Chely Wright Sales Bomb

Chely Wright came out last May and says the reaction among her fan base at the time was really bad. Some of the idiots even sent her hate mail and a lot of people stopped buying her records. She thinks the perception among the gay community that coming out helped her career in any way is ridiculous. I seem to remember the same thing happening to Ellen not so long ago. It's sad but country fans generally aren't the most accepting folks out there. I hope she bounces back but I'm thinking she may have to switch genres.
