In case you missed it...
Congratulations to Charles Kelley of Lady A and his wife Cassie, who've revealed that Baby #2 is on the way. The couple shared the exciting news yesterday in a joint post on Instagram. Alongside a carousel of pics of the couple and their son, they wrote "Biggest surprise of our lives! Baby Kelley coming early fall 2025. Big brother is the MOST excited." The couple have been married since 2009, welcoming son Ward Charles in 2016.
How are there still new worlds for Dolly Parton to conquer on the Billboard charts? With 60+ years in the business under her belt, it seems impossible, but this week Dolly did something that is a career first for her. Dolly has finally had her first #1 on the Billboard Country Digital Song Sales Chart. Her new song dedicated to her late husband Carl Dean, "If You Hadn't Been There," debuted at the top of that particular chart, which lists the bestselling country tracks across the U.S. each week, based purely on digital purchases. In all fairness, for a big chunk of Dolly's legendary career, that chart, and "digital," didn't even exist, so we'd give her a pass...except now we don't have to.
