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.

James and Decker (Photo: Michael Chang)What do you get when you mix two really good-looking rising stars--one in the world of football, one in country music--and an upcoming wedding? Why, a reality show, of course!

Denver Broncos wide receiver Eric Decker and country/pop singer Jessie James have announced that their new series, Love and Other Contact Sports: Eric and Jessie, will debut this summer.

The show promises to "chronicle the sexy young couple’s road to the altar as they juggle careers, relationships, family and more," and reportedly has the seal of approval from Broncos president John Elway, who doesn't seem to be concerned about the fact that pro athletes historically haven't juggled sports and reality TV too well (Lamar Odom, anyone?).

Carrie Underwood (Photo: Ethan Miller)Nobody is going to tell Carrie Underwood to "shut up and sing." The superstar and American Idol is firing back at her state representative for a remark he made in response to her comments on a controversial bill sitting on the governor's desk this month.

Underwood, a longtime animal activist, spoke out with disapproval regarding the "Ag Gag bill" last week--a measure that would require anyone recording images of animal abuse to submit unedited footage or photos to law enforcement within 48 hours.

Willie Nelson (Photo: Rick Diamond)One of the most famous native Texans of all is stepping up to help his home state in a time of tragedy. Willie Nelson is holding a benefit to raise money for the town of West, which was devastated by a deadly explosion at a local fertilizer plant on Wednesday.

Nelson announced Friday that his April 28 show at the Backyard in Austin will now be a fundraiser for the West Volunteer Fire Department. "Anybody who can't buy a ticket can just pretend they did and send the money to the West Fire Department.," he told Texas Monthly.

George Jones (Photo: Jonathan Leibson)The legendary George Jones has been forced to cancel two of his upcoming live dates as a result of being hospitalized on Thursday.

Jones, 81, was admitted to a Nashville-area facility after a routine checkup revealed he was running a slight fever with irregular blood pressure, according to a post on his official website.

Brad Paisley (Photo: Taylor Hill)It may seem as if spring has just sprung, but before you know it, we'll be moving into summer, hot temps, and school vacations. If you're one of those who love the season, here's the perfect video to get you into the mood.

Brad Paisley's "Beat This Summer" features the sweetest summer love story of all—one with the familiar elements of a beachy day and a budding romance. However, this one also includes Oreo cookies, milk in stemmed glassware…and a curfew! Watch and reminisce about your own elementary-school crush days (and try not to get a case of cuteness overload from the young actor who plays Brad in this clip).

Gretchen Wilson (Photo: NBC)Gretchen Wilson put out her last album, I Got Your Country Right Here, three years ago--but the famous Redneck Woman has hardly been resting on her laurels during all that time. In the interim, she's moved homes, solidified plans for three--yes, three--albums to be released in 2013, and found her footing as a record label owner (Wilson founded her own Redneck Records in 2009 after parting ways with original label Sony).

Wilson, who has a well-documented history of ups and downs with her former label--where she released her star-making debut in 2004--says that she's comfortable being in control now.

"I've never been happier than I am right now, being the boss," she says. "I always felt a little bit everything was too big before. I always felt like it felt wrong that I didn't know everyone that was working with me by name. A lot of times I just felt like that got in the way and sometimes was a hindrance as far as just letting the music and the creative take its role."

Garth Brooks (Photo: Ethan Miller)Garth Brooks has a new lawsuit slapped on his radar: It's from a former friend, and it goes to "low places" indeed. In addition to levying serious charges against the singer, it also attacks his character--calling him "paranoid, angry, deceitful, and vindictive."

The suit was filed Monday by Brooks's former production partner Lisa Sanderson, who attests that over 20 years Brooks repeatedly messed up deal after deal she tried to strike for him in the film and television realms--as well as failed to pay her the full percentage of producer fees they'd agreed on when she signed up to work for his company Red Strokes Entertainment.
