Imagine my surprise to find that the Dixie Chicks have made front page at Yahoo! for NOT getting nominated for any ACM's. No matter what, our girls seem to get publicity!

I'm surprised that Yahoo are surprised at this news. As it's not a fan based nomination, I would have thought that, even if the Chicks were the last singers on earth, there's no way that the ACM are ever going to nominate them again. That's the ACM's loss, but let's move on and leave the ACM with their (largely) second-rate artists.
But, as you intimate, the publicity can't be a bad thing!

I am not at all suprised that the Chicks were not included in the nominations. That was to be expected. It does surprise me that Vince Gill was nominated since He has always supported the Chicks. I WILL NOT watch the Show but I will be pulling for Vince. I still find it totally laughable that Country Music establishments do not play their Music and boycott everything they do but when it comes time to add up the sales for country Music for the year the Chicks are one of the first that are added in to boost their bottom line. WHAT A BUNCH OF A**HOLES. The Chicks have the most loyal fans anywhere and we will support them no matter what direction they take their Music so "ON WITH THE SONGS" Ladys. We Got Your Back.

What a surprise... NOT! Ya know, the ACM's are just making themselves look ridiculous... 5 Grammy Awards including album of the year and not 1 nomination from the ACM's... seems like sour grapes to me. This is a clear message that Nashville has turned their backs for good but LA and Hollywood have recieved the girls with open arms. Sounds like the Chicks got the better end of the deal.
Suck off ACM's... your show blows every year anyway... the Grammys were really good though... Go figure!

I was watching access hollywood yesterday and they were showing the chicks and I was all excited and then they went on to say that they were shut out of the ACM's despite winning all those grammys and I was like grrr, lol. But my point is that they got more tv time then any of the other artists that were actually nominated so whatever.

Someone said it right on another thread.
The only way to keep the Chicks from taking home all the awards is to make sure they aren't nominated.
So true.
