Jason Aldean (Photo: Gary Gershoff)Are you ready for the 2013 Academy of Country Music Awards? We are too--and some of the winners are already being announced! These awards will not be televised during the show's official broadcast due to time constraints, but there are quite a few names you're sure to recognize. Here's some of them:

It's been a busy week for Octomom Nadya Suleman. She's allegedly under investigation for welfare fraud, and just detailed her work on a porn film to Oprah Winfrey. So what's next? Appearing in a country music video, of course!

To be fair, this ain't your typical country-music clip. Suleman stars in the latest from celebrated parody artist Cledus T. Judd--who's spoofed tunes by country luminaries ranging from Shania Twain to Kenny Chesney.

His new video, "Honeymoon," spoofs Little Big Town's No. 1 hit "Pontoon"; and yep, it's just as it suggests. Even better, actually. Suleman is featured as Judd's redneck bride, complete with perhaps the tackiest wedding gown imaginable. If the exaggerated satin poufs on the shoulders weren't enough, Suleman sports a camo-print thermal underneath to make it extra fetching.

The pair reportedly jet off to Dollywood for their post-nuptial tour. The video will debut Monday on CMT.

Shooter Jennings (Photo: Frederick M. Brown)Shooter Jennings may be known for his status spearheading all things outsider in the music world--the son of outlaw legends Waylon Jennings and Jessi Colter, he champions artists that don't fit in traditional molds, shuns the Nashville machine in favor of Los Angeles, and generally operates on his own wavelength without variation. It could be forgiven that one might assume he's somewhat prickly--or at least unpredictable--in person.

However, nothing could be further than the truth. In the flesh, he's actually an extraordinary low-key kind of guy. When Jennings arrived at Yahoo! Music for his Ram Country session, he brought nothing but his jeans-clad self and a guitar--no entourage, no special requests.

Are you ready for it--? Garth Brooks and George Strait will be taking the stage together!

The two megastars--who have never jointly performed--are making this appearance as a musical tribute to the late Dick Clark, who was the producer of the ACMs from 1979 all the way to his death in April 2012.

Chely Wright and Lauren Blitzer-Wright (Photo: Jason LaVeris)Country singer Chely Wright will be delivering twin babies this summer…and, it looks as if she's going to have a pair of little cowboys!

Wright announced on Joy Behar: Say Anything Thursday night that she and wife Lauren Blitzer-Wright are going to be the proud parents of identical twin boys. She explained to guest host Howard Bragman that they've known about the babies' gender for some time now, but decided to keep the news private for a while.

Wynonna Judd and Michael Scott 'Cactus' Moser attend the 60th Annual BMI Country Awards at BMI on October 30, 2012Wynonna Judd and husband Cactus Moser spoke with Us Weekly about the motorcycle crash that nearly killed Moser and about how their relationship has changed and grown since that fateful day in August, 2012.

In the extensive interview, Judd and Moser open up about the accident that changed both their lives--just two months after their wedding. While the couple were out riding together on separate bikes, Moser's borrowed motorcycle didn't turn properly and the 55-year-old drummer collided with an oncoming car. "I remember standing over Cactus, wondering whether he was alive or not," Judd recalls in the new issue of Us Weekly. "I kept saying to myself, 'Be calm, be calm.' When I realized he was still alive, I noticed the leg was gone. I saw remnants of it, um, all over the highway. I just stood there, trying to make sense of it all."

Moser's hand was shattered and his left leg was severed from his body. Fortunately an off-duty EMT happened across the scene of the accident. He called

Taylor Swift at "Red" tour rehearsals (Photo: TAS)All Taylor Swift fans know that 13 is the singer's favorite number. However, 13 has never been luckier for Swift than this week! On Wednesday, March 13, the superstar both kicked off her rabidly anticipated Red world tour, as well as debuted a brand-new video for the single "22."

"Since 13 is my lucky number, today also seems like the perfect day to release my brand new video," Swift told Good Morning America, which gave fans the first look at "22," a sunny romp through Malibu, California featuring the singer cavorting with a troupe of buddies.

Swift revealed that the girls who accompany her are not actors, but part of her gal-pal posse: "I never had this much fun shooting a video because my friends in the video are actually my real-life best friends."

Blake Shelton (Photo by Rick Diamond/Getty Images)Blake Shelton may seem like a laconic fellow, but behind that casual country ‘tude, there’s obviously a lot of drive that lets him keep three irons in the fire—namely, the imminent arrivals of a new album, a new season of The Voice, and his annual hosting stint for the Academy of Country Music Awards.

During Nashville’s Country Radio Seminar this past week, Shelton sat down with a few key programmers and DJs to preview his forthcoming album, Based on a True Story, which comes out March 26. In a conversation after the playback, he talked about some of the new record’s more provocative songs (like “I’ve Still Got a Finger”) and also how changing partners on The Voice and the ACMs might change the tenor of those gigs. We sat in on the chat and bring you some highlights, here…

On how the chemistry of The Voice has changed by subbing in two new judges:

“The dynamics of the show now are different. I didn’t realize till Cee-Lo and Christina took some time off that that show is really
