Swift among CMA’s entertainer of the year nominees
THREE COUNTRY ARTISTS AMONG ROLLING STONE'S TOP "WOMEN WHO ROCK"
UNDATED (AP) -- Three country artists are among Rolling Stone's top "Women Who Rock." Patsy Cline, because she "belts some of the torchiest, weepiest country songs ever, hitting high notes that make you sob into your margarita." Dolly Parton makes it because "Jolene" is "one of the most obsessively complex love stories ever captured in a country song." Taylor Swift is on the list because she is "one of the few genuine rock stars" of her time, who has "a flawless ear for what makes a song click." And if you're wondering who was named number one female rocker -- it's Aretha Franklin, the Queen of Soul.
