Jessica Simpson insists her beau Tony Romo isn’t calling his ex Carrie Underwood.”I looked at his call log,” she said Wednesday in an interview with a Nashville radio station.

Of Romo, Underwood tells September’s Allure: “The phone will ring and it’ll be him, and I’ll maybe not answer.”

“Tony and I both laughed at that,” Simpson said. “We got a chuckle out of it.” Read the full story at USmagazine.com

411LowDown Take: If I was Tony Romo, I’d probably be calling Carrie too… especially after having to settle for Jessica Simpson. Actually, they’re both pretty hot, so either is a touchdown for Romo. He had a little more brains w/ Carrie Underwood and perhaps the more popular of the two (currently). With Simpson, Romo gets “chicken of the sea” and “Daisy Duke” - nuff said.

This whole story stinks of the media making something out of nothing. Sure, Carrie Underwood had something to say about Tony in Allure magazine, but you never know how the editor “quoted” her or took the quote out of context.

Faith Hill insists she’s no Kanye West. The country music superstar says she was just joking when cameras showed her screaming “WHAT?” in apparent anger when she lost the female vocalist of the year award to newcomer Carrie Underwood at the Country Music Association Awards on Monday night in Nashville.

Although her voice could not be heard, it was clear from her lips what she said. She looked visibly upset and then it looked as if she was storming off. The incident has been replayed endlessly on sites like YouTube.com.

Underwood also didn’t take it seriously, according to her publicist, Jessie Schmidt, who said that Hill spoke to Underwood after the show and that the two were fine.

Underwood, the 2005 “American Idol” champ, has become a triple platinum success since releasing her debut album late last year. Hill is a longtime darling of country music with crossover pop appeal.

This is the second time in less than a week that an awards show loss has resulted in an (apparent) on-camera freakout by a loser. Last week, Kanye West stormed the stage at the MTV Europe Music Awards and interrupted the speech of the winners, claiming his video deserved the honor. - Associated Press

I guess being on stage during the award didn’t help, but Faith claims it was a harmless joke. Afterall, what would she have to be upset about anyway… it’s not like Carrie came out of nowhere (wink) or has become a start very quickly (wink, wink), all while Faith has been working on her career for decades, coming up slowly from nothing

The reaction appeared genuine, but we’ll never know because it’s easy to play it off as nothing now. I’ll bet her hubby, Tim McGraw, was just as upset when Kenny Chesney won the CMA’s biggest award (best entertainer).
