Luke Bryan had to take some time off from American idol because he came down with Corona…and the update on how he’s doing? “You know what, I’m feeling great it was um…I had two or three days, it was really really, it was tough.  I went to a whole different section of the house, I didn’t see the boys for ten days.  But, I’m feeling great, just a little fatigue.  I’m just really happy to be back, doing idol I was heart broke to miss last week.“ Paula Abdul filled in for Luke while he was gone.

Thomas Rhett has a special message for YOU all of his fans “Good morning everybody, we’re just sitting here eating some cereal and I was reflecting on the last couple of days and how just incredible they’ve been. With the ACM’s and just ya’ll’s response to this new music we’ve been putting out has been completely overwhelming.  So, I just wanted to give a big shout out to Country radio.  Thank you so much for believing in this song.  The record comes out in just a couple weeks, looking forward to it.  Hope you have a fantastic day.” His new double album ‘Country Again’ Side A comes out April 30th with Side B out later this year.
