Tim McGraw and Faith Hill Island for Sale

Tim and Faith bought an island in the Bahamas called L’île d’Anges in back in 2003, but they didn’t move in until 2012. They said that the building project turned out to be quite a bit more extensive of an undertaking than they had initially anticipated and they ended up having to build housing for the construction staff, and also had to create infrastructure for construction crews, including electricity and water. L’île d’Anges, which is also referred to as Goat Cay, is about 19.77 acres and offers nearly 1.3 miles of waterfront property. It’s unclear from the listing if McGraw and Hill still own the property currently, or if the island is being listed on behalf of another party, but it could be yours for the low, low price of $35 million!

Miranda Lambert Shows Fans How Much She Missed Live Shows

It is happening! Live shows are making a comeback this year and one of the first stops for Miranda Lambert was Billy Bob’s in Ft. Worth, Tx. Her song, “The House That Built Me,” will forever be an anthem for some sort of normalcy across the country, but when she started to sing it in front of a live audience for the first time in over a year, the superstar broke into tears, leaving the fans to finish the song for her. It was a beautiful performance, none the less, and it just goes to show how much the artists miss us as well.

Randy Travis Makes His Biggest Fan Happy With Tik Tok

“King of the Road,” Randy Travis, has discovered the popular social media platform of TikTok. With it, he’s bringing surprises and joy to such users as, Bobbe, the singing half of GBandMe. Florida-based welding instructor Matthew Stewart shares the GBandMe account with his grandmother and she has a ton of followers. She never expected that her favorite star would duet with her while singing Hank Williams Senior’s, “Hey Good Lookin,” but that is exactly what happened! We haven’t seen or heard much from Randy since his stroke in 2013, but he is still as amazing as ever and still bringing joy to all of his fans!

Brad Paisley is Throwing a Huge Party

By now, we have all seen the new Brad Paisley psa, where he says “be a fan, take the shot.” He really wants you to have it done by July 4th though, because he is throwing one heck of a party in downtown Nashville! The show is to take part in front of an estimated 200,000 fans to celebrate our nations freedom as well as live shows. You know Brad is going to do it right too. It has been well over a year since he has been in front of a live audience after all. So then, what are you waiting for? “Be a fan, take the shot,” and go party with the best of them July 4th!
