Carrie Underwood Throws the First Pitch at Blue Jays / Yankees Baseball Game
Carrie Underwood put aside her microphone over the weekend and picked up a baseball instead. The ‘Blown Away’ hitmaker stepped up to the pitcher’s mound at the Rogers Centre in Toronto, Canada to throw out the first pitch at the Toronto Blue Jays vs. New York Yankees baseball game on Sunday night (August 12).
Scotty McCreery Falls Off the Stage, Gets Pranked by Brad Paisley
When Scotty McCreery took the stage to open for Brad Paisley in Bethel, N.Y. over the weekend, he must not have paid close enough attention to the width of the walkway into the crowd. Either that, or maybe he was rocking out so hard during the final tune of his set that he lost his balance, because he accidentally tumbled off the stage mid-song.
Blake Shelton Turns Into a Muppet When ‘Sesame Street’ Spoofs ‘The Voice’
If you know anything at all about Blake Shelton, you’re probably aware that the country crooner makes a lot of jokes. But thanks to a spoof of ‘The Voice‘ on ‘Sesame Street,’ Shelton is playing the fool this time. The short clip is made for a young audience, but we think it’s pretty hilarious for adults, too. Seeing the ‘Over’ hitmaker as a Muppet is just what the doctor ordered.
Miranda Lambert Helps Pistol Annies’ Angaleena Presley ‘Say Yes to the Dress’ in Upcoming Episode
We imagine that aside from singing in a critically successful country music trio, one of the best parts of being in Pistol Annies is that each member of the group has two ‘sisters’ they can count on for anything. At least, that seems to be true for Angeleena Presley, who turned to bandmates Miranda Lambert and Ashley Monroe for help in picking a white dress for her recent wedding. The trio went dr
‘Nashville’ TV Show 2012 Commercial – What’s the Song?
With a name like ‘Nashville,’ ABC’s new fall drama about the country music industry in Music City is expected to have an awesome soundtrack. And a new promo leading up to the show’s debut didn’t let us down. Can you name the song — from a Tennessee-based group, of course — that’s playing in the background of the new ‘Nashville’ commercial?
Blake Shelton to Release ‘Cheers, It’s Christmas’ Album on October 2
Get those halls ready for a decking, because Blake Shelton‘s Christmas album has a release date! Appropriately titled ‘Cheers, It’s Christmas’ — presumably for the singer’s love of drinking — the holiday-themed release will be ready for your stocking pleasures on October 2.
Reba McEntire Thinks She’s Too Soft for an ‘American Idol’ Judge Spot
What do Brad Paisley, Toby Keith and Reba McEntire have in common? Aside from being some of country’s biggest names, the threesome have each recently been questioned about taking up a spot on the ‘American Idol’ judge’s panel. McEntire is the latest name to pop up in headlines, but she says — rather emphatically — that we won’t see her on ‘American Idol’ this fall.
Taylor Swift Tunes Into the Olympics, Cheers on Aly Raisman and Missy Franklin
Taylor Swift has been uncharacteristically quiet on Twitter lately. It probably has something to do with the fact that she’s busy preparing to release a follow-up album to 2010′s ‘Speak Now,’ doing promotions for Cover Girl and attending awards shows. But even the super busy country music starlet took time out of her schedule to watch the 2012 Olympics and tweet in support of the U.S. women’s gymn
Young Luke Bryan Fan Gets Hometown Tour From Singer’s Dad
A lot of country music lovers might claim to be Luke Bryan‘s biggest fan, but 11-year-old Holly Horrell from Illinois probably gets the prize. Instead of taking a trip to Disney World or the beach with her family this summer, Holly begged her parents to take her to Leesburg, Ga., the home of — you guessed it — her favorite singer.
Reba McEntire Dreams of Having a Role on ‘Downton Abbey’
We can’t imagine Reba McEntire speaking with anything but a sweet southern drawl. But as it turns out, the iconic country star would love to try out a British accent for producers of ‘Downton Abbey.’ McEntire recently spilled that snagging a role on the hit PBS drama would be a dream come true for her.
Pregnant Jennifer Nettles Shows Off Baby Bump at Sugarland Concert
Jennifer Nettles was showing off more than just her vocal range at Sugarland‘s West Palm Beach concert on Sunday night (July 29). The Grammy-winning singer revealed quite the baby bump when she walked on stage and grabbed a microphone. But if pregnancy has left Nettles feeling worn out, nobody at the show could tell — she and Kristian Bush, the other half of the duo, apparently put on an awesome s
