I've been thinking about mentioning this on the forums for a while now. I created a user account just to say this, but I think it needs to be said because I don't hear it said enough.

Carrie is a beautiful person on many levels. Not only is she a VERY talented singer, she's also a genuine, wholesome person. The world needs more celebrities like her. She's a great role model for us. All too often do we hear the media bashing celebrities for their bad behavior but rarely do we hear them go out of their way to say something nice about someone. The media just likes trainwrecks - they make for better stories.

I'm not writing this to give my approval to Carrie. My approval doesn't really matter, but I wanted to be sure to say it in case it doesn't get said enough. You're a very classy, beautiful girl with an amazing voice. Keep on doing what you're doing, you're doing a fine job.

P.S. Looking forward to seeing her perform at CountryJam in Wisconsin this summer!
