BEYONCE IS NOT GIVING UP HER COUNTRY GLAM



Beyoncé
is going all in on her re-branding as a country music star. Not only is her debut country album Cowboy Carter topping the charts, but now Beyoncé and her husband, Jay-Z are shopping for a mansion in Nashville and looking to open up a music venue there as well. (keep in mind Beyonce grew up in Nashville) According to my source, Beyoncé is already working on a follow-up country album. This isn’t just a gimmick for her – it’s become a passion.

KIEFER SUTHERLAND HAS A FEAR OF BEING IDLE

The first thing we noticed about this photo of Kiefer Sutherland at LAX is the suitcase in his hand – it’s a bit of a relic – heavy leather and no wheels. The beat-up cowboy boots are a clue to where he’s going. Kiefer is spending every minute he’s not acting singing country western music with his band. Coronavirus notwithstanding, he’s on his way to Zurich where he’s performing for a week starting Friday night. We imagine that whiskey and cigarettes cough of his might alarm a few people on his fight.

KIEFER SUTHERLAND IS NOW A COUNTRY OUTLAW

Who knew Kiefer Sutherland yearned to be a cowboy? He has evolved from playing the US President on Designated Survivor to country rocker with his own band. Kiefer is now touring quite successfully in Europe with his new album, appropriately titled Reckless & Me. He’s written a lot of music about his own life so it’s highly suitable for drinking, and he’s well received in the bars where he performs. Kiefer says he’s never been happier and he’s getting decent reviews …

NICOLE KIDMAN IS STANDING BY HER MAN?

Lion star Nicole Kidman appeared at an award show in Germany looking like she should be at the Country Music Awards in the 1970’s. Her fussy frilly flower print pastel frock seems awfully unsophisticated for the Oscar winning actress. Nicole must learn to say no when designers pressure her to wear free dresses that she would never buy for herself.

GWEN STEFANI: “I AIN’T NO COUNTRY GIRL!”

Well, THAT’S a relief! Gwen Stefani is back to her old self after that scary appearance at the Billboard Awards. You may recall, she sang a duet with Blake Shelton and she actually LOOKED like she was turning into a country western singer! Too much beige – no red lips or glam eye makeup, uninspired flat hair, and a glitzy sequin gown! Fans were distraught, fearing this was her new look. Fortunately she has reverted back to her cool rock n’roll self (above performing at the Samsung Summer Concert Series in NY) and hopefully she will STAY this way!

WE’D RATHER NOT SEE STEVEN TYLER IN A COWBOY HAT

AG070815_01(1tylercut)

He doesn’t LOOK like he’s “gone country” but Aerosmith rocker Steven Tyler recorded his latest single, “Love is Your Name,” in Nashville, and it definitely SOUNDS like country. He’s also signed to the same Dot label as Tim McGraw. But that doesn’t change the fact that he’s going on tour with Aerosmith this summer. Tyler introduced his new song on the season finale of American Idol. Two careers are better than one. And we like his outfit.

ASHTON KUTCHER IS NO HANK WILLIAMS

Ashton Kutcher can’t avoid putting his foot in his mouth and his Twitter obsession isn’t doing him any favors. He appeared as a presenter last Sunday on the Country Music Awards televised in Las Vegas and he looked like a doofus. (Why he was on the show at all is a mystery.) He dressed himself up in a HUGE oversize cowboy hat that nearly covered his eyes and a fancy old style western jacket with a jumbo silver belt buckle. Country singers on the show found it offensive and thought he was MOCKING them. He tried to tweet explanations and ended up sniffing “I grew up idolizing the style of Hank and Merle, maybe new country people just don’t get it.”

CHER GOES COUNTRY IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE

Cher provided the voice of the lioness in “Zookeeper” so she showed up on the red carpet at the premier in this cowboy and Indian inspired outfit. It makes sense when you consider that right now she is recording a country album with Carrie Underwood’s producer. It’s her first album since “Living Proof” in 2001. She’s in a country mood.
