I have been a Kelly Rowland supporter since the very beginning. When she was apart of Destiny's Child,she was the one I noticed first,she stood out to me (even though Beyonce sang most of the leads). When the group line-up changed,I was O.K. because my favorite D.C. girl (Kelly) was still there. When the girls became a trio I was happy to see all three getting vocal shine (although Beyonce still had to dominate in that area). When the girls broke away from one another briefly to record solo projects I supported all three (especially Kelly). I always look foward to what Kelly does and I BUY albums. I don't download or burn music. I never have. I never will. However,I recently heard Kelly make a comment about U.S. fans (although I do not call myself a fan,I'm a supporter). She said that U.S. fans are finicky and disloyal; AND SHE'S ABSOLUTELY RIGHT;but I live here in the U.S. and I have been an outstanding supporter. Kelly seems to be giving up on the U.S. altogether,but what about those of us who have been WAITING on her projects,WAITING on her videos,WAITING on her tour, WAITING on her re-release;the key word is WAITING, patiently,only to be dissapointed half the time. Still, we wait for and even look foward to what she's planning next. How dare she give up on people who haven't given up on her. I am a U.S. resident,and I was personally offended by that comment. Kelly Rowland is one of the only young artist that I'm checking for,and I feel like pretty soon I wont even have access to her music because she seems to think her U.K. audience is better than her U.S. audience. It saddens me that we may not even get a re-release and if I want to see or hear about new music or new videos from Kelly I have to search the net. Kelly should consider her supporters in the states as well as over seas.
Signed,
A peeved supporter.
