Respond to this video... The blond boy can be a good bitch in prison . Love to tap that boy and let him eat my meat and swallow my milk .

@mexx36 Than anyone can sing Pop for that matter!

[VASINGER]

@mexx36 That is not true. You obviously never heard of Patsy Cline. Not anyone can sing Country. It requires talent. Unlike Pop and Rock. Anyone can scream and stuff like Rock. Country music requires conviction to sing.

@VASINGER

Singing and whining is NOT talent, anyone can sing country.

[mentonerodominicano]

And considering this was a voting category and that they are still unknown... but anyway, have a nright carrer guys! :)

@PimpCoop faggot... who the fuck is glorianna?

[VASINGER]

@philipthe1st I do. I LOVE COUNTRY. Well, the real stuff.

[VASINGER]

I think Country Music has more talent, and people are starting to FINALLY recognize that.

[LuvFearlessly]

@NObama95 Really? Taylor Swift fans are psycho? And Monsters aren't? Good one.
