Jessica Simpson was snubbed by the Country Music Association awards.

Jessica Simpson snubbed by the Country Music Association awards.

The 'Come On Over' singer - who released her first country music album 'Do
You Know' earlier this year - had reportedly asked to perform at the
ceremony.
However, Jessica was allegedly told by organizers she couldn't attend
because they had no space, despite non-country music guests including Lil'
Wayne, Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman making an
appearance at the event.
It is rumored Jessica was snubbed because the awards were presented by
Carrie Underwood, who used to date 'The Dukes of Hazzard' star's boyfriend
Tony Romo.
Instead of performing at the glamorous ceremony, Jessica played to a
half-empty bingo and casino hall in Arizona.
Speaking ahead of the performance at San Manuel Indian Bingo and Casino,
Jessica, 28, said: "It's a very intimate show and it just gives me a chance
to stand up on stage and let people know who I am and where I'm at in my
life and what I've gone through and hopefully be some sort of inspiration to
anybody there in the crowd listening."
The snub is the latest setback to hit Jessica's new musical direction.
Her album and single were not as successful as hoped and she was booed at
her first country music concert in July.
The 28-year-old blonde launched her new sound at the Country Thunder
Festival in Twin Lakes, Wisconsin, but the unimpressed audience heckled her
throughout the show.
Jessica has claimed she wants to make country music for "the rest" of her
life.
