Kelly Clarkson is looking forward to tying the knot... with Blake Shelton. No, the 'American Idol' winner isn't going to marry Shelton, but he is going to conduct her Texas-inspired wedding to Reba McEntire's stepson, Brandon Blackstock.
Brad Paisley releases his new album 'Wheelhouse' today (April 9), and a track from the record titled 'Accidental Racist' has already been stirring up controversy online. The collaboration with rapper LL Cool J attempts to address the ultra-sensitive topic of race relations, and far from apologizing, Paisley states: "I wouldn't change a thing."
Season 1 and Season 10 'American Idol' winners Kelly Clarkson and Scotty McCreery will perform on the stage where it all started once again. Thursday (April 11) is the results episode for the Top 6 of Season 12, and two of the show's biggest and most successful winners will teach the last half-dozen hopefuls how it's done.
Brad Paisley's 'Wheelhouse' delivers a familiar mix of humor, life lessons and scorching guitar solos, but it does it in a way different from any of the other eight albums the 'Beat This Summer' singer has released.

April 10, 2013 One of the bigger surprises of the ACM's was Luke Bryan winning Entertainer of the year. Not because he didn't deserve just because he was up against Jason Aldean, Taylor Swift, Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton.

The last hour of voting during the finals of March Bandness was frenzied, to say the least. Thousands of fans of Alabama and the Charlie Daniels Band cast a ballot in the waning minutes. The boys from Fort Payne, Ala. were trailing until the end, when they surged ahead and took the title of Best Country Band of All Time.
