Sara Evans Won't Spill the Beans on "Dancing"

46. Some of these posters crack me up. When I divorced my husband- I put in irreconcilable differences- and when we got to court the judge asked my exhusband if he agreed with this or did he want me to state what the actual reason for the divorce was. My exhusband agreed so I wouldnt make him look like the fool he was in court. I never kept it a secret that he was a lying cheating scumbag- that was his problem not mine. I surely wasnt gonna let myself feel like i did something wrong. Yes it takes 2 to let a relationship die- but it was him not keeping it in his pants that was the issue.

47. Per Jeff "Cut Sara a break, she has to list the happenings in her marraige for the purpose of filing the initial divorce proceedings. She's not doing this for publicity. She doesn't need it, she's already considered one of the most talented stars in country music."

Dancing with the Stars is full of "B" movie stars and nobodys. These are people that are washed up in their careers. The dancing has done nothing to put her two left feet in the spotlight. She is airing dirty laundry for sympathy. Pathetic.

Sara you have now reached stardom by being a media whore.

48. She is a dumbass. Her career is minimal, her marriage is over, her private life is now public, she will be paying spousal and child support for at least the next 16 years. All this while her ex-husband is f***ing anything he wants without the stress.

Hooray for him!!

49. i think it is hard enough when a family breaks up, and the damn press got hold of something and ran with it, it is very unfair to blame her. it is time for all us gals to get behind her, only she knows how she feels and I think she is trying to do her best, COME ON GALS LET US ALL GET BEHIND HER.

51. Sunny - YOU ARE A TOTAL DUMB ASS!! Do you think every state is the same? Not every state has a no fault divorce law MEANING you have to have DAMN GOOD reasons for wanting a divorce - not just irreconciliable differences. In New York you have to list everything you did not know about and EXACTLY why you want a divorce. I am sure other states are similar. Sara did nothing wrong. She filed her papers and the media got a hold of them and ran with it. You act as if she went on Extra and told the whole country. Quit being a BITCH! I hope your husband cheats on you so you see how it feels you stupid cow! People are so unbelievably ignorant it amazes me. Get some education while you are at it too!

52. Response to 10/17/06 comment from Bobby:
WHERE, in the Bible, does it say "sex outside your marriage is permissible"?????
Evidently, you are not using the same Bible as most Christians (and myself) are.

53. I can't believe how many defenders are on here, defending the despicable behavior of this man!!

When is breaking your vows by cheating, lying, stealing, become acceptable behavior. But IF a person doesn't want to live with a mate that is doing all the above, she or he, is the one that should "wake-up" because this is now the "norm" in our society?

No wonder our country is going to hell in a handbasket!!

54. those of you who think that she purposely released this information to the media for publicity have no clue how the legal system or the media works. if she is seeking custody of her children, she needs to show that is is in the best interests of the kids that they stay w/ her and not a dishonest adulterer obsessed w/ sex. in addition, certain states would require (regardless of custody) her to alleged facts other than "irreconcilable differences". i am sure that when she dropped out the the dance competition due to a pending divorce (likely to maintain her sanity and keep her life and the life of her children in order) the media ran to the courthouse and got the papers. she didn't release them.

one more thing!!! he was not simply "looking at porn". he had pictures of himself engaged in sex acts w/ other women. and he had an affair w/ the nanny. get a clue folks. your comments make your ignorance shine through brighter than 100 suns.

55. I'm totally appalled at some of these comments. Do you REALLY not know that adultry IS listed as a NO-NO in the 10 commandments?? Maybe you should stop and READ it...ok, and if not, do you REALLY still feel it's OK? I'm not sure where these people are crawling outta the woodwork from. As a woman who has been thru an similiar experience, she only did what she should have. When your lawyer asks you to give him grounds, you give it. It's not Sara's fault the nosy public is in her personal business. It's nothing I would wish on my worst enemy. You can wake up one day and everything you thought was real is opened up in front of you and it's devasting. Sara, keep your chin up. You aren't the one who did the wrong. Time will make things easier to deal with, but it's still always there. Don't listen to these idiots who have no clue what you are going thru. Morals DO STILL EXIST...you just can't expect the 'public' and media to jump to the defense of it. Shame on those of you who condemn her!

56. I feel the pain Sara is going through. My former wife/friend BROKE my heart TWICE- when she Divorrced me after 23 years of marriage, and the 2nd time when she DIED 4-1/2 years ago. She just didn't want to be MARRIED anymore and there was NOONE else in either of our lives. We did remain friends until her death and got together for our daughters' birthdays, Holidays and "Potluck Dinners" at someone's home each month. Saddly it seems Sara won't have this same tyype of "Afterwards" that I had. I empathize with her and completely understanf her needs to comfort and support her children in what will be a very trying period in her and their lives. As a fan I dearly LOVE her music and wish her and her children well in the future.. .

58. ANY OF YOU GUYS THAT THINK SHE WAS WRONG TO DO WHAT SHE DID, WE I FEEL SORRY FOR ALL OF YOU. YOU ALL NEED TO GET A CLUE THAT MEANS WISE UP. WELL THE ONLY THING SHE SHOULD BE SORRY ABOUT IS SHE DIDN T BEAT THE SH*T OUT OF HIM. HE IS A LOSER LIKE MOST OF YOU AND SUNNY YOU ARE AT THE TOP OF THE LIST.

59. If her husband is guilty of all or any of this - why would she go SO public with it if her children are her main concern. Kinda smells of more publicity for her career since it has been enhanced by being on Dancing with Stars. She was definitely one of the weaker women dancers in the contest.

60. Sara is doing the right thing. I am a fan of music across the wide-spectrum of musical genres, and I am also a fan of hers. She always spoke highly of her husband and adores her family. She was very much in love and it is very sad that the man she thought she knew for so many years was living this secret life. It must be very difficult for her to face such a slap in the face and at the same time try to maintain a happy persona on national TV when your dealing with such an aweful reality at home. Also, I think it is so rediculous that her husband has came out and said that these alligations are fabricated. I find that very hard to believe. For a woman so much in love and so pro-family, I am 100% sure that none of this is fabricated. Remember, it was not Sara who disclosed this information to the public. Unfortunately, as a celebrity, nothing is kept secret. Insiders got a hold of this story and ran with it. Furthermore, these are pretty perverted allegations. I've heard that just a week ago in interviews she was rambling on about how happy she was & how much she loves her family & husband. Something real BIG must have happened for her to take this drastic and couragous step. Dancing With The Stars is the last thing she needs to be concerned with - her children and current situation is much more important and her decision to quite is very much justified. She is a confident beautiful woman, and from what I can see, she is also very strong. Time will heal her wounds, and although she thought she had found her Knight In Shining Armor years ago someday she will find it again. Hang in there Sara. He's just a jerk and he's the one that lost out - not you.
