Billy Currington seems to be living out the title of his hit single these days, at least in the case of his latest tale. The country star was indicted April 24 on felony charges of making terroristic threats and abuse of an elderly person, according to court records.

The legal problems have cost Currington his slot playing the opening show at NASCAR's All-Star Race at Charlotte Motor Speedway next month. Authorities for the race confirmed to USA Today that the legal issues are the reason for his ejection. Josh Turner is slated as his replacement.

Jones back in the day (Photo: Michael Ochs Archives)The legendary George Jones, who passed away Friday at the age of 81, will be well remembered for his music--as well as the colorful stories that inspired it. Although perhaps best-loved for his aching tales of heartbreak, Jones also knew how to bring one heck of a funny story to life via song.

One of the best examples of this is 1996's "Honky Tonk Song," which relates the true story of what happened when a drunken Jones--who had a notorious alcoholic streak through much of his life--had his car keys taken away by his very fed-up wife back in in 1966.

As the story goes: The hard-living Jones had been drunk for several days, and his spouse at the time, Shirley Ann Corley, decided to physically restrain him from having any more liquor. She knew he was not in any shape to walk the eight miles into town, so before leaving the house herself one night, she hid every set of keys they owned…except one.

Jones, a native of Saratoga, Texas, began his recording career in the 1950s and charted his first Top 10 country single, "Why Baby Why," in 1955. "The Possum" would go on to record more than 160 charting singles, more than any other artist in any format in the history of popular music.

Jones's catalog is filled with beloved classics such as "He Stopped Loving Her Today," "She Thinks I Still Care," and "Walk Through This World With Me"; as well as duets with former wife Tammy Wynette such as "Golden Ring."

He was a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame and the Grand Ole Opry, and was a Kennedy Center Honoree. He has won a score of awards for his work, including numerous accolades from the Country Music Association and Academy of Country Music, as well as several Grammys.

Jones was survived by his wife of 30 years, Nancy, as well as his children and grandchildren, sister, and nieces and

Jason Aldean and wife Jessica (Photo: Albert L. Ortega)Back in October of 2012, country superstar Jason Aldean was caught in a sticky situation on camera--apparently making out with "American Idol" competitor Brittany Kerr, a gal who was not his wife and mother of his two young daughters.

Aldean handled the incident with uncommon tact, addressing his followers on social media immediately following the scandal with a straightforward message about how he "screwed up" as a result of having one too many to drink.

He appeared largely forgiven--by his fans as well as his spouse, who showed up with him on CBS This Morning to discuss the incident-- in a remarkably short period of time.

However, it seems the damage may have ran deeper than initially portrayed. Us Weekly is reporting exclusively that Aldean and wife Jessica Ussery are actually separating in the wake of the scandal.

The Band Perry (Photo: Rick Diamond)When sibling trio The Band Perry entered the Ram Country studios to perform some of their new tunes, the atmosphere was considerably jubilant. The sibling trio had just come off a very successful release week for their new album, Pioneer, which entered the country albums chart at No. 1 and the all-genre Billboard 200 at No. 2.

This would be fantastic news at any time, but it's especially sweet for the young band, who were in the enviable-but-stressful position of following up their massively successful debut—resulting in a bit of wracked nerves preceding the album's actual street date.

Jewel (Photo: Jason Merritt)Pop/country songstress Jewel sports one feature that has consistently drawn attention over her nearly two-decade career--her famously crooked teeth, of course. Why has she never chosen to fix them? Turns out there's a extraordinarily simple reason why.

"I just don't like pain," the 38-year-old admitted to Health. "I never wanted braces."

She adds that her uneven smile has actually worked in her favor over the years. "People have always loved my snaggletooth, which is hilarious," she noted to the magazine. "It should be my logo! I've never felt like it didn't make me sexy."

Tate Stevens (Photo: Mike Moore)If forced to say one single thing about Season 2 "X Factor" winner Tate Stevens, it would have to be that he's certainly an efficient guy. While his predecessor champion on the reality show, Melanie Amaro, has yet to release a full-length album, Stevens blew through the process of creating a complete release in an extraordinarily short amount of time.

Just how short? Well, you'll have to read our exclusive interview with him to find out the amazing details. At any rate, the resulting self-titled debut hit stores right on schedule April 23--and what's more, Stevens couldn't be happier about how it all turned out. "I'm super proud of this thing," he said excitedly, no less than half a dozen times during our conversation.

Glen Campbell (Photo: Lisa Lake)It's the end of the road for Glen Campbell...that is, when it comes to touring. However, the country legend--who turned 77 on Monday--plans to give his fans a birthday gift this year anyway.

Campbell, who suffers from Alzheimer's disease, announced he's going to stop playing live, but will be releasing a new album this summer.
