Hearing about Carrie Underwood….It really stings

I know it’s already been discussed but this just hits way to close to home for me.

I grew up gay in Arkansas….I love music and remember hearing Jesus take the Wheel and Before he cheats in the radio and yelling at my mom to turn it up when I was six…

From there on I was a huge fan and loved all of here song…years later I can sing Blown away word for word easily…

And just knowing as a queer country kid knowing she (at least from what I thought at the time) supported our community just made me love her more….like y’all she was up there with Beyoncé, Britney and Gaga for me and I know she was for other queers, especially southern and rural ones. It’s like learning Gaga is a MAGA for me you know?

She also grew up an hour and a half from me as well.

I know I shouldn’t care so much but it just stings…especially since I’m gonna have to undownload all her albums I have…it’s just stinks
