Carrie Underwood Not a Twitter Fan 

By Nancy Wilson

Carrie Underwood says don't believe everything you read.  Carrie's the cover story on this week's Billboard Magazine, talking about the upcoming release of her third CD, "Play On" While Carrie is happy to use the media to alert fans of what's going on in her life, she says tweets from @carrieunderwood83 may look like they're coming from her, but they're not.  She says it's someone pretending to be her, as she has no plans to Twitter!  

 

Here's an excerpt from the Billboard article...

"Part of the efforts to alert Underwood's fans that there's a new album coming involved revamping her Web site, CarrieUnderwoodOfficial.com"What we're trying to do with the Web site is give fans a place to go where they could participate with what's going on with Carrie, and that's why the site is set up to be more community-based," says Sony Music Nashville VP of digital business Heather McBee. "They can upload photos. They can participate on the message boards and talk about the project."

One thing Underwood doesn't plan to use is Twitter. "It just sounds like organized stalking to me," she says. "I'll be in a restaurant and I'll get home and somebody tweeted and talked about what I ordered and what I was wearing. In some cases that could be dangerous because you don't want everybody to know where you are in every second of every day." (There's someone posing as Underwood on Twitter, in the comments on her Web site and on MySpace, and she warns fans that it isn't her.)"
