Definitely real- did you see at the end she was holding her stomach cause she was about to lose it. I thought it was sweet and very real.
Hell who cares if the waterworks were real or not? They certainly were affective and it kind of made me emotional watching it. She did the same thing on AI last season and it works for the song. So keep those tears comin’!
I am cynical. But I thought the tears were real. There’s something about big events like that that can make one hyper emotional.
The tears were probably real. The rest of her, not so much.
Good Lord, did you ever see that girl on American Idol? She doesn’t have the wits to perform that well.
She’s totally faking it. The girl has been touring with Brad Paisley, and supposedly cries EVER night for this song. She’s still trying to milk her past for some publicity.
Why does it matter???
I saw her open for Brad Paisley this summer and she choked up singing this song then, I’m sure it’s just a very emotional thing for her, and being on the stage at the CMA’s probably making her realize she has made it, and her mother isn’t there to see it. I think they were definitely real, and I got emotional watching it!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! that was horribly hysterical! (what the hell was on her neck anyway?)
Jay…you are completely diluted if you think her chest is real…apparently you haven’t seen a during American Idol pic & a now. Men are so clueless about such things! Keep dreaming that those perfectly porportioned babies are real! And, as someone else said, I’m pretty cynical…I think the tears were real, but if she does this every night when she sings it, at what point would the song be sentimental to you yet you wouldn’t break down in to weepy tears? There has to be that point. I’m having a really tough time feeling empathy for her. Come on babe! You’re not the only one who has had a tough life. No one is taking your experiences away from you, but suck it up! Your in the big time now…learn how to be!
I think the tears were real, it’s an emotional song and I was a little moved by it. I was also moved by Carrie Underwood’s second speech, though.
And as far as “fake crying” goes, it does take away from things a bit. After I found out Beyonce was crying at every tour stop, I didn’t feel so special anymore.
Kelly needs to replace that gal on the view on preg leave – Elizabeth. Kellie has that spunky aw shucks personality. and as far as her singing a song that she wrote about her mama and daddy not being there — who cares if it was real or not! Geez!
I think that her tears are real. The girls had a tough life. She also had big dreams for herself, which have came true for her. Look at her a small town girl who wanted to make it big in country music, and now she is singing on ths CMA’s, that would be enough to bring me to tears. Plus that song is about her Mom.
she’s not my favorite gal, but i really like the song and i believe the tears are real. maybe she does cry every time she sings it, but she didn’t have the easiest life growing up, and now she has some fame and she can’t share it with the “mom” she should’ve had. it’s bittersweet.
Hard to tell if they’re real or not. It’s a nice, emotional song so I think maybe she was probably just overwhelmed as she was singing. But really, that’s kind of pathetic. The other famous Kelly’s tears on live TV were much better, whether Pickler’s are real or not is irrelevant.
