If you've seen one formula-made pop-music diva playing guitar in her underwear you've seen 'em all.

Here is an article detailing how the HSUS has benefitted greatly by people just like Ms. Underwood confusing the HSUS with locally run animal shelters and "humane societies".

I have been a wildlife-rehab volunteer at our (terminally underfunded) local shelter for a number of years. If I can make a suggestion, give Ms. Underwood the benefit of the doubt that she just hasn't done her homework and is confused just like a lot of other people over which organization does what. Meanwhile donate the money you would otherwise have spent on her CD to your local shelter. I'm sure she'll understand, and everybody wins.

60256,

Don't worry, she really isn't a country music singer anyway.

I would say that I have no problem with her expressing her points of view (like Dixie Chicks). I just hate it when their target market decides they don't like the performers point of view and stops buying their records and the performer starts whining. If they are going to exercise their freedom of speech they need to expect that the buying public is going to exercise their freedom to buy or not buy what they want to.

I'm glad this was brought to my attention. I didn't realize she is a big PETA supporter. I'll cross her off my list of music artists. No need for her to get my dollars so that she can push her extremist views.

Not a fan...Not with wayne pacelle as the president and CEO of the HSUS...pacelle is one of the most vehement and down-right nasty anti-hunters...Ms. Underwood would do well to figure out which side her bread is buttered on...maybe she should ask the dixie chicks for career advice...

She's just your typical blonde bimbo who can't sing but performed elsewhere to get where she got. Now she's just as ugly as PETA's president. Miranda Lambert ROCKS!!

I don't listen to or buy her product, but if i did, I'd boycott it. Very typical of today's celebrities. Few of them have a clue.

I will say that she is drop dead gorgeous. But that is besides the point. I respect her as a country singer and what she does with her money is her business even though I would of liked to see her donate somewhere else. I also think that if she donated to the NRA (or other hunting/gun group), it would of sparked more of a controversy than this. I also believe that she didn't know that the Human Society does more than shelter and rescue animals... atleast that is what I would like to think.

Never was. im more of a skynard, gram parsons kinda guy . but now i hate her. and shouldnt this money go to the trops or protectin our woods and not helpin a wonded racoon find his way home

I've never based liking a musical artist on anything other than their music. So she doesn't like hunting, etc......eh, I still like her music....and she's hot

so sad. i knew she was a vegetarian but i had no idea she was a PETA psyco. shes so hot though

Peter,
I suppose it's easy to dismiss efforts to "helpin a wounded raccoon find its way home", but how about the next time you shoot a goose (or an offspring of a goose) that was rehabbed by the Humane Society, or a rabbit, or a duck, or a deer, you give a little credit where its due. I suppose we can also then dismiss the efforts of the NWTF, Ducks Unlimited, Ruffed Grouse Society, etc since that money should have gone to "to the trops or protectin our woods". There are a lot of groups and people that contribute a heck of a lot of time and energy making your outdoors experience a better one.

Sorry, you touched a nerve.

YOU WANT A HOT BLONDE?
HOW ABOUT TIFFANY LAKOSKY?
AND SHE REALLY CAN HUNT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A good offense is better than a good defense.
We all need to see if we can convince Tiffany to come out with her own songs.
COME ON TIFFANY!
I'll not only buy your songs, I'll buy more as gifts.
You go girl. You know B,S.S.(Big Song Sung)

OrangeNeckinNY,
Read the blog before you talk and ridicule others. She was speaking on behalf of HSUS!

There are two sides to this story.

First, on the national level we have two organizations(The Humane Society vs The U.S. Sportsman Alliance)whom try to justify their jobs by going at each other in the national spotlight.

Locally, the Humane Society in my area is a wonderful organization staffed by both hunters and non hunters alike whom do not share the same views as the national organizations. I have a lot of respect for the local Humane Society and for the people that volunteer their time.

To put a story like this in perspective you have two organizations with two different philosophies with a huge over lapping grey area among the membership and for Mr. Story to speak so bluntly about Carrie Underwood on behalf of the entire organization is just plain ignorant.
