This is the third day in a row I see a story complaining about Carrie Underwood’s performance in SOM. I’m convinced it’s more about her politics than her actual performance in the role.
Give it up, folks!
So now the Huffington Post pulls out a member of the real Von Trapp family stating their preference for Anne Hathaway in the part of Maria.
Turns out, the real Von Trapp family wasn't so hot on the idea of Carrie Underwood playing Maria in "The Sound of Music Live!"
Myles von Trapp Derbyshire, the great grandson of Maria von Trapp, expressed his disappointment in NBC's casting to ABC News.
“It’s just upsetting that this could potentially be the final broadcast of our story,” he said. “And although her voice is amazing, she doesn’t have acting experience ... It’s just the overall image, she’s a country star, she won ‘American Idol,’ she’s very public in kind of a tabloid way.”
Maybe these people are still upset that Carrie Underwood made fun of ObamaCare too.
