Don't mess with Carrie Underwood fans! Several of her trusty followers are now bashing the GRAMMY Museum after they noticed she is not included in The Power of Woman in Country Music exhibit. The Recording Academy announced the exhibit on April 21st, which is set to highlight past, present, and future country music female singers. The Power Of Women in Country Music exhibits are set to launch on Friday, May 27, and will run through Sunday, October 2.
After the GRAMMY Museum's Twitter account released the list, fans quickly noticed that Underwood wasn't named, despite her being an eight-time GRAMMY winner.
What a JOKE to leave out Carrie Underwood, Martina McBride, Sara Evans, Pam Tillis,Tanya Tucker, The Judds, Jo Dee Messina, Terri Clark & The Chicks. Just ridiculous!

One Twitter user responded to the Tweet, saying, "The fact that you left out the biggest star in country music is appalling. @carrieunderwood should have her own wing at this museum." With another one tweeting, "With all due respect, why isn't @carrieunderwood part of this so-called "power of women in country music" exhibit? I think it's kind of disrespectful not to include her in such a thing, Carrie is one of the biggest stars in country music and she deserves the recognition!"
Pretty embarrassing that the one woman consistently breaks barriers & records in Country Music isn’t mentioned in here? Why isn’t Carrie Underwood, the leading woman of Country Music, not in this?
