Chuck Wicks teased fans with a string of cryptic Twitter messages and photos over the New Year's holiday, leading many of his followers to believe that the 'Stealing Cinderella' singer is officially off the market.
In November 2009, Chuck Wicks and Julianne Hough split up after a 15-month relationship that included an 18-episode stint on 'Dancing With the Stars.' At the time, they said they needed to focus on their careers, and Hough began spending more time in Los Angeles. Som
Who is ready for more music from Chuck Wicks? Well, Chuck Wicks, for one. But new music isn't the only thing on his radar. In addition to writing for his own forthcoming second studio album, the singer will also have a cut on the new Jason Aldean project, slated for release in October.
If you've ever heard Chuck Wicks' song 'Stealing Cinderella,' you know what a tearjerker it is. The song tells the story of a man asking his girlfriend's father for permission to marry his daughter -- basically, stealing Cinderella. And while anyone with a heart would be moved by this emotional song, Joseph Gottschall, an English professor at Washington & Jefferson College, was so moved by 'Stealing Cinderella' that he was inspired to write a whole book from the idea.

Former Monkees singer Davy Jones died of a heart attack today (Feb. 29) at the age of 66.

It seems like music competition reality shows are springing up with increasing frequency. There's this awesome, brand-new "must watch" show called 'The Vibe,' where the judges critique talent while encased in sensory deprivation chambers. They can't see. They can't hear. They don't know what the heck is going on with the singers who are auditioning. Country singer Chuck Wicks even turns up for a stint as a guest judge, complete with his own headphones, sunglasses and soundproof, coffin-like chamber that is akin to being trapped in a black void for four hours.
If you think Chuck Wicks is nervous about sharing the stage with Josh Turner and other country stars in front of 20,000 screaming music fans at Buffalo, N.Y.'s WYRK Taste of Country concert tonight, June 3, well, let's just say he's slayed bigger dragons this week. And we mean that almost literally, because Wicks shot and felled a 700-pound alligator just two days ago.
Country singer Chuck Wicks has gone through a lot of changes over the past few years since the release of his debut, 'Starting Now.' In fact, Wicks went on a bit of a detour when appearing on the eighth season of 'Dancing With the Stars' in 2009. While the show opened him up to a whole new audience, it was a bit of a distraction. Now, he's ready to refocus the his eye squarely on the country music prize.
In today's instant media, digital age, things can get misconstrued -- and quick. Take the case of 'Stealing Cinderella' singer Chuck Wicks.
