Ugh. Why so little love for WA and Oregon? I sooo want to see this tour. And I can't go to Idaho, cause that's my week of finals. So sad. Oh well. Hopefully, we'll have plenty of media.
And I wonder what this will mean for her new album.

I LOVE the cut and color of her hair. It's nice to see her looking so happy.

sbp, do Kelly and Reba have a chance of winning their category at the ACM's? How do they calculate the winners? Is it chart success? If so, how did Because of You do compared to the other nominee's?

Focus, here is one critic's analysis of this year's awards in the Cleveland Plain Dealer newspaper (they are predicting a Kelly/Reba win :) ):

Hey focus. This is going to get long but I want to give you my full perspective. Quite frankly, I am shocked that this song hasn't won to date. It's been beat out by Tracy Lawrence and friends, Willie Nelson, and LeAnn Rimes/Bon Jovi in the award shows thus far. I hoped it would have pulled at least one of these out. I believe this is it's last shot so I'm really pulling for it. It was probably a little too new when voting ended for the CMAs. The Grammys (particularly the country awards) tend to be very traditional. And the CMT awards are fan-voted and suspect (due to major campaigning from some artist fan clubs). In the recent past, the ACMs have been far more favorable to Reba than most other country and non-country award shows. The ACMs have awarded her more than any other awards show. They also tend to be more commercial and pop than the CMAs. So if I were to predict a year ago which award it had the greatest possibility of winning, I would have said the ACMs. I will caveat it by saying that I'm a bit surprised Reba wasn't nominated for Female Vocalist at the ACMs but she was at the CMAs. On the surface, that seems a bit backwards than what it usually is. However, her second single with Justin didn't perform well and her album sales started dipping over time so that probably explains it. So, here's my take. The nominees are: Reba/Kelly Tracy Lawrence/Kenny Chesney/Tim McGraw Kenny Chesney/George Strait LeAnn Rimes/Bon Jovi Vince Gill/Sheryl Crow I think we can immediately rule out Vince. I feel fairly certain that we can rule out LeAnn as well. No fan club campaigns can help here. Tracy Lawrence will not get the Chesney help that he did at the CMAs because Chesney is nominated with Strait. So I think it could come down to BOY and Shiftwork. Two country artists would also have an advantage over a country/pop duet because these awards are voted on by the country industry. Kenny and George are extremely popular in country music. In fact, both are nominated for Entertainer and Male Vocalist. However, the song is crap and most of even the most objective fans have admitted it. Since Kenny and George are nominated in other categories, voters who like to spread the love may give that to Reba/Kelly. Plus, Reba/Kelly performed it at the ACMs last year. So, in summary, Reba/Kelly probably have their best shot here. It didn't make it to number one like two of the other songs did but it probably had more buzz. And I think it is generally viewed as being of better quality than Shiftwork. However, the prominence of George and Kenny in country music right now makes me think they may have the slight edge though it certainly wouldn't be shocking or any kind of upset if Reba/Kelly won.

LMAO @ Kelly carrying on with her conversation with her buddies while trying to escape into the car. BTW- is that the pink Ford Mustang that she gave to one of her friends ?

Focus, please don't take this the wrong way. I'm genuinely curious since I don't usually see a lot of Kelly candids unless they're posted here. When Kelly is dating a guy, is she ever seen out and about with him? I can't recall ever seeing Kelly with a date, but again, my exposure to such things has been limited.

I've seen pictures of Kelly out and about with both of the guys that we know she's dated.

"Once you get to sing with the Number One American Idol, watching it on TV is just not the same," she said. WORD!!! Kelly is the absolute best former AI contestant, period. The talent level has slowly diminished since season 1. No winner of AI has gone on to a big successful recording career since Carrie Underwood, and no non-winner has done so since Chris Daughtry. The show has become stale, bloated, and too personality driven instead of talent driven.

Aww, that is the best thing ever! Reba sure does love/defend Kelly to the highest degree! Glad to know Kelly has people in her corner that are in the industry!!!
Cute pics of her at Koi! Again, shows how down to earth she is, there she is in LA, no makeup, or barely any, natural hair style and casual clothes!! Girl really isn't into all that celebrity crap, is she????? LOVE HER
