Lauren Alaina just posted a hilarious video where Ashley Cooke is watching her pump breast milk for the first time. At first, Ashley seemed bewildered.

Gwen was raised in Anaheim, California.

Over the weekend, Carrie Underwood quietly walked into Rolling Hills Community Church in Nashville and surprised the congregation. During the church’s annual Sounds of Christmas concert, Carrie took the stage to sing “O Holy Night” and “All Is Well”. This is not the first time she has done this. Carrie likes to drop in randomly on her church and sing for them. Her Christmas album “My Gift” came out in 2020 and features original songs . . . a duet with John Legend on “Hallelujah” . . . and a sweet appearance from her son Isaiah on “The Little Drummer Boy”. And of course, she sounded incredible. Imagine going to church and getting a private Carrie Underwood Christmas concert. Must be nice!

We are grateful for the outpouring of condolences, kindness, and support we have received not only from family and friends but people from all walks of life. “We now ask for respect and privacy, for speculation to be tempered with compassion and humanity, and for our parents to be remembered for the incredible lives they lived and the love they gave.” Here are more updates on the tragedy:
