Death Metal Miss Chile

There’s cool, and then there’s Ignacia Fernandez cool.

Ignacia just won the internet’s hearts with her talent performance at the Miss Chile World Competition over the weekend.

Not only is she Victoria’s Secret Model gorgeous, but she’s got Death Metal pipes for days.

I gotta say, I did NOT see this one coming:

Ok, that’s cool as hell.

I’m not a fan of Death Metal, but now if she’s singing it?

Ok.

Take my money.

Honestly, I just love the juxtaposition of a Chilean Model Babe singing like some angry 34-year-old fresh out of prison I-hate-my-dad- guy trying to rock out in his best friend’s basement before getting arrested for the 23rd time.

You go, Ignacia!

Check out more of her here: https://www.instagram.com/ignacia.fdez/

I may just have a legit new girl crush…

Kelsea Ballerini “I Sit in Parks”

Kelsea Ballerini released one heck of a new song this past Friday- it’s called “I Sit in Parks”, and I really feel like it’s one of her best yet.

It’s the plight of the modern woman:


That song hits different, right?

Very honest and vulnerable… and having had a child later in life (at 38) after establishing my career, I definitely relate to the subject. Sure, my career isn’t an iota as to what Kelsea’s career is, but still, I get it.

It’s something that so many women struggle with internally… do you get married and have kids first? Or work to fulfill your potential in the working world? Or both?

Both is hard, but it can be done. I’m proof of that.

Lord, it’s a lot of juggling and constantly restructuring, yet extremely fulfilling at the same time.

I hope Kelsea- and every woman in this situation- can find the happiness they long for.

That being said, Kelsea has really upped her game as a songwriter this past decade, and I can’t wait to hear more from her.

Luckily, that’s not a long wait… her new EP “Mount Pleasant” drops this Friday, November 14th.

“Michael” Official Trailer

This looks like it will be pretty dang good.

The highly anticipated Michael Jackson biopic simply called “Michael” has been pushed back months due to production taking longer than expected, but it seems like it may be worth the wait.

The first official trailer dropped yesterday, and from that minute of footage, it seems promising:


I’m glad Michael’s nephew Jafar Jackson is portraying him… definitely gives it some authenticity.

Biopics are hard, as it’s asking a lot of any actor to re-create an icon on screen, but this might work.

We’ll have to wait until April 24th, 2026 to find out.

Benson Boone and Brian May Perform “Bohemian Rhapsody/Beautiful Things:

This. Is. Awesome.

Benson Boone- easily one of the most talented new artists on the scene right now- was joined once again by Brian May, the iconic guitarist of Queen, in London this week.

They performed “Bohemian Rhapsody” at Coachella together earlier this year, and they performed that song right into Benson Boone’s massive 2024 hit “Beautiful Things”, and Brian spiced up the end with a rocking guitar solo, because, it’s Brian Freaking May:

 

Now, THAT was cool.

Benson Boone is like a straight Freddie Mercury with killer abs, am I right?

In case you missed their Coachella performance from a few months back, here ya go:


Also, is it weird that I still have a bit of a crush on Brian May?

Nah, didn’t think so.

Also, if Adam Lambert ever leaves Queen, Benson would be the perfect choice as a frontman, right?

Very, VERY few vocalists could pull that off, but I believe Benson easily could.

A girl can dream, right?

“The Fate of Ophelia” Halloween Light Show

Ok, I know Halloween was so two days ago, but I just now saw this and wanted to share.

Hillyard Light Shows put on a pretty epic “The Fate of Opheila” themed Halloween light show, which even features the music video (which may be one of the best videos of all time).

Check it out below:

Ok, that’s pretty awesome.

Although, I’m sure the neighbors hate it.

Also, I had to look up what one of these costs… the average light show can be in the thousands, and that’s not including the electric bill.

Guess I’ll just live vicariously through those who want to drop that much dough on a light show, because it will never be me.

Glam Metal Version of “Rhinestone Cowboy”

Ok, in instances like this, I am totally down for AI.

A creator called “Dafaq Was That?” just put out a version of Glen Campbell’s “Rhinestone Cowboy” in a glam metal style.

You ready?


You have to admit, that was pretty damn cool.

Of course, I love both Classic Country and Glam Metal, so, of course you know I’m down.

I’ll be rocking out to this all week.

Country KISS!

Did you know that KISS once recorded a Country and Western song?

Me either.

Apparently, back in 1975, KISS recorded a Country/Western song called “Mistake”, and they included it on their “Dressed to Kill” 50th Anniversary Box Set.

It’s not horrible, either:

Yeah, that’s actually pretty damn cool. I’m glad they put it on their new box set.

Also, here’s Paul Stanley performing an acoustic version on the KISS Cruise a decade ago:


The “Dressed to Kill” 50th Anniversary Super Deluxe box set is available now on major streaming services, with CD and vinyl editions available for pre-order on the official Kiss website.

Megan Moroney “Beautiful Things”

Megan Moroney is one of the hottest rising stars in Country Music right now, and she is keeping that momentum up with a gorgeous new song called “Beautiful Things”:

I feel like that’s a song most people can relate to.

I know I certainly can… I was pretty heavily bullied at school growing up, then in college, and heck, even as an adult it can happen in the workplace or, anywhere, really.

This song serves as a reminder that you’re a rockstar, and really, those that are picking on you, well, that’s just a reflection on THEM.

Not you.

And to anyone currently being bullied… it DOES get better.

Trust me.

 

That being said, “Beautiful Things” is just a taste of what’s to come with Megan’s new album, which is almost finished.

In the meantime, you can enjoy her latest release- a live album from her “Am I Ok?” tour.

Morgan Wallen “20 Cigarettes” Music Video

Morgan Wallen just released his new single “20 Cigarettes” to Country Radio, and just released a pretty cool video to go along with it:


Yes, Morgan smoked all 20 cigarettes for the video. I’m sure his lungs are so happy just now.

Also, why are his songs so damn catchy?

Not exactly the most brilliant writing, but the hooks and the content… it does resonate with me, being a small-town girl from West Tennessee.

Who hasn’t had a few beer bottles looking ash trays before?

Morgan Wallen is still riding high off of the mega-success of his latest album “I’m the Problem”, and is teasing some things for 2026.

Do I smell another tour?

Stay tuned…

Was Chris Young Wasted on Stage?

Hey, it happens to the best of us.

Chris Young- one of my favorite voices in Country Music- most likely had a few too many prior to taking the stage at “Boots in the Park” in Tucson, AZ over the weekend.

A couple of videos have gone viral on Tik Tok of his performances, and… yeah. Definitely not the live caliber that I expected:

@scdowdy87 When you pay over a hundred dollars to see @Chris Young and he’s drunkedy drunk drunk. WOW #bootsinthepark #tornupcountry #ChrisYoungRuinedMyBirthday@Boots In The Park ♬ original sound – SCDOWDY


And another…

@phebeflagstaffrealtor #bootsinthepark #chrisyoung ♬ original sound – Phebe

Jeepers.

It’s been reported that people were leaving the show early, and I totally get why. Fans are accusing him of being way too drunk to perform, and a few are saying that it’s sound issues.

Honestly, sounds more like a few too many tequila shots to me.

Chris Young has yet to address the issue.

I honestly can’t judge, as when I used to sing in cover bands in Memphis in my early twenties, I have had a few boozy performances myself. I’m just glad social media wasn’t a big thing at the time, and that smartphones didn’t exist.

 

Thank you Baby Jesus for that.

 

Then again, people weren’t shelling out mega-bucks to see me perform. And there was never a cover… so it IS a little different.

I feel like if your fans are paying to see you perform, keep it together for that hour/hour and-a-half that you’re on stage.

Hopefully this is a one-off for Chris, and that he keeps the Whisky shots till after the show.

 

Still… one of my favorite voices for sure… and I hope this is just a bad night.

It happens!
