Carrie Underwood Raises Over 100k for Charity

We all know how much Carrie Underwood loves to spend time with the family, especially during holidays. Over the Easter holiday however, she decided to hit the stage and raise over $100,000 for charity. She raised the money for a non-profit organization which she is also passionate about, Save the Children Foundation. It was a livestream concert entitled, “My Savior: Live From the Ryman,” and you can now find clips on YouTube.

Reba McEntire Shares Her Experiences With The Great Loretta Lynn

In a recent interview Reba shared her experiences with Loretta Lynn as her new album tops billboard charts again!  She said that she could barely even talk about Loretta without crying. They must be tears of joy as Loretta’s new album is making history by being another added to the list in the top 10 every single decade since Billboard started. That’s 42 if you lost count.  Color us impressed! The only other country stars to have the same record are, of course, Willie Nelson and Dolly Parton. The new album, “Still Woman Enough,” features collaborations with Reba, Carrie Underwood, Margo Price and Tanya Tucker. The album debuted at no. 9, April 3rd, 2021.
