Posted on: February 1st, 2016 by brent

Luke Bryan is going in for another surgery on his elbow on Wednesday (February 3), but it’s minor.

Last March he had surgery on a tendon on the outside of his elbow, which he mentioned on Twitter after he was seen leaving the hospital in a cast. This time he’s giving fans a heads up.

There are big times ahead for Luke as he will co-host the ACM Awards in April with Dierks Bentley, and is nominated for Entertainer of the Year. Meanwhile, his new song “Home Alone Tonight,” which he sung with Karen Fairchild of Little Big Town, just hit No. 1, making it his 15th career chart-topper.

Posted on: February 1st, 2016 by brent

Carrie Underwood is a typical mom, when her child hits a milestone, she wants to tell everyone who will listen. She took the opportunity at her first stop on her ‘Storyteller’ tour in Jacksonville, FL on Saturday (January 30) to tell her audience her son Isaiah tried walking for the first time in their city.

“She was just leading to her next song and talking about what a big year it has been and how she thought that touring and making albums would be the best thing in her life, but she was wrong, because she had a baby,” a fan told ET.

The crowd erupted in cheers to celebrate the accomplishment — a perfectly memorable way to start her tour.

The countdown is on for Jana Kramer. Any day now, she is due to deliver her baby girl, according to her Celebrity Baby Blog at People.com, and she admits she’s getting antsy.

“Everyone warned me of this time, that the last few weeks will be the longest and it’s so true,” she shares. “I feel like the days are creeping by.” Lately, she’s been keeping busy doing anything that might bring on the start of labor, including eating pineapple, spicy food and working out with her trainer.

“My doctor says to keep doing more squats,” she tweeted. “If I do any more squats my legs are gonna fall off. #anyday.” She adds with a wink she’s also done “more fun stuff” that she can’t mention online that are said to bring on childbirth.

Tyler Farr Shelved, On Vocal Rest

Posted on: January 27th, 2016 by brent

Tyler Farr has been forced to cancel his tour with Lee Brice after being put on total vocal rest after undergoing surgery to remove a polyp on his vocal cords.

The ‘Life Off My Years Tour’ was announced in November of 2015 and is starting February 4 in Salisbury, MD, but in a post to Twitter on yesterday (January 27), Tyler broke the news that he won’t be able to make the dates.

Tyler, who is an operatically trained vocalist, says he first noticed he was having problems last year when he was touring with Jason Aldean. He was diagnosed with a polyp on his vocal cords after coming down with bronchitis to end 2015.

“This is the last thing I would’ve ever expected,” he said in a press release. “I sing hard, and I give it everything I have every night, but I really believed I was putting my training to work. After a No. 1 song, an awesome tour with Jason and getting engaged, this is not how I thought I was going to be winding up 2015.”
