Little Big Town

Little Big Town is back to host the 2012 Ride For a Cure Sunday, June 10th with proceeds benefitting the T.J. Martell Foundation. This will be the group’s 6th consecutive year hosting the ride.

The event will stay true to form with the exception of a new starting location for registration and the pre-ride Jam Session that will be Mickey Roo’s (509 Hillsboro Road, Franklin, TN 37069) in the Kroger Independence Square parking lot on Hillsboro Pike (see below link and QR code for specific directions). Registration begins at 8am.

At this pre-ride location guests and riders can expect performances by Cali Rodi and others on the welcome stage and then will depart at 10:30am for the Harley-Davidson Columbia Superstore.

Post-ride festivities will begin at 12pm and include a lunch hosted by Applebee’s, an All-Star Jam Session with performances by Lauren Alaina, Dean Alexander, Love and Theft and Little Big Town as well as a live auction for all attendees.

To date over $260,000 has been raised for the T.J. Martell Foundation since the beginning of Ride For a Cure. There have been over 2,500 motorcycle riders to participate in the ride, and an additional 2,000 people have joined us over the last three years at the Harley-Davidson Columbia Superstore for the post-ride All Star Jam concert. Past performers and supporters include Martina McBride, Jamey Johnson, The Band Perry and Luke Bryan among others.

Taylor Swift to the Rescue…Again

Taylor Swift

When it comes to taking care of her fans, I’m not sure anyone does it better than Taylor Swift. From prom date requests from ill fans to funny video antics, Taylor pays attention. Well, to no surprise Taylor is at it again.

Last September, a mother and daughter Summer, ventured out to Taylor’s Sacramento Speak Now tour stop for a night of girls fun. Unfortunately, a drunk driver stopped them in their tracks, and put them on a very long path to recovery.

I could see him passed out at the wheel, coming closer and hitting us,” said Summer. “It was really scary.”

Officer Lowry was impressed by Summer’s strength through the ordeal, and her inability to stop smiling. He decided to try to contact Taylor which proved to be harder than he thought. So, he reached out to CBS 13 (Taylor’s lucky no….coincidence, I don’t think so). The news station used their powers to help out.

Taylor people contacted them and are sending Summer and her mother to the next Sacramento show along with some swag.

You can see a video here.

Josh Kelley and his wife Katherine Heigl are the proud parents to two adopted girls. According to People.com, Josh and Katherine named their second daughter Adalaide Marie Hope.

“Her full name is Adalaide Marie Hope Kelley — Adalaide because of my great-grandmother, Marie after my middle name, and Hope because that is what the process became, said Katherine.

The baby girl was adopted from here in the US, unlike her 3 1/2 old sister Naleigh, who was adopted from Korea.

Katherine, who who doesn’t cry easily, shed tears of joy.

I’m not gonna lie, this was one of those moments where you can’t help but be overcome with emotion. There were some tears and (a) lot of giddiness and joy.”

Congrats to the happy couple!!
