Michigan laws ban people from smoking in local bars and restaurants. No matter how profile of a star celebrity you are, the people there seems to be quite serious about not wanting to breathe second hand smoke. Taste of Country (one of the best country music entertainment news websites around in our humble opinion) reports rocker Kid Rock, “learned that lesson the hard way last weekend after patrons at a Travis Tritt show at Andiamo Celebrity Showroom in Warren, Mich. complained about Rock puffing on his stogie.” So, the big question is this — what would they have done if the rocker had lit up a joint like Willie Nelson?

Did Scotty McCreery really spend the holidays with Lauren Alaina?
Since rocketing to the top two spots on American Idol for their country music performances, rumor mills reports have been swirling about singers Scotty McCreery and Lauren Alaina dating … and even marrying. McCreery joked that he would marry competitor and runner-up Alaina in 2022, and Alaina in a radio interview prodded him further, asking, “Did you tell someone we were getting married in 11 years?” McCreery offered a quiet affirmative, says website Touch of Country, but offered nothing further. But that was then and this is now. Might the two celebrity singers offer fans a true love story in 2012 after this holiday season? Keep reading…
Taylor Swift managed to be pet friendly and pro military in new video?
Go right ahead and accuse singer Taylor Swift of being catty. She’ll tell you she is — because she is crazy about her new cat Meredith. The pet friendly teen scene celeb is growing up to be a lovely young lady. Her new video was filmed with Friday Night Lights cutie-pie Zach Gilford playing with her kitty. “That Taylor Swift sure does know how to work the “awww!” effect into her music, and even more so in her sweet and wholesome music videos, with their varying themes on love: whether it be lost, won or rekindled…” writes MTV. The best part of the video? She supports the U.S. military. Keep reading…
Famous humanitarian Taylor Swift rocks Country Music Awards
All grown up and everywhere to go. Celebrity teen singing sensation Taylor Swift rocked the 2011 Country Music Awards singing, “This love is ours…” while perched on a homey stage set up to look like a living room. The green celeb and famous blonde received 5 awards nominations and did a great job performing live. The only blondes of the night at the CMA Awards who got more attention were the awards show co-host Carrie Underwood (a former American Idol star) and Muppets movie star Miss Piggy (who karate chopped CMA host Brad Paisley when he made a pass at her and suggested they went together like bacon and eggs).

CMT Awards: Shania Twain spills, Biebs and Keith Urban gives fans chills
2011 CMT Awards!
Shania Twain spills, Biebs and Keith Urban gives fan chills?
[Jun. 10]
The CMT Music Awards was a night to remember for sure with a list of stars so savory you could just sop ‘em up with a biscuit. The list included Big and Rich, Rascal Flatts, Lady Antebellum, The Band Perry, Lee Brice, Colt Ford, Hunter Hayes, the JaneDear Girls, Thompson Square and CMT’s Next Superstar finalists Matt Mason and Steven Clawson (just to name a few) for performances on the Nationwide Insurance stage. In addition, the company bestowed the Nationwide Insurance On Your Side Award to country music’s best new live act as determined by the fans. Nominees were Luke Bryan, Eric Church, Colt Ford, The Band Perry and Josh Thompson. NASCAR driver and Nationwide Insurance customer Dale Earnhardt Jr. revealed the winner, The Band Perry. The whole night was full of surprises for country music fans — and delighted anyone who already had a celebrity crush on Hollywood icons like Shania Twain, Gen Me star the Biebs, or Keith Urban. The 2011 CMT Music Awards show kicked off the night with a surprise duet between Wynonna Judd and Kid Rock but that’s not the only surprise the show had in store for us hard-core country fans. Shania Twain may have wanted to say, “I’m Outta Here!” after the fall she took coming on stage. One minute she was strutting her stuff and a second later she was sprawled, legs apart on the floor. Although Shania managed to pull herself up, the grimace on her face during her presentation left me with the impression that she really didn’t quite “Feel Like a Woman” after all that.

Sugarland band waived humanitarian LOVE flag on CMT?
[Jun. 9]
Sugarland band members Jennifer Nettles and Kristian Busch were honored by their loyal fans when they were named the recipients of this year’s Duo Video of the Year at the 2011 CMT Music Awards show last night in Nashville. But they really brought the crowd to their feet as they offered one of the most inspiring performances of the evening singing their anthem Stand Up. Nettles and Busch walked onto the stage carrying a large white flag and began their song as the crowd went wild. The harmonious duo continued to sing as they welcomed Tiffani and Lexi Gilbert, two young sisters from Joplin, Mo., whose home was destroyed during a recent tornado. Graphic photographs showing the devastation left behind loomed in the background as the sisters took center stage and Jennifer Nettles handed them the simple, hand-made, white flag with the single word “LOVE” written on it. The sisters waved the flag along with a smaller version while the audience waved similar flags in unison. It was an emotional and uplifting scene to say the least. And the message was loud and clear, “won’t you stand up and use your voice”.
