Dixie Chicks' Natalie Maines Rips Country Music, Fans
The National Ledger ^ | 1-30-06 | CK Rairden

Posted on 01/30/2006 3:00:25 PM PST by Coastal

The Dixie Chicks were humming along as a darling country music trio until one night in March 2003 in London. Lead singer Natalie Maines slammed President George W. Bush at a concert and announced to the British crowd, "We're ashamed that the President of the United States is from Texas."

That didn't sit well with country music fans then, and now Maines says she's finished with the genre and is none too pleased with the fans, basically labeling them as redneck hicks.

hmmmm

the fat one is pissed that those who paid money to make her ass fatter than it was didn't like her bashing the President.

Maybe she's on a diet....


Do the other 2 know she's mouthing off again? I mean there's the one that never talks and then the other one (which would be the always pregnant one).....

From the picture in the referenced article, it does unfortunately look like Natalie's lost some weight - I just hope there are no country music fans left for them either way.

Man created musical instruments. God created the human voice and the best of the human voice is distinctive and can not be exactly duplicated by any instrument.

I appreciate the human voice and will respect the quality of the pleasing and best.

I really don't give a damn about their politics. That is the part I don't listen to.

This didn't look "airbrushed" to me (I don't know how to post pictures here, so here's the direct link):

That wasn't ever her problem.

Her problem was around her waist....

Some of the Dixie Chicks stuff is outstanding. Their recent stuff is pure garbage.

I don't buy their stuff and I would never support them.

There's no way an "airbrush" cleared that much fat off her face. Either way, I'm hoping music fans can see through this latest bait-and-switch as well.

but as far as the industry and everything that happened... I couldn't want to be farther away from that

And we couldn't want any more than we do for you to be far away from all of us. Have fun waiting tables and playing at the Austin Airport, Natalie.

She will eat her words. As a matter of fact, based on the size of her, she's been eating lots of her words and everything else.

Bausch & Lomb make contact lenses. Look into a pair.

I know her old man, Lloyd Maines.

He doesn't talk about this, so I presume he doesn't entirely approve, since he is a pretty sensible chap.

It came out in 2004m it was a greates hits live compilation. It has yet to sell a million copies. When they went on the VFC tour, they couldnt sell out 3000 seat venues.
