CDAN – This A list female country singer was hired to shoot a video of her just talking. She was given the script ahead of time and had cue cards at the ready. She came in the morning after a concert in a nearby town and was put in hair and makeup. A room was especially decorated for her to shoot the video in. The building was cleared for only essential people and the camera started rolling. And rolling. And rolling. Because for all of her posturing and songs of “I am a strong, smart woman” our singer couldn’t even read her cue cards right. Also, “uh” is one of the main words in her vocabulary. The crew, ever the professionals, stuck it out waiting for her to get her few lines right. After a few hours, the director called it a day and said they have what they need and proceeds to try to edit those few lines into something passable. He had to use a lot more video of her singing then he thought he would but he made it work.

Faith Hill?
I really like this guess! I just saw a commercial with her in it for some good cause psa and they BARELY showed her at all, like maybe twice and she looked a little like she was having a hard time with the cue cards. She looked great but something in her face looked like she was struggling.
Carrie Underwood
I don’t think it is faith hill. On Monday night football she sings the intro and there is a speaking part at the end…She sounds decent.
Carrie Underwood or even Kelli Pickler. I think Pickler is considered A list country now. She seems stupid enough for this.
I would guess Kelly Pickler. When she was on American Idol she was beyond stupid.
i don’t know if it is her or not, but she is definitely stupid. when she was on ‘are you smarter than a 5th grader?’ she said that europe was a single country.
I was thinking Martina McBride, she sings about being all independent.
You know, this could be almost any country singer(or fan…). They are not too bright, save for Dolly Parton. What about that one trailer trash singer that sang “Redneck woman”?
That would be Gretchen Wilson, and I have never seen her in any interviews, but she strikes me as being sharp as a bag of wet hair. I like that guess.
My thoughts too!
exactly who came to mind. you would have to be half retarded to sing that song with a straight face.
Well, she did just graduate high school a few years ago……(She was a drop out)
Doesn’t Shania Twain have lots of songs about being a strong woman?
Yes. That’s who I was thinking.
Shania speaks very well. She doesn’t sound like a moron in interviews.
Jewel had a song called Stronger Woman
Just saw her on some CMT Cribs show and the bulb didn’t seem to be burning very bright…
seems like i’ve heard rumors that she was wasted all the time. but maybe they were wrong and she’s just dumb….or maybe the lady mentioned above had some much trouble b/c she was trashed.
taylor swift, she was on the gossip news shows filming a commercial for guitar hero
less than 5 minutes after I posted, I saw her in that commercial. They don’t really give her much to say. Face it, she can’t be bright. That pic from last week with her and the swasitca guy wasn’t a great idea.
She’s not dumb, she’s just young. I’ve seen her speak numerous times in interviews, and she’s fine. Not her.
she also writes all of her own songs, so I doubt she’s stupid. she does tons of interviews and speaks fine on all of them.
You don’t have to be smart (articulate) to write songs.
you do to write those songs.
‘you do to write those songs’ ^
Seriously? She writes about her ex bf and high school crap. Not too hard. I def wouldnt compare her to intelligent rock, like tool. I wouldnt compare her to any type of rock though.
Not hating, shes sweet seeming and very pretty. Just saying.
Hahahaha “intelligent rock like Tool” that made my day
my first idea also!See Kanye West moment,i never understand why she didn’t react!
Because she was in shock and only 19 years old? What would you have done at 19 and on national tv?
Totally Carrie Underwood. Dumber than a bag of hammers.
May be true, but the good ole boys need her because she sings right wing “politically correct” type of songs.
So she gets all those country awards, which are constantly forthcoming.
Don’t even bring politics in to this. There’s nothing wrong with Republicans, right New Jersey?
Tell that to the country singers, songwriters, producers and the disc jockeys who play their records.
They’d tell you to take a long walk on a short pier.
Politics, esp. right-wing is part and parcel of the country music community.
Go Christie!
maybe who ever it was is dyslexic… that would make it hard to read…
Good point. Just because someone can’t read a cue card doesn’t make them stupid. I bet if they gave the poor woman the words ahead of time, she could have memorized them. Some people’s strengths just don’t lie in the same places as others.
And let’s face it, no matter what bad choices celebs might make, none of them got where they are from being completely stupid.
Well, maybe Chris Brown…
agree with hee hee and stinkweed . . . and I’ll add, who cares?
“She was given the script ahead of time…”
Taylor Swift or Shania Twain
Shania Twain is a songwriter. Not stupid!
Taylor Swift is going to be performing and hosting SNL this Sat I think so I doubt its her. She wouldn’t be able to handle the hosting part and I just saw her 3 commercials for it and she seemed fine.
Kellie Pickler.
Is Kellie Pickler really considered A list? even for a country singer? She could be and I could see her for this blind. I remember when she was on american idol, she was so dumb. But it was a “cute dumb” if u get my drift. You hated her cause she acted stupid but you loved her cause she acted stupid.
As a VERY die hard country music fan, Kellie is not A list. She could be a solid B if you’re talking about only “young country”. If you’re talking about country on the whole, she’s probably a C.
I think if it was Kellie, they would be OK with her screwing up lines… that’s her thing! I think this is Carrie Underwood, sadly. She’s finally gotten some personality into her stage performance, but that girl is totally wooden otherwise. She probably isn’t dumb… just nervous.
Carrie Underwood.
I find this blind item beyond hilarious, yee-haw, USA! USA! It could be ANY of them (except Dolly, of course). Gretchen Wilson, or The Pickle.
what about jessica simpson
That was my first/best guess.
I’m from the town where most of the singers live. Pickler isn’t considered A-list. Underwood is sweet but she is intelligent. If it was her, it was just because she was nervous. Faith Hill and Martina McBride are very articulate IRL.
Don’t be tardy for the party…….
hahahahah!!
Sounds like Gretchen Wilson. She got her GED a few years ago, she admits to being a poor reader/speller.
Def. Pickler. Anyone see her on Ellen a few days ago? She’s not the brightest bulb in the box…
I’m a huge country music fan and trust me Pickler isn’t A List.
Word! So not A-list. She’s not terrible, but A-list country is Reba McEntire (yes, still), Faith Hill, Martina McBride, Carrie Underwood, Taylor Swift (getting there if she’s not already, she has a lot of crossover stuff that the industry isn’t too fond of). Pickler’s name does not belong on that list.
i hate to say it because i actually enjoy her music but i just saw a commercial for some “dish network exclusive” concert that carrie underwood is doing- and she didnt speak much! it kept flashing to her singing rather than explaining what was going to take place.
This is Carrie Underwood.. I never would have guessed her had I not watched her on Regis and Kelly today. Girl can’t handle an interview to save her life. She was awkward and spoke very little.
Carrie Underwood FTW!
Does anyone remember Miss South Carolina Teen USA’s answer when she made the final 5?
If I recall, the host had a hard time trying not to laugh.
Is it someone like her? Sort of the Dolly Parton counterpart?
Saw the Taylor Swift commercial and wondered…..but then she was on Sat Night Live and you can’t get thru that show if you don’t have your game on. Not her. Kellie Pickler. Doesn’t take much to become a big deal on the country music circuit.
