Yahoo News says Brett Young and his wife, Taylor, are the proud parents of a new baby girl named Rowan Marie.  Brett says, he wanted a boy. "I think all men initially think they just want boys. But our across the street neighbors, we went over for, like, a play date, and we had just found out Taylor was pregnant again, but we didn’t know if it was gonna be a boy or a girl yet. And, their oldest daughter and my nine month-old daughter just sat on the couch very chill, hanging out, while the two boys chased each other around the coffee table for two hours straight and never stopped screaming and throwing things at each other. In my head, I was like, 'Oh God, I hope the second one’s a girl!'"

Then also the pop side, you know, Beyoncé, Destiny’s Child. I was loving people that had something different, that did something a little bit different”.  She says those aren’t necessarily my musical influences of course, but they’re influences to me as far as what they did later on in their careers versus when they started.
