Miranda Lambert’s new song ‘Bluebird’ is climbing the charts, and she talks about what the message in the song means to her “‘Bluebird’ was written from a poem. And, Luke Dick had the idea and he sent it to me in a text late one night and I was like, ‘Please save this song for me. It’s so cool and I want to be part of it.’ And, I just love what it says. I think it’s very poetic; I think it tells a story and I love the feeling that I get when I say I love the part in ‘Bluebird’ where I say, ‘I keep a light on in my soul and a bluebird in my heart’ because it actually is a reminder that every time I sing that lyric that that’s what I need to do. And, you know, I hope this song gives people the same feeling that it gives Luke and Natalie and I. Um, it just feels like a reminder to stay positive and that, you know, there’s a brighter day if you keep the right outlook.”
Gwen Stefani no doubt is a hard worker and Blake is blown away… Blake and Gwen have only recorded a few songs together. He’s amazed by how hard of a worker she is. She won’t stop until a song is perfect
If you’re a huge wrestling fan…Yesterday, WWE announced that a free version of its streaming network is launching, carrying over 15,000 wrestling shows, including “Monday Night Raw” and “Friday Night SmackDown.” along with many new programs. The regular version of the service, launched in 2014 costs $9.99 per month….but, I like free…free is good…
TMZ reports Carole Baskin is going to take over Joe Exotic’s Oklahoma zoo. She won a $1 million judgment against Joe and his mother several years ago. Now the current owner Jeff Lowe has 120 days to vacate the property. Jeff and his wife posted, on social media “Considering Carole spent approximately 2.5M chasing her 1M judgment, we congratulate her on her new acquisition of 16 acres in rural Oklahoma. The possibility of human remains being buried on this land should make her feel right at home.” I wonder what he’s talking about….

In Theaters this weekend: ‘Avatar: Fire and Ash’
Avatar: Fire and Ash picks up after The Way of Water and dives into darker territory, introducing a more aggressive Na’vi tribe tied to fire and volcanic regions. It cranks up the conflict, explores moral gray areas, and shows Pandora is a lot less peaceful than we thought.
