It looks like her militant-lesbian-agenda has failed miserably and her
music career is virtually over. Even her facebook fans are getting
tired of the strong lesbian-push with higher priority over her new
music and are turning against her.

Sonya Thomas Come on guys. I just spoke with someone who is very
important in Chely's inner circle and they told me that her record has
only sold a little over 12,000 copies. We have more than 20, 000
people on this facebook page. We can do better than 12,000copies to
show her how much she has meant to us. They also said that the country
music audience is NOT supporting her with record sales and this is
just wrong. She has done so much for her country music fans in the
past and now. So, all of her newfound fans need to step up to the
plate and speak volumes by supporting her record. We all can do this.

Agnes Cici Are you sure they have the most recent count? I just heard
in one of her interviews that it was at almost 1 million copies.

Kristy Ford I really hate to hear that... I also think we need to get
on the phone and request her music (EVERY HOUR ON THE HOUR ;D),
because I know many people who simply haven't even heard her new
single...

Stacey Maynard I bought the CD through amazon MP3s, and so I wonder
how much of those count. But I will be buying a physical CD while Im
in Chicago so I can (hopefully) get her to sign the liner notes. :D

Lanie James I'd like to know which is better for artists - physical CD
purchase or download? I prefer downloads these days just for space -
but sometimes enjoy the "bonuses" that come with cds.

Agnes Cici Bethany, trust Sonya when she says her source is reliable!
It's extremely close to Chely.

Sonya Thomas @Bethany, you can go to the "Team Chely" facebook page
and email the Admins on there and get the same info. She mentions
every one of these people on her liner notes so I assume that they ARE
pretty reliable.
@Melanie, I heard that on Tony Sweet's show as well and then I heard
something about 11,000 today on here and that is why I emailed them on
Team Chely, to get the true numbers.
I am not sure why Tony said that-wishful thinking, I dont know. All I
know is that we have got to help her get this record heard because she
deserves it and the public deserves to hear her story and be moved by
it.

Stephani Dahl-Lougher OK.. I dont want this to sound mean... and I do
love you as an artist.. Always have loved your music... BUT ever since
you have "come out" to everyone... all you do, all thats on your page,
is all about being a lesbian. Is that how it is going to be from now
on? I dont want that to sound mean, and I do believe that is your
life... and Im glad you can express that now... but ALL the time????
Are you going to be just an "country artist" again soon?? and make
music like you did before??? That is the Chely Wright we love.... Just
sayin!!!

Yolonda Rooney I totally agree with you!!! I have been a fan of
Chely's for years but geeze, I'm so ready to delete this page from
mine. I'm glad that she's finally came out of the proverbial closet
but I'm not gay and I don't really like having it all over my home
page per Chely's page.

Nickie Dixon I can't speak for her, but being in "hiding" so to speak
for her whole life and feeling locked up surely we can allow her some
time to celebrate this newfound freedom. A month of freedom compared
to 30+ years of secrecy doesn't seem like too much now does it? Im
sure it'll all die down soon. Just be patient :)

Lynn Johnson Seppala I can see what you are saying, but I think it is
still big news, and a lot of people are interested in it. So there
have been a lot of interviews, etc. She posts all the performances and
interviews on here and that is what everyone is asking about right
now. She is still Chely Wright the country artist. If you look at her
page, it isn't all about being a lesbian. She has new album and a new
book, too!
Just like when Ellen came out....it was everywhere. Now she is just
Ellen. You either love her or you don't....most know she is a lesbian,
but its just part of who she is. It will be the same for Chely after
the hub bub dies down! :)

Glo Selvey Yes, after all it is her truth and we love her no matter
what she does. She has a purpose for this and a message to get

singer? Like an awesome human being who is helping so many and trying
to make this world a better place for all gay and straight? To me, I
love her as an artist but this kinda outshines that at the moment.

Agnes Cici Not to mention we all know how much Chely likes to help
people, and if her coming out of the closet can help put a face on the
word "gay" and make things easier for someone somewhere, maybe save a
few thousand lives, who are you to ask it to stop???
She is one of the few celebrities I have seen who use their fame for
good... who stand up for what they believe in... no matter the cost...
If you want to go, that's a shame... If you are a true fan, you will
support Chely in all her endeavors. Did you have a problem with R W
and R publicity popping up on your page? That wasn't about her as a
country music artist, but her using her celebrity to help children...
and in fact help Second Harvest too...
Just my 2cents... ok maybe 2 dollars....

CHELY, IGNORE THE HATERS!!! There are still many of us who love and
support you, and are HAPPY to see YOU so happy!
Oh and Yolanda? PEACE OUT, indeed.

Pam Mullins you know instead of doging chely for standing up for what
she believes in you should be supporting her and standing up for her
not putting her down. It took alot for her to come out and stand up
and be who she truley is and for that i commend her and it doesnt
matter if she talks about she is still the same person she always was
and if you dont believe in and what she stands for than she dosent
need support anyway because your not supporting her by doging her just
saying. chely you go girl you have my support all the way stand up and
