Miranda Lambert, Jo Dee Messina, and Luke Bryan were among several celebs who visited the track, and Mr. Luke Bryan himself gave quite the show at the Friday night Unbridled Eve Gala.
Speaking of Luke, word on the street is he is following the footsteps of several other country musicians who have recently collaborated with a hip-hop rapper, and is working with rapper T. Pain as we speak. Taylor Swift and B.o.B., Jason Aldean and Ludacris, and Brad Paisley and L.L. Cool J have released some amazing, as well as some controversial ballads as of late- so curiosity has me wondering exactly what type of music we will be seeing/hearing as a result of Luke and T... It's a mind boggling experiment that can go either way....
In legal news, we are still following Jason Aldean and his pricey divorce for his cheatin' ways (do we hear a new hit song here?) and it seems other than his confirmation of hosting the CMT awards in June, he's managed to stay under the radar.
Being slapped with a lawsuit however, is two of our favorites Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood- as well as the writers for their 2011 hit "Remind me". It seems a woman in Nashville by the name Amy Bowen, stage name of Lizza Conner (I thought only strippers had stage names??) is claiming she performed this same song back in 2007 and had it copyrighted in 2008. Brad and Carries legal team have not released any statements, but they don't seem to be backing down from this $10 million dollars in damages suit. Seriously lady? In a matter of 5 years,how exactly could you have lost $10 million dollars, or had anything other than your ego damaged? Some people will do anything for a bit of fame and some money in the bank.
Our angry bird of the day award is being handed to Taylor Swift, who seems to have been given a healthy dose of her own medicine in the new One Direction Behind the Scenes "Tell all". It's ok for our red lipped, long legged beauty queen to poke fun at her exes, dish their drama, and call them out in a song- but when Harry Styles refers to Ms. Swift as a "pain in the a**", it seems to have her biting at the bit to get revenge. Ok, maybe not "revenge" as in mean girl or a Miranda Lambert s broken heart type revenge- but I see a new song in the making- something like "you called me a pain the a**, from your little house of glass- but I'm sitting in my house burnin' your pictures to ash, you know- the one I paid for with 17 million cash". Keep an eye out...
Speaking of Miranda Lambert, her broken heart, and the rumor mill... It seems yesterdays news of Blake and his wandering eye, is now news of a baby on the way. Luckily for us, both stories are a load of "you know what" and our favorite country couple shared quite the laugh via twitter about their most recent issues circulating the web. Chick is in a song that talks about burning your house down, and a group that calls themselves "Pistol Annie's". You'd have to be back-asswards to cheat on that! The only romance Blake has going on other than Miranda is his Bromance with Adam Levine on The Voice. Let me tell you- I can't sing worth a darn, but boy would I give anything to have Adam Levine casually turn around in a chair that lights up and says "I WANT YOU". Um.. yes...
Alongside televisions new favorite show The Voice, we see varied reviews on this season of American Idol. New judge Nicki Minaj has upset quite a few people, and I've got to say I have a REALLY hard time watching her speak. Its like watching a parrot with dyslexia try to read Japanese. Fo-real. But, her fellow judge and Country Musics very own Keith Urban seems to be a fan favorite, being voted by Zimbio readers as the "Best American Idol Judge Ever". That's quite an award- at least from the 1,200 readers who took the time to vote.
If you are still a dedicated fan of this seasons American Idol though, make sure to purchase your tickets for the idol tour, when East Tennessee's own Janelle Arthur will be performing August 6, 2013 at the Thompson-Boling Arena! Also coming to K-town is Darius Rucker with Rodney Atkins and Jana Kramer, Sunday May 19th at the Knoxville Civic Auditorium and Coliseum, and Blake Sheltons 'Ten Times Crazier 2013 Tour' Friday September 27 at the Thompson-Boling Arena, with guests Easton Corbin and Jana Kramer. Can we say "amazing"? Because those show are guaranteed to be Ah-Mazing.
And Lastly, some birthday love goes out to Ms. Tammy Wynette who would have been 71 today.
Catch up with you soon!
xx Jamie
