My life without her music in it shall continue unabated.
Mine too. Although I think we’re both being quite generous in our use of ‘music’ in her case.
“Comes out” is the wrong phrase here, having been used for so long to talk about historically repressed people, especially LGBTQ+, having the courage to live openly and honestly in spite of the injustice they may face.
You don’t “come out” as a bigot. You don’t “come out” as a fascist.
How about:
“Carrie Underwood goes Mask-Off as MAGA With Trump Inauguration Gig”
Or Hood-Off, as in Klansmen
Would “outs herself” be any better? I feel like we’re splitting hairs.
Maybe she meant cum out?
I’m shocked (shocked!) that a country singer would stick with the fanbase that got her to where she is
A country singer? Pandering to her audience?
Maaaaannnn, all these people in here are clowning on her for her shitty music. But “Before He Cheats” was my way to own my “Drunk Basic White Lady” status at Karaoke. Now I can’t even be a stereotype anymore.
Jokes aside, fuck you Carrie Underwood. I was a fan in my youth and grew out of your music, but there was still two or three songs I got good nostalgia vibes from. Not anymore!
Ugh I hate when people I’ve supported turns out to be monsters.
I feel the same about Neil Gaiman ending up being a predator
Oof yeah. I’m so sorry about that.
I was never a Neil Gaiman girlie, not because of any vibes or anything, I was just reading other shit in my youth. But it was VERY clear from that thread that he was a very beloved author who touched a lot of lives. A LOT of people seem heartbroken about that.
Finding out those we look up to are awful incarnate is the worst feeling.
There’s always Stevie Knicks.
You know what? I actually just saw her perform over the summer and she is still Queen status.
Better artist anyhow. You right!
She only cares if people cheat on her personally. Voting for a cheater, totally okay.
Maybe soon she’ll come out as an artist, and yet we wait.
Who?
Looking at the thumbnail, I think she’s one of the Thunderbirds
Always knew she fucking sucked. Not a surprise.
You know, I always preferred Faith Hill’s version of the Sunday Night Football theme song. Now, I prefer it even more.
The rest of the world be like “who?”
Honestly, while I’ve heard her name, I had to google to find out what her songs were. I still don’t think I’ve heard any of them. Half of them appear to be worship songs.
who has remained mum on her politics
What does “remained mum” mean?
remained private
Oh right - we’d normally say “kept schtum”.
I was trying to work out what about her being a mum meant about her politics!
You might also see or hear “mum’s the word” as a way to tell those other than yourself to keep quiet, but that’s a bit archaic these days.
Wikipedia says:
Mum is a Middle English word meaning ‘silent’,[2] and may be derived from the mummer who acts without speaking.[3] Note the similar English word “mime” (Old English “mīma”, Latin “mimus”) meaning silent actor or imitator.
I guess it’s a word that remained in use in the U.S. but fell out of favor in other parts of the English-speaking world.
Still in use in the UK too. See for example the title of the Rowan Atkinson film “Keeping Mum”.

I’ve heard the expression a few times but never actually understood what it meant! But yeah it’s never used in everyday language.
I don’t know that I ever heard it said by anyone younger than the Boomer generation.
It’s similar in etymology to mum’s the word iirc
So whoever this Carrie Underwood is, she’s to be known as a stupid cunt. Got it.
Nothing in this article suggests that she supports Trump.
You generally don’t perform at the presidential inauguration of a president you don’t support.
Because the all of it can’t be inside of itself?
Just trying to find a way to make sense of this.
