Crystal Bowersox Is Having The Best Week Ever

courtesy of Shanachie EntertainmentIt's a pretty good time to be Crystal Bowersox right now. First came the delightful news that the Season 9 "American Idol" runner-up just signed a new record deal with Shanachie Entertainment and will release her sophomore album, All That For This, on March 26.

Then came new 'Sox music, finally, when Crystal's old pal Ryan Seacrest premiered "Dead Weight," the lovely first single from her Farmer's Daughter follow-up, on his syndicated morning radio show:

And now RollingStone.com has premiered a fantastic duet track from All That For This, featuring the Wallflowers' Jakob Dylan, titled "Stitches." Click here to listen.

And, as if all that weren't enough to usher in a full-blown Mamasox revival, it has also been announced that Crystal is set to portray country music legend Patsy Cline on Broadway, starring in Always...Patsy Cline this summer. It certainly seems like the role Crystal was born to play.

Congratulations to Crystal for all her much-deserved success! It looks like 2013 may be her best year ever, too.

    By Todd Cunningham LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) - "Iron Man 3" was soaring past $1 billion at the worldwide box office Thursday, in a display of world domination that would make one of Marvel's super villains proud. The box-office bounty - roughly $700 million from abroad and $300 million domestically - is a major triumph for Disney, which bet big on comic book superheroes when it bought Marvel Studios for $4 billion in 2009. And its decision to bring aboard a Chinese partner for "Iron Man 3" and focus the Disney marketing machine on the booming foreign market looks pretty good right now, too. ...
