I love me some Kelly Clarkson. Ironically, two American Idols are in my top five favorite artists! Yes, I admit I'm in love with Carrie Underwood. Anyhoo...Nick and Shaggy were giving me a pretty hard time for sticking up for Clarkson and the controversy over her new album "My December" that comes out June 26th. I heard from Dionne on the topic yesterday...
Hi Tricia,
Thanks a bunch for defending Kelly Clarkson today.* I can't believe Shaggy and Nick were dissing her so bad.* Her music is great!* Her new song is so her nevermind it isn't the best she has done.* I swear men don't appreciate good music.* I listened to some of her new cd on aol.com* and it was fantastic.*I* really hope she pulls this off. Her label just doesn't want to give her the money and rights that come with being songwriter!* She has a huge fan base and that's coming from me a 26 year old black female...lol* I am with you all the way on this one.* I'll buy three if I have to!* Can you play song on air?* How come you guys don't play the other stuff like way back in the days?* Anywho...
Dionne
Here’s what I replied…
What's up Dionne! You make me happy! I don't mind being alone on some things on the air with Nick and Shag - I often am alone in my opinion. However, you are a doll!! You really are a fan - that's awesome. I really do love Kelly's stuff. I can't wait to run out and get her new album! Sometimes I'll wait around to see if we can get it for free here (one of the lame perks of working at a radio station with a small paycheck - ha ha! free CDs and DVDs!) but I'm not waiting - I have to go get it on the 26th. You know all this "negative publicity" about her album My December has only hyped it up even more for her. I bet there are some people who wouldn't have normally bought a Clarkson album that will because everyone says it's gonna suck so bad! YAY for Kelly!
Thanks Dionne!!
Two more things before I go…
--I am still looking for daycare for Noel…advice to you if you’re pregnant right now?? Put your fetus on a waiting list for goodness sakes! Even though Sexy Jim and I thought we were going to be okay doing the “tag team daycare” we have run out of time with that and now we’re stuck hearing “there’s a six-month waiting list ma’am”. Sheesh!! More updates coming soon…
--If there is someone in your life that hasn’t heard ‘I love you’ or ‘you’re important to me’ or ‘you are a wonderful person’ lately, then tell them. Today! Personal situation. Sad stuff. I love you, M!!
