Wynonna: "Too Soon" for Taylor Swift to Win Entertainer of the Year

Thursday – November 12, 2009 – 8:38am

On Wednesday, Taylor Swift became the youngest artist ever to win the Country Music Association Awards' top honor: Entertainer of the Year.

But Wynonna Judd doesn't think Swift, 19, is ready for such a top honor.

"You want my honest comment? It’s too much too soon," the singer told USA Today before the show. "Time is God’s way of keeping everything from happening at once. It’s just too much of a good thing too soon."

Judd, 45, added: "My thing is, being a home-school mom, I want kids to earn it, and I think some time ... 'cause mom and I rode in a car for the first year of our career to visit radio stations. There was a making of the star, there was a rising up, and the fans went with us.

"Now it’s over coffee breaks, the success, almost," she added. "You have to play catch up ... It's like the girl who wins an Oscar and she's under 20. What do you do from here?"

    No disrespect to Taylor's fans out there, but while I admire the girl's enthusiasm, attitude and potential for songwriting, her musical (read: vocal) range isn't very extensive; I heard her live, and...wasn't too impressed. But hey, maybe that's just me. As for winning the award, maybe the old bird's right: maybe it was too much too soon. An artist should be encouraged, absolutely, but they should also be allowed to grow. Where really, can she go from here now that she's won one of the most prestigious awards in the country music industry? It is a valid question. Don't shoot me, boo me or throw tomatoes at me. I come in peace. :)

    Get yer crippled old butt off the computer, boy, and get yerself a job so you don't hafta keep pickin' on beautiful young wimmin! Nobody keers 'boutcher old-fashioned country music idols, They're talkin' 'bout Taylor Swift, now. She's open'd up a whole new genre of music to the new crowd, and rightfully deserves to be addressed as "Entertainer of the Year". Go to work now, and when you see Wynone-a, you make sure to cozy right up to that oversized poop-chute she hauls around with her sloppy self!

    You go Wy! Lets face it. Taylor is a product of Scott Borchata and his pull and marketing abilities in Nashville period. I know 100 girls 20 years or younger who can write and sing 1000 times better and are just as cute. Scott saw the oppourtunity to market to the millions of kids of baby boomers and saw the success of the disney kids ( Jonas, and Miley) and marketed his way to entertainer of the year with Taylor. Lets face it. The girl cannot sing and does not deserve to be with the likes of George Strait, Johnny Cash, Marty Robbins, Loretta Lynn, Martina McBride etc... etc... as a part of the prestigous group of entertainer of the year in COUNTRY MUSIC. Lets face it. Country Music will remember Folsom Prison Blues and Amarillo by morning. But I doubt anyone over the age of 20 can sing you the lyrics of a Taylor Swift song after next year.

    How did Whiner judd happen to push herself away from the trough long enough to be able to find someone willing to listen to her drivel? Go back to obscurity where you belong- nobody cares what you think. Best wishes for continued successes, Taylor, and keep singing your heart out!

    Wynnoa is absolutely correct! It is not because she is bitter, washed up or fat as being commented upon in the blogs. What is wrong with people? When do you earn your dues? Perhaps if all these young whippersnappers under the age of 20 would not be allowed to vote this wouldn't happen. Taylor Swift looks like Paris Hilton in the picture on this site with her chest stuck out. Did you not notice she really CANNOT sing? Her voice sounds the same monotone throughout each song. People work hard all their lives to get where they are and some never make it. Look at the hard work of Dolly, Wynonna, Reba and all the country greats. Taylor is not a country great but a fan favorite for the 12 year olds who do not know work ethics. I would love to see this change as there are too many like her and Carrie Underwood who do not understand years of hard work. Fame to them is instant. Miley Cyrus is in this category as well. I can't stand her singing.

    Taylor Swift does not really sing she sounds like she talks to the sound of music, the awards are not deserved. Not with all the other great artists in the room, but don't worry it will only go down hill for her as she gets older and the fans get older and smarter.

    I agree with Kylie- Wynona is bitter-and is she too stupid to realize- This IS God's timing- she just doesn't like it- no class at all- go eat a doughnut

    Sorry, I was just talking out my butt, Taylor IS a wonderful talent and much deserved the entertainer of the year award.

    Everthing I have worked for all my life????all my life??? I just got!..what is all your life Taylor..three years? what a slap in the face those words are for people like George, Garth, Tim, Kenny..
  • November 15, 2009 - 8:14pm Jessica Says:

    Brent...you should be able to sing in order to entertain! Taylor sings pop not country!

    wynona is just fat, bitter and washed up

    Well I think that she is a very good artist, one of the VERY FEW who actually writes and does almost everything her own way. she's very good at what she does and has appeal to a few different categories of music. I think just because she's young doesn't make her not worthy of the award. I think it should go to whoever the fans vote for, not just based on age. Just because she's young doesn't mean she doesn't have a lot of talent.

    Thank humankind that we're not all stuck on praising people because they're old and no longer relevant! Congratulations Taylor Swift-ENTERTAINER OF THE YEAR!!!

    Thank God someone had the set to say it! Taylor Swift had no business even being in that category, much less winning it!

    SOME OF THE COMMENTS IN HERE ARE OUT RIGHT HATEFUL-RUDE AND UN CALLED FOR. WYNONNA SAID SOMETHING THAT THOUSANDS OF OTHER PEOPLE WERE TO AFRAID TO SAY. EXACTLY FOR THE REASON THAT IS GOING ON HERE. WYNONNA IS NOT JEALOUS OF TAYLOR. AND ITS NOT LIKE SHE PULLED A MIC OUT OF HER HAND. ((WYNONNA WAS JUST STATING A TRUE FACT!!!))

    Winnona seems to forget that she was 18 when she and her mom hit big. So now that she is older and a big has been with a really sucky life she feels the need to chime in, I don't think so!! What she needs to do is shut up and go away again this time for good. I'm not a big Taylor Swift fan but she earned the awards especially Entertainer of the year so let her be. Carrie should not have butted in.
