Carrie Underwood is getting ready to release her third studio album Play On on Nov. 3, and her lead single, “Cowboy Casanova,” has already peaked to #11 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #6 on Hot Country Songs. But don’t expect to catch this successful country cutie pulling a Miley and “tweetin’ ’bout pimples.” The conservative Carrie is no fan of the web’s hottest micro-blogging media site. “It just sounds like organized stalking to me. I talk to my fan club members and I blog, and they know what’s going on,” the crooner scoffed when quizzed about her thoughts on Twitter in an interview with The Boot on Wednesday. “But as far as Twitter, I’ll be in a restaurant and I’ll get home and somebody tweeted and they talked about what I ordered and what I was wearing,” she added. “In some cases, that could be dangerous, because you don’t want everybody to know where you are every second of every day. It’s a wee bit of an invasion of privacy.”
