No, it doesn't stand for World Championship Wrestling or the Walleye Conservation Workshop...it is my first ever, public & documented Woman Crush Wednesday! I'm guilty as charged for being a radio guy who makes things rhyme for effect...New Music Monday, #1 Wednesday, Feel Good Fridays...

And the newest weekly event to pop up in culture is #WomanCrushWednesday. I blame those pesky #hashtags for making this an official subject for the 2010s. Remember when all this was just called guy talk? I really have no serious problem with it I guess, considering I (and most men on earth!) have had celebrity crushes. For me, my fantasy country loves have changed from time to time, as they eventually go "off the market" :(

Now the latest to capture my attention is a 30-year-old Top 10 American Idol finalist from the Pacific Northwest. Kristy Lee Cook was born in Seattle Washington (where I moved here from) but raised in Selma, Oregon near the famous Redwoods (just across the border from my CA hometown). She's a true country girl (hot) and a barrel racer (even hotter). As far as American Idol girls go, Katharine & Carrie are very attractive...but Kristy's the real deal.

Who knows, maybe I'll get to meet her in April at the ACM's in Dallas? Or she's more than welcome to come to the Upper Midwest until then! Her latest single, Lookin' For a Cowgirl, was released to radio about a month ago:

And it's also a #TimeWarpWednesday...so, let's go back to Hollywood 6 1/2 years ago:

And if I'm acting a lil overboard with this, don't worry ladies...#ManCrushMonday is only 5 days away :D
