Miley Cyrus Dolly Parton Tribute

This past weekend, Miley Cyrus performed for the first time since 2022, taking the stage for two nights at The Hollywood Bowl, and she did a sweet tribute to her Godmother, the late, great Dolly Parton, who sadly passed away this past August.

First she told a pretty cool story involving her experience with Dolly at the Hollywood Bowl:

She then followed up her story by performing “Jolene”:

Soooo good.

Miley is one of those artists who has definitely grown on me these past few years, and has really proven herself as an incredible talent.

Also, rumors are swirling that she could be the next Super Bowl Half-Time Show performer…

I’d totally be down with that.

Lainey Wilson “Kinda Love It”

Lainey Wilson just dropped a new song inspired by her husband Devlin “Duck” Hodges called “Kinda Love It” and I kind of do, too!

Lainey and “Duck” got married earlier this year, and they just seem like the funnest couple ever. He reminds me so much of my own husband, especially with the outdoors obsession, and I can totally relate to the song AND the video.

Check it out below:

How fun are they?

I can tell you, that’s the real love right there.

What I’m wondering is, with this new song, is Lainey planning a new album?

I thinking maybe, as tomorrow is her last concert that I see on her calendar until May…https://www.laineywilson.com/tour

Stay tuned!

Miranda Lambert and Ella Langley “Snakeskin Boots”

I’ve been waiting for this album for months, and it’s finally here!

Miranda Lambert released her latest album “Crisco”, as she’s officially entered her “Country Disco” era, and it did NOT disappoint.

I mean, it’s Miranda.

She never does.

She teamed up with her friend and songwriting partner Ella Langley for a collab called “Snakeskin Boots”, and it’s so damn fun:

You can’t go wrong with Miranda and Ella.

They co-wrote “Choosin’ Texas” after all, which is spending a 24th week at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100- more weeks than any other song in history.

So, why not keep that magic going?

Check out “Crisco” available everywhere now.

Dolly Parton Final Commercial

Well, this is… bittersweet.

First off, it’s National Coffee Day, and in conjunction with the holiday, Dolly Parton’s team released her “Cup of Ambition” coffee line nationwide, as well as it’s commercial.

It just so happened to be Dolly’s final commercial ever, as it was filmed a month prior to her passing.

Ugh, that hurts.

Watching that commercial- knowing now that she was battling cancer at the time- hits hard.

But you have to hand it to Dolly for continuing to work until the very end.

We will always love you, Dolly!

Lainey Wilson “Phone, Keys, Wallet” Music Video

I’m not sure if this is creepy, hilarious or both.

Ok, Imma just go with both.

Lainey Wilson just released the music video for her latest hit song “Phone, Keys, Wallet”, and I was NOT expecting this.

Lainey is pretty much decapitated the entire time.

I mean, it’s creative, if nothing else?


Ok, I laughed a lot, but I’m still creeped out.

Disembodied heads are always a no for me.

But, again, props for creativity, and I do love Lainey’s sense of humor and her ability to not take herself seriously.

Maybe headless Lainey Wilson Halloween costumes will be hot this year?

George Strait Wrangler Ad

Well, damn George.

Country LEGEND George Strait just did a new ad for Wrangler, and at 74, it’s safe to say that The King of Country still has it going on.

Enjoy:

First off, I’m a huge fan of both George and Wrangler… I have a ton of their Willow Riding jeans.

Also, I love that George is the real deal. He is a rancher, grew up ranching, and is the perfect person to represent the brand, as he has done for decades.

For instance, his ad from 1995:

Some things are just timeless… like Wranglers and George Strait.

Long Live the KING!

Miranda Lambert “Two Things Can Be True”

I am ALWAYS here for new Miranda Lambert.

She’s getting us ready for her upcoming “Country-Disco” era with her new album “Crisco”, which comes out October 2nd, and she just released a perfect Country heartbreaker with “Two Things Can Be True”.

Getting alllll the Patsy Cline vibes with this one:


YESSSSSSSSSS.

The song is written by Miranda, Jesse Frasure, Natalie Hemby, Ilya Toshinskiy and her husband, Brendan McLoughlin – who was super rude to me at a concert of her last September.

But whatever. I don’t care about him. Just the fact that Miranda Lambert is a certified Country baddie, and I absolutely cannot wait for her new album.

Also, I’m sure that you probably are aware the she co-wrote the MASSIVE hit “Choosing Texas” with Ella Langley, right?

One hell of a year so far, and this album is shaping up to be damn good, like pretty much everything that she does.

The Heartbreakers Featuring Chris Stapleton at The Americana Awards!

Last night, it was “The Americana Awards” at The Ryman in Nashville, and what a great surprise… The Heartbreakers with Chris Stapleton on the vocals.

Yes, The Heartbreakers as in Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.

The Heartbreakers received the Americana Music Association’s Lifetime Achievement Award last night, and what a way to celebrate.

It was their first reunion since Tom’s passing in 2017, and who better to take on the vocals than Chris Freaking Stapleton?

Enjoy:


Damn, damn, damn.

As a HUGE Tom Petty fan and a big fan of Chris Stapleton, this has me all kinds of happy.

I know Chris is a totally different vocalist than Tom Petty was, but it’s still awesome to see.

Check out the full show below:

Lainey Wilson Performing “Amazing Grace” for the 9/11 25th Anniversary Tribute.

This past Friday was the 25th anniversary of the attacks on 9/11.

Still hard to wrap my mind around the fact that it has been that long.

To honor and remember those who we lost on that terrible day, there was no shortage of beautiful tributes.

My personal favorite so far?

Country megastar Lainey Wilson’s performance of “Amazing Grace” for the ABC and the 9/11 Memorial & Museums’ “Tribute in Light”.

Just, wow.


Absolutely stunning.

Lainey’s voice is so pure and truly Country, and she did a beautiful job. I love that she didn’t try to overdo it, as so many vocalists seem to do.

This performance isn’t about showing off, after all, but about paying tribute to our country and those who lost their lives and loved ones 25 years ago.

If you’d like to see the tribute in it’s entirety, you can now stream “9/11 Tribute in Light” on Disney + and Hulu.

God Bless America.

Carrie Underwood Covering Limp Bizkit’s “Break Stuff”!

Ok, I did NOT see this one coming.

Carrie Underwood covering Limp Bizkit?

Really?

Now, I know the woman can ROCK- I mean, she opened up for Guns N’ Roses a few years back, and she really slayed it. And she’s also a Heavy Metal fan, which I think is awesome.

I just didn’t see her trying to cover Limp Bizkit, but props for thinking outside the cover song box!

Here she is at the Velocity Festival in Dyersville, Iowa, over the weekend:
at the Velocity Festival in Dyersville, Iowa, over the weekend.

Well, alrighty then…

She also went on to perform songs from Linkin Park, Collective Soul, and Papa Roach, but her take on Limp Bizkit is what’s getting the most attention.

I love how she cut out the curse words… because, well, Carrie.

I think it would have been cooler to cover “Nookie”…

Anyhow, the performance is getting mixed reactions, but I think it’s fun.

I mean, good for her for doing something different.

Also, I want her legs…
