“Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story” is coming to the Hallmark Channel later this month, and the trailer was just released.
You ready for some Kansas City Cheese?
Here ya go:
Ok, so I am not a fan of the cheesy holiday movies that so many women seem to love, and I’m clearly in the minority, as Hallmark and Lifetime have a zillion new ones every year, and someone has to watch them, or they would make them, right?
But this being Kansas City and Chiefs-centric, I may have to suffer through it in honor of one of my favorite cities ever.
To be fair, it looks better than the Travis Kelce/Taylor Swift inspired movie tha is coming to Lifetime this month, so there’s that.
Plus, Donna Kelce makes an appearance, so it can’t be all bad if Mama Kelce is involved, right?
“Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story” will air on the Hallmark Channel starting November 30th.
His breakout hit “Tipsy” is spending it’s 17th week at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 this week, which is freaking HUGE. And while he is riding that impressive wave, he dropped a much more serious song called “Good News”, and it’s really, really good.
Here’s the lyrics:
“Man, what a hell of a year it’s been
Keep on bluffin’, but I just can’t win
Drop my songs, but they learn to swim
Man, what a hell of a year it’s been
Head on a battle, but my heart in a cage
Yeah, it’s gettin’ harder to act my age
Play a sad song on a tiny violin
For the man at the bar confessin’ his sins
I need some good news
Sittin’ here, sippin’ on cold truth
Nobody know what I’m goin’ through
But the devil wouldn’t walk in my shoes
Wish someone told me
Livin’ this life would be lonely
Tryna get away from the old me
Still stuck singin’ these blues
All I really need is a little good news
Love keeps knockin’, but I just stay home
I ain’t pickin’ no flowers from the seeds that I’ve sown
They say it gets darker when you’re coverin’ them doors
Still lookin’ for the right at the end of my wrongs
At the end of my wrongs
I need some good news
Sittin’ here, sippin’ on cold truth
Nobody know what I’m goin’ through
But the devil wouldn’t walk in my shoes
Wish someone told me
Livin’ this life would be lonely
Tryna get away from the old me
Still stuck singin’ these blues
All I really need is a little good news
Is a little good news
I need some good news
Sittin’ here, sippin’ on cold truth
Nobody know what I’m goin’ through
But the devil wouldn’t walk in my shoes
Wish someone told me
Livin’ this life would be lonely
Tryna get away from the old me
Still stuck singin’ these blues
All I really need is a little good news
Ooh, oh
Ooh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
All I really need is a little
Something bring me back to the middle
All I really need is a little good news”
It has been another crazy year, and I think this will resonate with many.
This is Shaboozey’s first new release since his album “Where I’ve Been Isn’t Where I’m Going”, which means perhaps a new album is in the works?
Brooks and Dunn released their “Reboot 2” album this morning, which is some of their biggest hits reimagined by today’s biggest Country stars.
One standout is their version of their classic “Neon Moon” with Morgan Wallen.
It’s a cool, modern take on one of my favorite Country songs of all time:
Lets be real- nothing can compare to the original. But it’s a pretty solid version.
Add Morgan Wallen to anyting these days, and you’ve got an automatic win.
However, THIS is my favorite version of the song, which features the incredible Kacey Musgraves:
That one never gets old.

Taking an already perfect song and making it even more perfect with her “Kellyoke” segment on “The Kelly Clarkson” show.
The song is on the “A Star is Born” soundtrack, and is sung by Lady Gaga. I loved it as soon as I heard it in the theater, and had to add it to my playlist.
Well, Kelly covered it today, and that high note at the end… chillllssss….
Seriously, how gorgeous is that?
I didn’t think anyone could do it better than Gaga, but Kelly went and made it her own.
Can we PLEASE get a “Kellyoke: Greatest Hits” album?
As you probably are well aware of by now, the “Wicked” movie- based on the smash Broadway musical “Wicked”- comes out next Friday.
Just seeing the previews get my musical theater-loving heart super giddy, and now that we have audio of Ariana Grande as Galinda performing “Popular”, well, it’s everyhting I had hoped for:
LOVVEEEE!
For reference, here is the original Galinda performing “Popular” portrayed by Kristen Chenoweth:
Pretty spot on, right?
I honestly prefer Ariana Grande’s musical theater chops as opposed to her Pop Music. I think this genre definitely shows off her true talent, instead of songs like “Side to Side” and “Seven Rings”.
“Wicked” startting Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo hits theaters next Friday, November 22nd, and you can get more info at http://WickedMovie.com
One of the best parts of the decade- aside from the music and fashion- is the fact that MTV was actually showing music videos non-stop, and it was absolutely glorious.
As a kid, and then as a teen, I would spend hours taking in the magic of the art that is the music video. I was tranfixed, really. To this day, I still love watching them, and ca, thanks to YouTube.
One of my favorite websites, ultimatelassicrock.com, compiled a list of the 30 best music videos of the decade… see if you agree!
I can’t dance. Like, at all. So, I’m always really impressed by those who can.
This video is making the internet rounds featuring a couple- Lan and Chris Donais- who married back in August. Like many couples, they had a choreographed First Dance at their wedding, but theirs went above and beyond.
You know the iconic dance scene from “Dirty Dancing” featuring Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey?
Yeah, they did THAT dance, and completely NAILED the whole thing:
I am seriously impressed by this- they got the lift and all!
Even more impressive? Neither are dancers. They hired a coach to help them learn and execute the dance, and it’s clear their hard work paid off.
I have always felt that a choreographed dance at your wedding just adds to the pressure, but then again, that’s probably because I can’t dance. Even with a coach, it would end badly.
Kudos to this adorable couple for pulling it off flawlessly, and I wish them all the best in their marriage.
It got off to one heck of a start, that’s for sure!
Oh, and just to take a trip down memory lane… here’s the original!:
You know I love me some Kelly Clarkson- easily one of the best vocalists of our generation.
She has this segment on her talk show, “The Kelly Clarkson Show”, called “Kellyoke” where she covers a different song every day, and what I love is not just how she makes every song her own with her perfect vocals, but also how random her song choices are.
Case in point, her version of Willie Nelson’s “Roll Me Up and Smoke Me When I Die”:
Seriously, a “Best of Kellyoke” album needs to happen.
There is literally nothing she can’t sing, and elevate it from the original.
It’s the day after the Presidential Election, and I’m not going to get politcal at all. We have to much of it on social media, so I’m here to throw out some distractions, like the latest mash-up from one of my favorite content creators “There, I Ruined It”.
Dolly Parton’s “Jolene” mashed with Eurythmics “Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This):
First off, I’m just gonna come out and say that I am NOT a fan of cheesy holiday movies, no matter what channel they are on.
I know, I know… I’m a traitor to my gender over here.
But, being a Kansas City Chiefs fan and a music lover, I had to check out the trailer for the upcoming Lifetime Holiday movie based on the highly publicized Taylor Swift/Travis Kelce relationship.
The movie is called “Christmas in the Spotlight”, and the offical trailer was released this past week:
Yep. Total cheesefest.
But with the female obsession of these genre of film, and the hype that still surrounds the Swift/Kelce relationship, you know it’s going to be a smash.
“Christmas in the Spotlight” debuts November 23rd on Lifetime.
