Eva Longoria won’t do sexy photo shoots anymore because her six-year-old son will see them someday. Quote, “I think about whether he’d be proud of something or might be embarrassed.”
Morgan Wallen finally spoke about his abrupt exit from “Saturday Night Live” last month. Usually the cast members, the host, and the musical guest all mill around after the show while the credits were rolling . . . but NOT Morgan. He left right away and then caused a bit of a stir when he posted “Get me to God’s country” from the tarmac. Morgan recently did an interview where he talked about what happened that night. Morgan said, “ I was ready to go home, I had been there all week.” And that’s the whole story, folks. The dude was just sick of New York City. That’s pretty relatable.
The ACMs just went down last week, so it’s time for their rival CMAs to put out a press release! The Country Music Association just announced the date and time of the 59th Annual Country Music Awards. The CMAs will go down on November 19th at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena . . . and it’ll air live on ABC starting at 8:00 p.m. No host has been announced for this year. Last year it was Luke Bryan, Peyton Manning, and Lainey Wilson. The eligibility period to win a 2025 CMA goes from July 1st, 2024 to June 30th, 2025 . . . so there’s plenty of time to release a winning country song. And then the three-round voting cycle will run from July 7th to October 29th.
Miley Cyrus is in the news for the advice she gave fans during the listening party for her new album in New York last week. Actually, it was advice she REPEATED. She said the best piece of advice she’s ever gotten came from her godmother Dolly Parton. “You do you, and I’ll do me. And together, we’ll be us.” In other words, be yourself and let everyone else do the same. The “us” is how we coexist even when we’re different.
George Strait turns 73 this Sunday, but don’t expect him to stop touring. At a show in Philly on Saturday, he took a minute to talk about how much he loves playing live, and how long he thinks he’ll keep doing it. He said he thinks he might have “five good years” left to keep touring. So, that means he’d be 78 when he calls it quits. He also laughed at how lucky he’s been so far though, and how LONG he’s been at it. He said he’s been up on stage for around FIFTY years now and still loves it as much as much ever. His first studio album “Strait Country” came out 44 years ago in 1981. But he’s been playing shows since he was in the Army in the early ’70s. So, OVER 50 years.
