Vince Gill has never been one to sit idly by when he sees injustice (his confrontation with Westboro Baptist Church, to name one). Apparently, WBC took offense to Gill's  divorce from his first wife in 1998 and 2000 remarriage to Amy Grant.

Now, siding with the women in Country Music, he is taking on Keith Hill's #SaladGate remarks.

Vince Gill likes his salad with an extra side of estrogen.

The country veteran is speaking out in favor of country music's female singer-songwriters and it's clear that he gives them more credit than radio consultant Keith Hill, who recently called them the “tomatoes” to their male counterpart's “lettuce.”

“I could go on and on and on and on and name you about 50 great female artists,” Gill told the Houston Press. “To me, they’re making much more … interesting records. They’re saying more things I’d prefer to hear, lyrically and song-wise, and that’s compelling.”

Mr. Hill needs to watch his back.  The Tomatoes (and some Lettuce, if Gill is any indication) will be gunning for him. Bet he'll think twice before he spouts off such nonsense.

Whatever Keith Hill thinks, female Country artists will always have a fan in Vince Gill.

Known for his collaborations with an array of esteemed country queens, including Reba McEntire and Alison Krauss, the Grammy winner has long held female musicians in high regard. The fact that they aren't in heavier rotation on radio, he says, is “one of the greatest tragedies in this stretch of life for me.”

Vince has a lot to say on the subject.

What do you think about Mr. Hill's opinion?  Leave us a comment and let us know.
