Roseanne believes that she’s the only “canceled” comedian who lost everything and had no one to defend her publicly. She also called what happened to her a witch-burning.

It’s hard to believe, but we’re already up to Puppy Bowl 19. The rosters for Team Ruff and Team Fluff were announced yesterday. The “game” airs Sunday at 2:00 p.m. Eastern on Animal Planet. Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes enters the Super Bowl as this year’s NFL MVP. And Cowboys QB Dak Prescott was named the Walter Payton Man of the Year.

Chris Stapleton will become the ninth country star to do the National Anthem at the Super Bowl this Sunday. But not many country stars have performed at the big game. There hasn’t been one in the halftime show since Shania Twain in 2003. Even though Chris Stapleton is doing that Dierks Bentley wants the NFL to step it up even more and have Chris do next year’s halftime show.

Carly Pearce tells Everything Nash that she has several requirements for a romantic relationship. “Trust is probably the biggest non-negotiable for me. I just wanna be treated with respect. chivalry is not dead, they have to have a sense of humor and they have to love country music and they have to love June, my puppy.

Will there be another Austin Powers? Rumors say Mike Myers is turning down massive offers to bring the franchise back. Sources claim he does not need the money, already made tens of millions, and still cashes in every Halloween. Apparently he is focused on dad life instead of shagadelic life. So no, baby… he is not desperate.

Cody Johnson just confirmed he and Luke Combs finally cut a song together. Fans have been waiting years for this bromance to hit the studio. They toured Australia and New Zealand together, and now the friendship is officially on vinyl. And that is not all. Cody also says there is a track with Brothers Osborne on the new album. That record is about to be stacked.

Ella Langley just hit number one on the all-genre Hot 100 with “Choosin’ Texas.”
That puts her in elite company with legends like Dolly Parton, Carrie Underwood, Taylor Swift, Kacey Musgraves, Jeannie C. Riley, and Beyoncé. She is also reportedly the first female artist to hold number one on Hot Country Songs, Country Airplay, and the Hot 100 at the same time. Released October 7th and it has been sprinting ever since. That is not just a hit. That is a takeover.
