Fans of Reba McEntire and NASCAR are in luck next month. The country superstar has been announced as the host for the 2011 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Awards Ceremony. The annual ceremony will honor all the Sprint Cup champions and other drivers who finished within the Top 10 of the final series standings.
Reba McEntire, the Renaissance woman whose mountain of career credits include top-rated performances on Broadway, TV and arena tours -- and, of course, top charting recordings -- understands the difficulties new performers face.
This isn't what we had in mind when we put Reba McEntire's All the Woman I Am Tour on October's Must Have List. At a recent stop in Bloomington, Ill., a man leaped from the second story of a parking garage in an attempt to get close to the
Christmas and country music -- what could be more perfect together? Big Machine Records and Colonial Candle have teamed up for a holiday item that'll ensure you and your guests will be rockin' around the Christmas tree, enjoying quality tunes and warm, holiday aromas. The label and the candle company have joined forces to create a gift set that features an all-star lineup of country artists singing their favorite Christmas carols! But that's not all! The country carols will be coupled with a special candle, too!
Reba McEntire has signed on to wear two different hats for a new pilot TV show for ABC called 'Malibu Country.' According to The Hollywood Reporter, McEntire will not only serve as the show's executive producer, but she will also star in the sitcom. McEntire will play the role of a divorced mother of three who is trying to reignite her singing career after moving from Nashville to Malibu.
Fans of Reba McEntire's new song 'Somebody's Chelsea' have Hilary Swank and Harry Connick Jr. to thank for it. The actors didn't write the song, but a scene they shared in the movie 'P.S. I Love You' inspired the newest single from McEntire's 'All the Woman I Am' album.
Much like many of the female performers on Sunday night's 'CMA Music Festival' broadcast on ABC, Reba McEntire was looking good in all black as she sang her recent hit song, 'Turn on the Radio.'

For Reba McEntire fans looking to plaster every square inch of their home with the singer's likeness, it's the new line of stainless steel Reba cabinet knobs.

Country great Reba McEntire continues to do all the right things, yet somehow her most recent songs can't find space on country radio playlists. 'Somebody's Chelsea' is her fourth single from 2010's 'All the Woman I Am' album, and lyrically it's the most powerful and accessible yet.
There are still four more months until the calendar turns to 2012, but several country tours have already emerged as the year's most profitable. Billboard has ranked the Top 25 grossing tours of 2011 and two country tours landed in the Top 15, sharing space alongside the mainstream likes of U2, Bon Jovi, Lady Gaga and Usher! Country fans are notorious for their loyalty and for supporting their favorite acts by attending their live shows and these figures certainly attest to that fact.
