      Days after entertaining fans home during the coronavirus chaos, the country music couple will do an hour-long isolation special for CBS on Wednesday, April 1.
      Mar 30, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Married country stars Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood are taking their popular social media studio sessions to TV for a live concert special.
      The singers will field fans’ song requests for “Garth & Trisha: Live!”, which will be broadcast from the comfort of Studio G, the recording studio located in the couple’s Nashville, Tennessee home.
      Brooks has been performing regular gigs for fans via Facebook Live for the past few years, and last week (March 23), he recruited Yearwood, his wife and fellow musician, to help entertain fans stuck at home during the coronavirus chaos.
      The show proved so popular, with 5.2 million fans tuning in, the session crashed a number of times, prompting the pair to play on for longer than planned.
      Now Brooks and Yearwood are set to do it all again on Wednesday (April 01), only this time, the hour-long isolation special will be broadcast on U.S. network CBS from 9 P.M. EST.
      The country couple is also digging deep to help those in need with a generous charity donation.
      “We’re seeing how big things can be when we all do them as one,” Brooks and Yearwood share in a statement.

      “In addition to the special, we and CBS will donate $1 million to charities to be determined, combating the COVID-19 virus.”

      The musicians join the likes of Angelina Jolie, Arnold Schwarzenegger, James Taylor, Kylie Jenner, and Kim Kardashian in making $1 million (£803,000) pledges to aid in the fight against the coronavirus pandemic.

      Mar 30, 2020
      AceShowbiz – The Who are delaying the North American leg of their “Moving On! Tour” due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
      Rockers Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey announced the jaunt had been delayed until the fall of 2020, in a statement on the group’s official website.
      “The April and May stops on The Who’s Moving On! Tour are proactively being rescheduled to the fall/autumn out of an abundance of caution,” the statement reads. “As soon as we have the dates finalized we’ll share the updated schedule, and all tickets will be honored accordingly. Thank you for your understanding.”
      “Both Pete and Roger — and the rest of The Who band — cannot wait to get out there and be with you all and share in some great music. Long live rock.”

      The Moving On! Tour’s North American leg was scheduled to begin April 21, and included the band’s first Cincinnati-area concert since a stampede incident at their show on December 3, 1979, resulted in the deaths of 11 fans.
      The dates also included a trio of rescheduled gigs and a six-night residency at Las Vegas’ the Colosseum at Caesars Palace.

      by

      Instagram

      The pop superstar takes to Instagram to share a photo of her wearing a red, PVC catsuit that was taken when she was filming the music video for the 2000 hit.
      Mar 30, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Britney Spears took to social media to reflect on 20 years since the release of her iconic 2000 hit “Oops!…I Did It Again”.
      The star released the tune as the lead single from her second album of the same name, with the record peaking at number nine on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and securing Britney a Grammy nomination for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance.
      The release was accompanied by a music video featuring the singer wearing a red, PVC catsuit and, alongside stills from the shoot, she wrote on Instagram: “Oops!….how did 20 years go by so fast?!??! I can’t believe it.”
      “I remember that red suit was so freaking hot …. but the dance was fun and it made the shoot fly by !!!!!” she continued. “And now we’re sitting in quarantine wishing we were on Mars….. of course I am just kidding !!!!! But seriously you have all shown so much support for this song and I thank you for it …. ”
      “sending love to you all,” she finished, adding a bunch of red heart emojis.

      The “Toxic” star is fortunate to remember the shoot at all, with MTV reporting at the time she suffered a serious head injury after a camera fell on her. Following the incident, amid her mum Lynne Spears’ fears that she might have suffered a concussion, Britney required medical attention and received stitches, before resuming filming four hours later.

      Diplo Praises Queer Artists for Changing the Way Music Exists

      by

      Instagram

      Fronting the May edition of an LGBTQ+ publication, the ‘Close to Me’ DJ claims that it’s ‘always been the queer community who have to scratch it out of nothing.’
      Mar 28, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Diplo has credited queer artists for the evolution of music in recent history.
      The DJ and producer, 41, spoke with British LGBTQ+ publication Attitude, where he praised the “fearlessness” of queer artists who have “changed the way music exists.” 
      “The original guys who were creating hip-hop were queer. House music, Baltimore Club, New Orleans bounce music – every time there’s a genre that falls out of nothing, it’s always been kind of like the queer scene that created that,” he said.
      The star, real name Thomas Wesley Pentz, continued, “It’s always been in the underground. It’s like Vogue that Madonna put out, and she’s always shown respect and love, but it’s always been the queer community who have to scratch it out of nothing.” 
      “I think that’s back to the fearlessness because when you have that energy – the masculine energy, the feminine – you’re taking all the risks because there’s nothing to lose,” the Major Lazer star mused. “I think it might be challenging for some straight men, but for queer artists it’s kind of second nature. They’re able to go wherever they want and, like I said, there’s no walls.”

      Diplo appears on the cover of the May edition of the publication with pal and country music star Orville Peck.

      Megan went on saying that she and the late rapper were somehow similar. “I really like the way Tupac speaks. Like, his cadence. His flow. He’s just very dominant. He just give big talk energy and I just feel like I do the same,” she noted. “When he talkin’, he just really be talkin’ that s**t that I like. I feel like when my Hotties listenin’ to me, that’s how they feel.”
      In the interview, Megan also shared that unlike the lyrics of the song off her “Suga” album, she never fought another woman over a man. The star also hinted that one of her exes was trying to control her while they were together, though she didn’t name names.

I’m an awesome friend. It’s not all I be doing, it’s just that maybe when you loggin’ in, you came to see me twerk, ’cause you ain’t see that freestyle I just dropped? I can rap and twerk.”
