Carrie Underwood, love it or hate it?

Carrie-underwood-1-500x375


I didn't even pay any attention to the fact that Carrie Underwood cut and lightened her hair for tonight's AMAs.  But People Magazine pointed it out and even have a poll to let you give your opinion. 

Thoughts?

Update: Okay, after a couple of emails and a couple of comments I'll concede she removed her extensions. Whatevah.  The question still stands, do you prefer short or long?

Darryl Worley blogs about neck surgery

Darryl%20Worley%20Shoot%20-%20Processed-56


I'm thinking about whether or not I knew Darryl Worley was having neck surgery and I can't honestly remember if I had heard anything about it or not.  Hmmm.  Well for those of you who were aware of Darryl's neck injury and surgery Darryl took to his blog to let his fans know everything's A-OK with him. 

Just wanted to let everybody know that I'm doing good after the surgery. I had a discectomy and cervical fusion. Thank you for your prayers for me and my family. Barry is recovering fast from his crash and Mom's leg is  doing well.  They both have about 3 months of recovery time so Dad has his hands full. I did my first show back from surgery night before last. Everything went well but this has  been a little more challenging than I thought. Thanks again for all the thoughts and prayers and I hope to see you somewhere out there soon. No more pain in the neck!
 
So what exactly did happen?  I got curious and went to do a little digging.  The only thing I could find was on the Las Vegas Sun....
 
“I have a ruptured disc between the sixth and seventh cervical vertebrae right at the base of my neck, and a bone spur too,” he said from his home outside of Nashville. “So they’re going to go in through the front of my neck and remove the disc and put in an artificial one and fuse those two vertebrae together, and inject some bone cells into the equation and let those bone cells fuse that area into one big vertebrae.

“Years ago it was intense, or they thought it was because it’s right there in the spinal area and it’s a neural thing. But now, it has become very routine. It only takes about 45 minutes. I’m not even going to the hospital. I’m just going to the clinic where they first saw me. They’ll perform the surgery there and then they’ll let us go across street and let us spend the rest of the day and night in a hotel. Then they’ll see me the first thing the following morning and release me to go home.”

Ewww, ouch.  Seems Darryl actually hurt his neck years ago but then reinjured it back in September and has been having trouble ever since.
“We were doing some heavy lifting and cleaning up some stuff out on the farm and we picked up a really big toolbox and I ruptured my disc.”
Well I'm glad to see Darryl's back in action and feeling better. 
 
Update:  Reader Amanda gave me the full story on what's going on. Thanks Amanda.....Yeah like you found out...he injured it again right before his annual TRR. His wife told that they were cleaning up around the farm because CMT was coming the week after TRR to tape for CMT Cribs. He and a friend were cleaning up and he picked up that toolbox by himself and that's how he did it. He told us during TRR that he may not be able to groove like usual haha. And announced last month at a show I went to that he was going to have surgery for it. Then, the day before he was to have his surgery, his mother fell and broke her leg up above the knee and they took her to the hospital that very night. And a couple of weeks before all of this, Darryl's brother, Barry had a bad car accident and was in Memphis hospital. It was a tough time for all 3 being in the Memphis hospital.

Taylor wins a couple AMA Awards

R


Taylor wasn't able to attend the AMA's in person tonight, but that didn't stop her from picking up two early awards, one for favorite female artist in the pop/rock category and favorite adult-contemporary artist. 

Taylor accepted her awards live via satellite from backstage at London's Wembley Arena where she was rehearsing for Monday London show. "I will never be able to say how much I love you," she said.

Taylor is still nominated for four more awards.  Check back later to find out if she won any others.
