  Mindy, Miley & Kenny - Oh My!

If you would have told me that there would have been major front-page material stories in the news this past weekend about three well-known country stars, I would have said "not a chance."  This is the weekend that was and some of these stories will be talked about for days, weeks and months to come.  Kenny Chesney gets injured, Miley Cyrus poses for a "not so family friendly" picture and Mindy McCready is being linked to a famous baseball player.  It's all inside this edition of the Nashville Minute.

  A Lifetime Of Doing Good

  Wow, Who Is That?


What can make a man stop dead in his tracks during an interview?  If the man is rapper Snoop Doggy Dog, it's country beauty LeAnn Rimes.  Snoop was on hand Monday night for the CMT Music Awards and LeAnn caught his eye backstage "wow, who is that?"  The two met and what may happen next could shake up Nashville (in a good way).

  Friends, Music And A New Book

What do Alan Jackson's wife Denise, Trace Adkins, and Trisha Yearwood have in common?  Besides being a country music star (or in Denise's case married to one), they all have written a book.  And now, you can add Tim McGraw to that list as he prepares to release his first book named after one of his songs.

  Reality Or Not To Reality?

I don't know about you but I feel like television has lost some of its edge in recent years.  Gone are the days of those real TV shows telling a compelling and true story.  Now we are faced with the day in and day out world of reality TV.  Remember these: Temptation Island, The Real World, Road Rules, The Simple Life and the list goes on and on.  Some make it (i.e. American Idol) while others whither away (i.e. Nashville).
