exactly. I just can't get past the arrogance.
If she were a little less full of herself--- maybe I wouldn't be so hard on her. SHe just rubs me the wrong way too--- and it all started 2 years ago when she did a radio interview and live acoustic set on my radio station. This was before she met kellie pickler and was pretty "green" in her interview skills...so she showed more of her true colors. today-- she would never bash american idol and knows better....She intentionally praises carrie in interviews because she wants to win over carrie fans to buy her albums-- so she knows she has to kiss carrie's butt publicly anyway. who Anyway.She was bragging then, saying how she didn't go to american idol to take the fast route to fame-- but how she "worked hard paying dues knocking on doors" with her demo cd...(come to find out her rich daddy helped pay for her record deal). anyway-- she was bragging how she wrote all her own songs and played guitar-- whereas others just sing big power notes, etc....and that is all. Teh dj knew she was talking about carrie and put her in her place....saying that carrie plays guitar and piano and is a great artist, etc. Taylor did not know this-- and acted surprised. So she was clearly referring to carrie and did nto try to deny it. First impressions are usually right- and that was my first impression of her. Plus her live acoustic vocals were dreadful.
maybe someday I can learn to respect her if she stops bragging and realizes she is not all that- but I don't think I will ever like her vocals.
