Surprises? The 2016 CMA Awards had them, and this list of the Top 5 moments includes shocking wins, performances and the stories behind those performances.
Dixie Chicks singer Natalie Maines is apparently still not ready to make nice. More than a decade after she made career-damaging remarks about then-President George W. Bush, the singer turned to social media on Wednesday (Aug. 10) to vent her frustrations with 2016 Republican nominee Donald Trump and what she sees as a double standard at country radio.
You just never know who might end up onstage at a Taylor Swift concert. The country-turned-pop superstar surprised fans at a show in Los Angeles on Monday (Aug. 24) by bringing Dixie Chicks lead singer Natalie Maines out to duet with her on one of the trio's biggest hits, "Goodbye Earl."
The Dixie Chicks thrilled European fans recently by announcing they’d be reuniting and going on tour across the pond, but is it possible the band will take a tour stateside? According to Natalie Maines' Twitter page, it might be in the cards.
