Blake Shelton will be on Saturday Night Live January
24; he’ll host and perform and the short list of country stars that have done
both are Garth, Dolly, Willie and Kris Kristofferson.
Blake was also rumored to perform The National
Anthem at the Super Bowl but his people now say that is not true.
American Idol premieres tonight on FOX with
Keith Urban and president and CEO of Nashville’s Big Machine, Scott Borchetta as
this season’s mentor. Keith says Scott will follow his gut rather than just
judging on how well someone sings and it’ll be a shorter season this year as ratings
have been terrible!
Tonight on CBS Lady A will perform during the
People’s Choice Awards so will The Band Perry and Hunter Hayes.
Finally - tomorrow Garth’s on all four hours of
The Today Show; something that’s never happened before in the 62 years it’s
been on. I bet at some point during the 4 hours, we’ll see Garth cry.
