Just refer back to early January when the rapper-turned-country singer sat before congress and shared his testimony to help get anti-fentanyl legislation passed through the house. Or when he called out pastors who turn funeral services into alter calls on X (Twitter) just a couple weeks later.

During the second night of this season’s American Idol auditions, 20 year-old contestant, Kaibrienne Richins, absolutely wowed the judges with her performance of Zach Bryan’s 7x platinum hit, “Something In The Orange.” Ahead of her audition, Kaibrienne shared that she was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s disease, a painful autoimmune disorder that affects the thyroid gland, when she was in fourth grade. Her father showed up to the audition with her and choked up as he recounted the struggles they’ve faced throughout the years: “It’s been a struggle to see the most beautiful girl in the world, who I know has more…

The two-hour event aired on CBS and Paramount+, and while the majority of the focus may have been on the dogs, Lainey and Dolly’s duet was the least forgettable moment of the night. “I Will Always Love You” was written by Dolly and released as a single in 1974. It reached #1 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart that year, and then again in 1982 when she re-recorded the hit forThe Best…
