Country music and social networking go together very nicely, thank you. There are ten country artists who have over a million Facebook fans - Reba, Taylor Swift, the late Johnny Cash, Carrie Underwood, Kenny Chesney, Tim McGraw, Lady Antebellum, Rascal Flatts and the Zac Brown Band.
Reba's revealed the name of her next cd. It's called "All The Women I Am" and it streets on November 9th. What's life like for Reba, who's been having hit songs for over 30 years? “Narvel and I have so much fun out on the road touring. And then when we’re feeling a little tired and we need to recharge the batteries, we take off and see the world and do a little vacation. So this is a wonderful time in my life and I’m having a blast.”
In more Reba fun, you'll remember that her video shoot for "Turn on the Radio" was not just a long, hot day but also a long, stormy night. Reba chronicles it all for us in this behind-the-scenes video:
There'll be a very special guitar pull in Los Angeles on September 23rd.

Dierks Bentley apparenlty has a problem with one of his ears. Early this morning, he tweeted, "the ER doctor this morning: "you have a big a## hole in your eardrum." so in layman's terms you are saying...?" Keeping tabs to let you know what he's got going on, because I sure don't understand that medical terminology!
Congrats to Blake Shelton, who's "All About Tonight" is the #1 country song in America this week.
The tweet of the day is from Chris Young: "I just woke up on a tour bus. Thanks for putting me here guys."
