“Filthy and Unsafe for Kids”
A Comment That Shocked
Country star Carrie Underwood made headlines after a backstage remark about Taylor Swift’s latest album:
“It’s filthy and unsafe for kids.” Known for her poise and family values,
Underwood’s words sparked a global conversation about music and its influence on children.
Protecting the Youngest Fans
Sources say her concern was heartfelt: “She wasn’t attacking Taylor.
She was talking as a parent who knows how powerful music can be for kids.”
Underwood added, “I adore Taylor’s talent, but some of these lyrics…
I just wish artists would think of the kids who idolize them.”
A Nation Divided
Fans debated fiercely online. One parent agreed: “I love Taylor, but Carrie’s not wrong.
My 10-year-old sings her songs, and sometimes I have to turn them off.”
Others countered: “Let kids listen to art. Parenting means guiding, not censoring.”
Impact on the Industry
Underwood’s point: “Every artist has their freedom.
But as someone raising kids, I think it’s fair to talk about what we expose them to.”
Critics see it as a reminder for artists to consider their influence on young audiences.
