It all started when Carrie Underwood made an offhand comment in an interview about how her ex-boyfriend, Dallas Cowboys' quarterback Tony Romo, still called her sometimes. This obviously didn't sit well with Romo's new girlfriend, Jessica Simpson, who responded by wearing a t-shirt that said, "Real Girls Eat Meat" (Underwood is widely known as a vegetarian).
But now Underwood is downplaying the idea of a feud existing between them, as reported by People:
When asked by reporters about Simpson, who is dating Underwood's ex-boyfriend Tony Romo, the country star brushed off rumors of a feud.This makes a lot of sense from Underwood's point of view. Engaging in a feud with Jessica Simpson would be like playing a game of Trivial Pursuit with her: there's just no point because you know who's going to win. Every time Simpson wants to take a swipe at her boyfriend's ex, Underwood can just polish all of her Grammy awards and laugh."I met her once and she seemed really nice so I don't have a feud with anybody," said Underwood.
