Spotted: Keith Urban in his birthday suit. Okay, not exactly in his birthday suit, per se, but the ‘For You’ singer was snapped in a teeny, tiny speedo on his 45th birthday on Friday (Oct. 26).

Taylor Swift was most definitely a good sport when she stopped by 'Ellen' for an interview last week. In addition to practically having a nervous breakdown during a conversation about her ex-boyfriends, Swift braved the host's haunted hallway for a Halloween scare.

There are plenty of reasons why people embrace vegetarianism. But while some people do it because they love animals, and others do it to maintain a healthy lifestyle, Carrie Underwood has an, er, interesting reason for not eating meat.

Laura Alaina has had a great year, but in light of her country music success, it’s pretty obvious that the 17-year-old star hasn’t lost sight of what’s important.

Meet Tommy. Tommy seems like a nice enough guy, though he admitted — on YouTube, no less — that he has no idea how to talk to girls. Hoping to turn around his luck, he leaned on the queen of love: Taylor Swift. In a funny series of first introductions gone wrong, Tommy uses lyrics from Swift’s hit songs to try to pick up girls.

Earlier this summer, when ‘American Idol’ execs were trying to nail down their judges panel, several names of country music stars were thrown into the mix.

Now, the in-your-face country star admits that he didn’t hesitate at all when he declined the offer.

Country music legend T.G. Sheppard has spent a lot of time on the road this year, but unfortunately, he’s laid up for the time being. After performing at the Reunion of Professional Entertainers (R.O.P.E.) awards on Thursday night (Oct. 11), the ‘Devil in the Bottle’ hitmaker was admitted to the hospital over the weekend.

As October 22 draws nearer, temperatures drop and the leaves change colors — to red, if you will — Taylor Swift is amping up promotion for her new album, appropriately titled ‘Red.’ The ‘Begin Again’ singer has been teasing new songs, rocking out performances and, naturally, posing for cameras, as shown here in a series of ‘Red’ promo pictures.

In 1962, Loretta Lynn was inducted into the Grand Ole Opry, just two years after her debut on the famous Nashville stage. On Tuesday night (Sept. 25), the iconic country singer celebrated the 50th anniversary of her induction with a commemorative show.
