The last of those red envelopes will be mailed out September 29th . . . and will have to be returned by October 27th.

The HARDY WE know almost wasn’t, He tells Forbes magazine that he wasn’t sure if he wanted a record deal. Saying he went in there and half the record label is in the room. And they said, ‘We’re offering you a record deal.’ I was like oh God, because I was still apprehensive. I just didn’t know what it would entail.

Carly Pearce spent some time on tour with Tim McGraw earlier this year, and although she’s an avid runner and big into other fitness regimens like Orange Theory and spinning, one workout she has no plans to incorporate into her routine is Tim’s intense CrossFit training. “Yeah, I’m not gonna be a part of Tim McGraw’s workouts because quite frankly, I don’t think I could keep up.

If Tim McGraw wants to do a running challenge, let’s go.”
