moment when you knew you had to be a country musician? No, but I always loved to sing. It's also where I got the most attention...the good kind, I mean.
Do you have any special thing you do before you perform? I warm up my voice with my vocal exercises, pinky up with my band and crew, and eagerly get on stage.
If you weren't a singer, what would you have been? I would have wanted to be in some part of the entertainment business -- actor, writer, director...
If you could thank God in person for one thing, what would it be? For loving me.
What makes country music the heart and soul of America? It's music that you can relate to. Any song I sing, there is someone out there who thinks that song was written just for them.
Reba's Playlist "I'm A Survivor" "The Star-Spangled Banner" "Jesus Loves Me" "O Holy Night" "America the Beautiful"

A little late buuut here's my 5.
- The Day We Fell Apart - Already Gone - I Want You - My Life Would Suck Without You (which I think is cool since I find the song to be rather generic) - Long Shot

Cheap sometimes? Is that ever an understatement. They're so cheap they haven't certified anything for Kelly in 3 years. Completely ridiculous.

I love the beginning of DBAGAI but the rest is too repetitive. My favorites are still DEGUOM, YCW, ICL, and Call Me.

Is RCA notoriously cheap and bad about submitting things for certifications or is this kind of just for Kelly? Makes me wonder if this is how they punish those who do not follow their orders exactly...

Makes me wonder if this is how they punish those who do not follow their orders exactly... I don't know if it's just Kelly, probably not, but I checked and Ke$ha has 15 certifications since Sept. 2010. I know Kings of Leon have had very recent certifications, as had Adam Lambert. I have no idea why they won't certify Kelly's stuff. you can check here if you're interested in checking it out... www.riaa.com/goldandplatinumdata.php?table=SEARCH

Makes me wonder if this is how they punish those who do not follow their orders exactly... It doesn't matter what they do, in my opinion. We all know she has had some hits in the past 3 years. I don't think anyone needs RCA to tell them that. If RCA is punishing Kelly, then it's quite stupid. She's still making them money, and is recording songs that they want her to sing. *sigh* I just hope that she gets treated with the respect that she deserves on another record label after the next two records, since she is a true artist. My December was far from a flop, and really it's RCA's fault for not pushing more than one single. It probably could have sold more than it did if RCA had backed it.

I guess it doesn't really matter, but it's a great promotional tool, especially with a new album coming out soon'ish. If they had certified everything that should be certified they could use those certifications when promoting the new album. Now they can't say that AIEW is a certified platinum album (since they have surely shipped 1,000,000 copies as it has sold 900,000 already). They can't say she had 3 platinum and multi-platinum singles from her last album. The more platinum stat's the better when promoting a new album.

Someone on spillitnow.com posted this about the duet with Jason Aldean:
It's really good and they'll be performing it at this year's CMA's in a couple weeks. The song is a bit high for her, but overall a beautiful song. I can't wait to get my hands on it, so I can listen on repeat! Someone else asked if it is confirmed and since when and this is what that person said:
It's the word from his management team.
