Country music star Keith Urban was a judge when the show went away… So obviously, it only makes sense that another country superstar would join Katy Perry on the panel, right?
With American Idol set to premiere March 2018 on ABC, the show needed to start locking in judges and picking air times. Sundays and Mondays are the days the revived show is said to be airing, and the search for judges is almost locked in too.
Luke Bryan is going to be the second judge on next year’s season of American Idol. Luke’s schedule is set to be open for American Idol auditions and hopefully this will take things to a new level in the upcoming auditions.
He will be joining Katy Perry and the returning show host Ryan Seacrest. The third and final spot has not been filled yet.
Luke Bryan was just trying to catch a beer. Instead, his foot the stage and he fell on his back.
Well there goes the first fall of the #KillTheLightsTour
Cole Swindell and Luke Bryan personal during a game of “Never Have I Ever” and told fans some things they may otherwise not have shared. At the recent Crash My Playa concert they took turns asking each other questions, which led to some uncomfortable truths.
When asked if he’d ever peed in a pool, Luke came right and said, often. “I’ve peed in the pool. I pee in my hot tub. That’s what chlorine’s for.”
As for Cole, he admitted to trying a Baywatch-style run on the beach at last year’s Crash My Playa show with Florida Georgia Line, and it didn’t go like he pictured.

Little Big Town took home the award for Best Country Duo/Group Performance for “Girl Crush” at the 2016 Grammy Awards this afternoon (February 15), putting a wrap on the best year of their career.
For the award they beat out Brothers Osborne’s “Stay a Little Longer,” Joey + Rory’s “If I Needed You,” Charles Kelley, Dierks Bentley and Eric Paslay for “The Driver” and Blake Shelton and Ashley Monroe’s duet, “Lonely Tonight.”
The group were all smiles as they took the stage during the pre-televised part of the ceremony, with Kimberly Schlapman exclaiming, “Oh my stars! Oh my goodness!” as she approached the microphone.
“What a journey,” Phillip Sweet said before Karen Fairchild thanked “the beautiful writers of this song, Liz Rose, Hillary Lindsey, Lori McKenna … thank you for bringing us to this big old party, [producer] Jay Joyce for killing this record in the studio…just made the most beautiful, beautiful music.”
The televised part of the show will include performances from Carrie Underwood with Sam Hunt, Chris Stapleton and Luke Bryan and will be on CBS at 7:00.

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.
Yes last year surgery on outside of my elbow. Wednesday inside of elbow. All good.

It seems like every woman wouldn’t mind to share a kiss with Luke Bryan. Well, the lady that gets to kiss him regularly, his wife Caroline, says it’s something you would probably have to do yourself, like she did.
“He was always a gentleman,” she tells People Country she says of their time dating at Georgia Southern. “We hung out as friends and he never made a move on me. I kissed him first! He was always scared of making a girl feel uncomfortable, he wouldn’t cross a line.”
When they met, Luke was a senior and Caroline was a freshman. She is also glad the world is now getting a chance to know Luke like she and their kids do. “In college, we used to go dancing in a club til 4 a.m. and he’s just as silly at home as he is on stage. He walks around dancing all day, just being goofy.”
