I don’t believe there’s any ‘board meetings’ here, just a woman with the talent and, yes, the contacts and resources to do whatever the fuck she wants, on her own terms.

I’m just hear to say that someone who went country because they “grew up on a farm” and it was a goddamn Christmas tree farm is actually somehow more whitebread than Toby Keith.

Norway is always cool. It’s a climate thing.
