In Nashville for the CMA Music Festival, superstar Carrie Underwood seemed relaxed, happy and at the top of her game. But her mood changed when asked if she'd like to team up with Jessica Simpson, in town to promote her new country single. "No," Carrie told In Touch on June 6, rolling her eyes. "Not going to happen." Earlier reports have claimed that Jessica became upset when she learned that her boyfriend, Tony Romo, 28, was still emailing and text messaging Carrie, whom he had dated in 2007.

"Jessica is worried that Tony still has feelings for Carrie,” an insider says. “She doesn’t want them talking.” It also didn’t help that the American Idol winner is her rival in the music business. “Carrie has the career that Jessica wants,” her pal explains.


But the weekly entertainment magazine reports that from the way things looked at the festival, Carrie, 25, is not a big fan of Jessica’s, either. During the festival, which took place June 5-8, the tow women seemed to avoid each other - even though organizers were intent on getting them together.

“They wanted Jess to introduce Carrie, of have them attend a charity event together, or maybe even do a duet to put the rumors to rest about the feud.,” a CMA insider explains. “But everything that was thrown out there was rebuffed.”
