Welcome to The List,
Congratulations to all of last nights ACM winners, the big winners of the night Female Artist of the Year Maren Morris, Male Artist of the Year Thomas Rhett and the big one Entertainer of the Year went to an obviously blindsided Luke Bryan who video chatted from L.A. “I go on stage every night, trying to be the best entertainer I can be. Trying to make every body in the crowd in the room sing and love one another, have fun. So, anytime the ACM’s recognizes me for that, it’s a dream come true.”
Gabby Barrett last night to performed her No. 1 single, “The Good Ones,” from Nashville’s Bluebird Cafe. Taking home the ACM New Female Artist of the Year award. She got the news of her award ahead of Sunday night’s show and celebrated the news in a decidedly lowkey way…after getting the news she went back and changed a dirty diaper from Baylah May who was born in January. She’s getting ready to tour this August in support of Thomas Rhett’s Center Point Road Tour.
Alma Wahlberg, mother of actors Mark and Donnie Wahlberg, and a regular on the reality show “Wahlburgers,” has passed. The news was shared on social media on Sunday by both Mark and Donnie on Instagram. The Boston-born mother of nine became a household name thanks to her appearances on the A&E series “Wahlburgers,” about the family’s burgeoning burger chain…she was 78.
Are there changes coming to The Voice…again?? After being the resident country coach for 20 seasons is Blake thinking about moving on? Fans seem to think so. Speculation has been swirling since an interview he did with Hoda Kotb on the TODAY show this month, when he admitted he hoped to leave the entertainment business behind and live a simple life with Gwen. When asked if he saw that happening in about 10 years, he said he’d like to see it sooner than later. The Voice airs Mondays at 8 p.m. ET on NBC
