Reba McEntire addresses Taylor Swift rumors and Ernest’s new album | Music City Minute

Miss Reba McEntire is setting the record straight. You may have seen a viral post on “X”, claiming that Miss Reba was disappointed when she looked up on the big screen while performing the national anthem during the big game, only to see Taylor Swift laughing and drinking and making a mockery of the event. She was quoted as saying, “I let her have it afterword. She’s an entitled little brat.” Miss Reba clapped back with her own post saying, “Please don’t believe everything you read on the internet. I did not say this. Taylor is a wonderful artist, strong role model, and has done so much good for so many people and the music industry.”
 
“Flower Shops” singer, Ernest, has launched a mayoral campaign. Well, sort of. He’s had a lot of fun teasing his next album, “Nashville, Tennessee”. He created a whole campaign where he is running on the platform of “legalizing country music in Nashville.” He’s already dropped five new songs from the project including “I Went to College/I Went to Jail”, featuring Jelly Roll. Ernest’s “Nashville, Tennessee”, will be released on April, 12.
