Jessica Simpson is getting no love from country music fans. Jess performed at Country Thunder in Randall (no, I have no earthly idea what a country thunder is) last Saturday. Her first time on a country stage was met with less than stellar reviews from the fans.
Jessica stepped on stage to a mixture of boos and cheers wearing a pair of short shorts, a white button down shirt and cowboy boots. Ever the creative artist, her first song was “These Boots Are Made For Walking”. After singing several country covers she belted out her new country single, “Come on Over”.
What did the die-hard country fans have to say about her performance? It ain’t pretty.
One fan said, “It’s crap. She doesn’t belong here.” While another insisted that she just isn’t cut out for country. “I just don’t hear the country in her. I don’t hear the twang. She’s not good enough to be here.“
While those are all valid opinions, my favorite of the bunch was this one.
“She doesn’t fit in with country, and I’ll have to drink a lot of beer to sit through her concert. She’s an embarrassment to country music,”
