I think most of it has to do with the fact that Kellie IS different from the other girls. I think it's as simple as them letting Kellie be herself now. She's said that she's able to sing about things now, that she (or BNA?) was afraid to sing about on STG. I think she felt the pressure to be the "cute, funny girl" that people saw on AI. And was afraid to let people see the more serious and darker sides to her. In fact, she's said so herself. It's not that she's abandoning the "cute, funny girl". That's still very much a part of her. But there's more to her than that.

Same with Miranda Lambert. Look how completely different she comes across on her new album than she did on her first. I don't think it was a deliberate thing with her either.

The only thing I think that was deliberate was her cutting her hair short. She's mentioned before that she did it to distinguish herself from the countless long, blond-haired country singers.
