Ha! "Mean people need Jesus" - Carrie Underwood

Cross-posted from The DU Lounge.

Carrie Underwood took a shellacking from the critics, about her (non) acting in "The Sound of Music."

Underwood responds - "they need moar Jesus." Along with quoting a few Babble verses, of course.

Full Disclosure: I have always completely hated all versions of "Sound of Music." It almost convinced me that the Nazis had at least one good idea.

1. Carrie Underwood needs to get a clue and take some acting classes.

2. I love the Julie Andrews one so much that I refused to watch the Carrie Underwood version...

Good to know that I didn't miss anything.

3. That is just what I did too.

I love the movie and didn't want to see a revision. I would not have liked it, even if it was good.

7. This wasn't a revision of the movie

This was the stage production. Which predates the film by about 6 years.

5. I love the original for the music

Julie Andrews is a gem!

4. When I heard that she had said that,

I thought WTF does a critic not liking a performance have to do with Jesus. Some people just have to interject religion into everything. And obviously, Carrie Underwood is one of those people. Although I never liked her, I dislike her more now.

6. I think it is their preferred method of response to criticism

Sad really
