Top Earning Country Music Acts

Forbes is at it again and it seems as if there is quite a bit of money to be made in country music. Forbes released its Top Earning Country Music Stars list and believe it or not, only one is a woman. Coming in at #9 (there is a tie for #7) is a pseudo-old timer – Alan Jackson.

Would you take parenting advice from Tim McGraw? The award-winning country crooner (turned fashion designer) and father of three girls is hoping you’ll part with $20 to read his take on how to parent daughters.

The rumors of Hill’s pregnancy started when the blond beauty wore a flowing black top to the … Continue reading

At the end … Continue reading

Being that today is Valentine’s Day I thought it appropriate to give those happy pairs sometime ink. Here are just a few of Tinseltown’s star couples with staying power: JERRY AND ANNE Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara.
