Super
Shania fans in Europe, this is your chance to sit down in front of your
TV, watching a special evening of Shania programs on VH1 UK! Here are the
details for September 14:
Shania's Friends in Nashville. Jimmy Carter, a well known veteran TV and radio personality from Nashville, has expressed clearly the disgust many Shania fans have with regards to the CMA's decision about the nominations this year: they just forgot about Shania.....but they seem to use her name a lot to attract audience to the awards show. "The snubbing of Shania: Again no nominations and if the CMA voters don’t think she has one of the top five shows of the year then fine. It’s their view. But, what a major hypocrisy, if in the same breath you announce she is the first performer invited to perform. The Music Row bosses and voters will use Shania to get a show rating but will not show her the respect of even a nomination. In the words of the Riders in the Sky, It’s not the cowboy way!"
