Music City Minute 4/22 – Brad Paisley, Trisha Yearwood, Blake Shelton, Chris Stapleton

Brad Paisley in a New PSA

Hey, we all want to get back to ‘normal’ and see live shows again. Our favorite country stars are feeling the same way and Brad Paisley wants to make sure it happens sooner, rather than later. The “No I in Beer” singer is taking part in a national campaign to encourage everyone that can, to step up, “be a fan,” and get vaccinated. The psa was filmed at the Bridgestone Arena, which of course, is home of the CMAs and hopefully, we can all see you perform there in front of a sell out crowd soon Brad!

Trisha and the Not So Simple Life

One would think being married to a country singer like Garth or Trish would be a dream come true, and for the most part, you would be correct! Trisha says she is very much in love with her hubby Garth Brooks, but he can be hard to deal with at times. She says the hardest part of their marriage, which was even more difficult during a pandemic, is that they are both alpha personalities. The queen says that she is used to handling business when it comes to her life and Garth is no different. So when it comes to the two of them together, they both want to be in charge. Something tells us that Garth is a big softy though and usually gives in to Trisha. I mean he is the one that started calling her ‘Queen!’

Blake Shelton Just Won’t Let Go

We all remember when country superstar, Blake Shelton, was named People magazines, ‘sexiest man alive.’ It happened way back in 2017 and Blake just can’t let it go! He still keeps a copy of the magazine for guests to read while visiting and says that it is a really proud moment for him. We can understand how it might be something to be proud of, but maybe, he should take it out of the bathroom and leave it out somewhere else for his guests to see…

Chris Stapleton the Spokesman?

That’s right! Chris Stapleton has signed on with Dodge Ram pickups to be the new spokesman in a new series of advertisements. The country singer uses his talent to cover Al Green’s, “I’m a Ram,” in a fashion only Chris could do. “One of my managers, Zach Peters, brought this song to us when we first started working with Ram,” Stapleton said. “We played it, hopefully, with the most respect and reverence, and sure had a fun time doing it. I think it’s a great song. It makes you feel good. It makes you feel like you want to get in a truck and drive.” You can check out the ads, if you haven’t seen them yet, on YouTube.
