It's not like Carrie is a professional expert actress... she's just a stellar singer, which is why she was chosen. If people can't stop judging her and just enjoy it, then they can shove it!!!

Actually, a lot of the tweets I'm seeing are pretty good. Sure, there are the ones comparing the show to the original, but overall not bad. It was worse here as far as unusually bad hating. Well, I think she'll expand her fan base and the Brits got a nice surprise on Easter Sunday.

Carrie made it to the final three for Billboard's Milestone award, along with Ellie Goulding and One Republic. They beat out other top six finalists Imagine Dragons, John Legend and Luke Bryan. Voting will continue until the night of the show here: www.billboard.com/milestone |

Did they update her fan club site? Just the discussion board portion of the website. Got a slightly new look and some type of software update it seems. |

Wow! Kind of surprised she made the Top 3 finalists for the Milestone award, but definitely happy nonetheless. I'd like to think Ellie isn't a threat, but I could see OneRepublic edging her out in the votes. Will be interesting to see who takes it. In other news, I'm surprised Carrie Underwood is losing this poll right now: pulsemusic.proboards.com/thread/139516/final-easton-corbin-carrie-underwood |

I am surprised not to see Luke Bryan, though. Whatever the case, I have a hard time seeing anyone other than Carrie win this. |

"So Small" and "Undo It" will both be covered on Idol tonight.
ETA: I forgot just how much "Cowboy Casanova" (and its video) kicks ass.

I knew she had more fans here than Easton does so I was guessing everybody just missed it, lol. |

Brad's comment about his daughter in relation to Carrie made me emotional.
I didn't get Harry's comment last night in saying Carrie has "ornaments" on "So Small." I don't think she did many runs or anything on that song, certainly not to where you can't hear the melody.

Harry's comment was so vague and convoluted that he actually confused himself in the process to the point of speechlessness. I got a chuckle out of it. Love Harry. |

I don't think she did many runs or anything on that song, certainly not to where you can't hear the melody. I think he caught himself before potentially shading Carrie and/or her style of writing and singing... So he quickly ended his comment before it was clear what he meant. He's notoriously an avid non-supporter of riffs and high notes and that's kinda Carrie's thing... So I think he caught himself before making it obvious that he's not really a fan of Carrie. I don't know for sure, but that was my interpretation. Nevertheless, Jena took a beautiful lyric and melody and strangled it to death... I didn't like it at all. |

Well he was saying that Carrie already toyed with the melody, so then Jena toying with an already toyed melody made it worse. I understood what he was saying, I just disagree; I don't see where Carrie toyed with the melody much on "So Small" at all. |

What other two females are performing? Any word on what she'll be performing? Or big names that are attending the Time mag gala. |

Any word on what she'll be performing? Or big names that are attending the Time mag gala. it's my understanding, based on the article and Time's tweet about Carrie headlining the event, that just Carrie and Pharrell will perform.No idea what she'll sing. |

Awesome news- what an honour given to a only few elite artists ! I am so happy when people in the industry recognize her talent and importance in music and pop culture, in general.

Impressive: one of the 100 most influential people in the world from TIME mag AND one of the 50 most beautiful people in the world on PEOPLE mag (again) on the same day... now, all we need is to do now is secure her the Billboard Milestone Award!!!

What a career, she's coming up on ten years in the game, right? I see a greatest hits collection immediately following the forthcoming era. Only problem is she has too many hits.
