Earlier this year, Morgan Wallen was caught on camera using the n-word. Despite this controversy, his album "Dangerous: The Double Album" will finish 2021 as the year's best-selling album. It is projected to total close to 3.2 million. The album spent its first 10 weeks in the number one spot and since has remained in the Top 10. It will be the first country album to finish first since Taylor Swift's original "Fearless" which sold 3.2 million in 2009. The runner-up spot goes to Olivia Rodrigo's "SOUR" which is projected to close at around 2.7 million for 2021.
Carrie Underwood is pumped for her first-ever residency! It begins Wednesday, December 1st at The Theatre at Resorts World Las Vegas and has shows scheduled for December 3,4,8,10, and 11. Demand was so high, she added six more dates for 2022 -- March 23, 25, 26, 30 and April 1 and 2. “We are super excited to get to have a residency in Las Vegas. When you think about Las Vegas, you do think about incredible shows, and to be a part of that legacy is exciting," she said. Underwood is joining in the likes of Celine Dion, Katy Perry, and Luke Bryan as the founding headliners at the Strip’s new luxury destination. Her residency is titled "Reflection" and Underwood explains why, “We want to do our hits. We want to reflect upon all the things that we’ve been so blessed to be able to have accomplished over the past few years and that I’ve been lucky enough to do this,” she says. “And then obviously when you think about a staging standpoint, Reflection is, you can do a lot with that visually. So, it just seemed like a great concept as far as what we could do with it on stage and also having that kind of personal reflection being able to look back on all of the things that we’ve been able to do.” One dollar from each ticket sold for "Reflection" will be donated to Make-A-Wish Foundation of America, which Underwood has been involved with for more than 15 years.
