Taylor Swift won everything short of the Powerball jackpot Sunday night (May 19) at the 2013 Billboard Music Awards.
Hot young country newcomer Hunter Hayes got the opportunity of a lifetime when he opened up for superstar Carrie Underwood on her Blown Away Tour this year. He wrapped up his dates with Underwood at a performance in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada on Saturday night (May 18) -- but she wasn't going to let him get away without a proper sendoff, pulling an onstage prank that really got his goat.
One woman pop country juggernaut Taylor Swift is an unstoppable force in today's music business, not just in country, but cutting across genres. She's performing at the upcoming Billboard Music Awards, where she's also nominated, and she spoke to the publication in advance of the show to share her highs and lows of the last year.
Good luck to Acadiana's own Hunter Hayes, who is nominated for Best Country Artist at Sunday's Billboard Music Awards!
Hunter Hayes is emerging with his own unique style. The 'Wanted' singer often pairs sneakers with suits at red carpet events, but it works for him since his take on that trend is young and fresh, and his combinations manage to be youthful without being sloppy. He modernizes the notion of suit-like separates with cool colors and kicks, and you can get his look easily and for around $200.
Fans everywhere are looking forward to the 2013 CMT Music Awards, which are coming up in June. The first country music awards show to let fans vote for their favorites, the yearly event also features live performances by some of country's biggest artists -- and this year is no exception.
As we all get readied up for this evening's Classic Country Saturday Night show, let us look back in country music history. Here are some of the events that happened on this day along with some of our country stars who were born on May 11.
There are dozens (if not hundreds) of country songs about moms, and many country singers are even mothers themselves. For this reason, the Mother's Day holiday is sure to be one that is surely not going to be overlooked on any humble artist's calendar. Take a look at the women who helped shape the ladies and gents of country music -- the ones that give us so much wonderful music year after year -- in this list of Country Stars and Their Moms.
Tim McGraw's 'Highway Don't Care' video is like a mini-movie, which isn't surprising, since the singer has had plenty of big screen experience as an actor in full-length films. The clip acts as somewhat of a PSA to warn of the dangers of texting and driving. But it's not that simple.
The 2013 CMT Music Awards nominees have been announced, and two of country music's hottest men -- Luke Bryan and Eric Church -- lead the way with four nominations each. Miranda Lambert also tallied four nods, three as a solo artist and one as part of all-female trio Pistol Annies.
