Props to Carrie Underwood for kind of taking it there. America's sweetheart; the darling of Nashville, the prom queen of the high school that is our national culture, Underwood didn't have to shake things up; and while she didn't break the rules of gravity and good taste in her new clip for "Cowboy Casanova," she still got a little brazen with it. I mean how often do you associate line-dancing with Stanley Kubrick's creepy erotic thriller, Eyes Wide Shut? Well, now you do!
Once the masks get thrown aside, Carrie Underwood's "Cowboy Casanova" video gets slightly more traditional, with Underwood (whose ankles are FROZE! Check those heels out!) singing in a sultry voice while flapper-style gals flap around on the sidelines. There seems to be some space-time-fluxing going down here, with the '20s Jazz Age blending into a glam take on Deadwood at some point. All this in service to a song about a dude whose love is like a disease. Honey, men are the worst.
