♥ Congratulations Rascal Flatts!!

A homosexual pop singer who sings like a woman. An insult to Country music!

It's bands like this that has kept country music on the radio. At no point in my life have I ever been taught that being country is keeping to a certain sound or look or even place to live. I was taught that its a life style. If you don't like Rascal Flatts don't listen to them. They have stamped their name into country music and they do deserve to be inducted into the Grand Ole Opry. Even Vince Gill has the utmost respect for this band...If he says they are country, in my opinion, they are.

love the grand ole opry-very talented musicians-thanks

As with all music....it changes over time. Yes, the newer artists don't sound like Patsy Cline or Little Jimmy Dickens....but they are still VERY TALENTED COUNTRY musicians. The newer artists ARE the FUTURE of country music and must be incorporated into the Grand Ole Opry for it's longevity. I love the newer artists and feel their music is more relevant to today's world. Congratulations Rascal Flatts!!!

screw all the haters saying they dont deserve, rascal flatts 100% deserves it they are big in country music so to the people saying they arent country i beg to differ

@riv4life618 I 100% agree, no disrespect to this 'boyband' but country should be country.

[riv4life618]

Can't believe they let these "artists" stand in THE CIRCLE much less put them in a club with people like Patsy, Faron, Loretta, and George. Hank Williams wasn't even ever reinstated. If they wanted a new member why not put him back in? Maybe Buck Owens? Or if they wanted an active artist and a band how about the Dixie Chicks, who were actually Country. But no Country disowned them in favor of this. It's a sad day when even the Opry is being swept in the rest of Country Music's self destruction.

WILL SARA EVANS EVER BE INVITED TO BECOME AN OPRY MEMBER?
