Watching Entertainment Tonight & they were discussing an upcoming special on Destiny’s Child that is going to show their concert from the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo. I think that’s pretty cool, great press for the Rodeo committee. They do a lot of great scholorships. I do have to say though – if you watch it and notice that everyone seems to be dressed “Western” – we don’t all dress that way normally! You just dress up like a cowboy or cowgirl when you go to the Rodeo. Even if you are going to see Destiny’s Child. Or Duran Duran, like Kymberlie & I did.

I think everyone thinks that we dress like that all the time. White hats and all. 🙂 That couldn’t be further from the truth.
I know! Isn’t it funny? That’s why I had to post that “disclaimer”. I only wear boots & Rockies when I am going to the Rodeo or going to a country dance club to go boot-scootin’!
Oh, the image folks have of Texans — cowboys clad in rugged jeans, boots and a ten-gallon hat.
I watched the Madonna concert that I’d Tivod last night with Steven (my boyfriend) and when she came out in Texas wear and a cowboy hat that was shaped kind of odd. I asked, “Does anyone really wear their hats shaped like that?” and Steven said, “Only people that are pretending to be cowboys.” 🙂
Well, that and Dwight Yoakum. And don’t GET ME STARTED about Alan Jackson’s “Where I Come From” song. Makes all Southerners sound like a bunch of hicks. “Where I come from, it’s Cornbread & Chicken…” Um, yeah, if I go to Black-Eyed Pea and order it.
