So, we are watching the CMA Awards and super-underwhelmed thus far. For our money, committed Michigander Kid Rock put on a better show than nearly everyone on the stage. And he ain’t exactly country. But he is always entertaining and his unit is super-tight.

Most of the performances were dreadful. We like Kelly Pickler a lot, but man, she was out of key for most of her song. A lot of the other acts were dull, too. What’s with the leather get-ups? A few ladies there seem a little long in the tooth for that. We’d like also to mention that Jennifer Nettles needs a little better eye make-up. She looks natural, but we think she could use a bit more glam. Loved her dress. Miley Cyrus… just looks a bit rough for a teen, no? Perhaps she’s just tired from all of the acting, singing and dating and teen-queening. Or something. She just should look a bit fresher and yet she seems leagues behind her years.

The state of country is kinda lame. We think that lead singer for Lady Antebellum is kinda sorta cute, but country lacks truly attractive male stars these days. Some talented heartthrob deperately needs to break. Keith Urban can’t be the only hottie in the line-up. A lot of these dudes are just chubby and gimmicky. Kenny Chesney can’t be the only keeper of the fit body, right? He certainly has made the most of his assets, but the rest of this show crew is a little doughy. And candidly, a lot of the back-up musicians and singers are 7-times cuter than the stars. Didya see Jason Aldean’s band? We rest our case, cuter than the headliner.

Brad Paisley, probably not the greatest choice of a host. His music is Grade B, but not an engaged personality. We prefer Vince Gill but he’s always the host. Paisley’s little wife seems funny tho…..more later. We’re on a tangent and still watching.

Mariah Carey’s boy-husband looks more like a bodyguard than a spouse, the way he tries to escort her around at events. What a show those two put on! He always looks like he’s waiting on her. We ponder the longevity of this odd (publicity stunt) union.

Cute – and SO diva – that Jennifer Lopez made costume and hair-do changes during her husband’s 40th birthday bash last weekend. What, so one outfit would not do for the entire party?

Shannen Doherty looks super good now that we are seeing more of her with the redux of 90210. No really. We’d like to be catty but we’re happily surprised.

That Miley Cyrus looks like she’s wearing a wig, in real life. We fear she’s on the Jamie Lynn Spears track. Her dad doesn’t look, ummmmm, too strict, shall we say. She seems oddly flip and arrogant for a teenager with some power. Not likeable at all.

That Trista Sutter from The Bachelor/Bachlorette kinda got uglier now that she’s off TV and living in the real world. We liked her, but she’s a lot more suburban frumpy these days. Sigh, sigh, sigh. Is marriage the black hole of pretty? We think probably so.

We think Michael Phelps is a terrific swimmer but not hot. Kinda dorky, but definitely a great athlete.

We think Robert Downey Jr. could use some Juvederm or facial filler. His face is deploding as he gets older. Have ya noticed? He is one of our favorites so we sent this side note with

We would like to try on the Cindy McCain clothes. She has quite the diva closet. World class.

We think this election is the MOST sexist ever. We can’t get over it. We really can’t.

We like Sarah Palin but think those suits of hers look a little too Talbots. She’s petite and all, but we’d like to see her move into dresses a bit. Her personality is so large, she doesn’t need a suit to be forceful, we think. Loving tho, that she loves high heels. She’s rocking them HUGE on the campaign trail.

We wish we could be a fly on the wall at Hillary’s house. We bet she is PISSED that Palin and McCain stole her thunder. Not picking her will totally turn out to be Obama’s biggest regret.

Dancing with the Stars starts next week. We’ll be there. Watch along with us so we can make fun of people.
