Lainey Wilson’s new album “Bell Bottom Country” is out tomorrow. She says the title means “country with a flare.” Her team put brightly-colored bell bottoms on a “bunch of naked statues” located at Nashville’s Music Row Roundabout. She shared a video of herself driving around the sculpture and enjoying the view. She said, “Y’all ain’t gonna believe this. I gotta show you what we did. Look at this. We got bellbottoms on the statues. Can y’all believe that? Oh my gosh, check it out. This is incredible. [That’s] some big ol’ bell bottoms.”
Jason Aldean remembers the time Tim McGraw hijacked his ear monitor, while he was on stage TRYING to perform. “He [got] the microphone where my ear monitor guy is, where he talks to us in our ears. Tim got ahold of that. “I’m trying to sing and all the sudden, I hear somebody talking or singing a different song, and I’m trying to hear my band and all I can hear is McGraw . . . like right in the middle of my show. [And] he’s singing like ‘Indian Outlaw’.” Obviously Jason was confused, until he saw the culprit. Quote, “I look over and he’s laughing on the side stage.”
Miranda Lambert released a perfume called Velvet Rodeo, inspired by her song “Actin’ Up” and is “created for all the strong-spirited, take no prisoner, queen of hearts.” It’s warm and sultry with notes of jasmine, spicy violet iris, and vanilla suede. And comes in a pink vintage-inspired bottle with a tassel atomizer.
Earlier this month, Morgan Wallen flew a five-year-old girl named Gracie to his headlining show in Texas on October 8th. Gracie is fighting leukemia, and she’s a HUGE fan. Morgan even took the time to meet with her and her family, and the video of their meet-up is trending on TikTok.
Someone in another country posted a smart-allecky question on Reddit the other day, asking Americans to name something GOOD about the U.S.A. One of the top responses with the most likes so far is . . . Dolly Parton. Someone wrote, “Dolly Parton, obviously,” and thousands of people have liked it. Only a few answers received more upvotes than that. They include America’s 63 National Parks . . . the over 9,000 public libraries we have . . . the diversity of the people, and the scenery . . . and the fact that most restaurants give out free ice water, which isn’t always the case in other countries. It’s a little weird that Dolly is currently trailing ICE WATER by a few thousand votes. But sure, water’s important, I guess.
