Gwyneth Paltrow is putting the guest house at her home in Montecito, California on Airbnb, and if you book it, you can have dinner with her and her husband in the wine room.

Lainey Wilson says she’s in a very happy, healthy relationship right now and never wrote a love song until the last two and a half years -that would have been her late 20s.  She’s 31 now.  The inspiration hit when she started dating her current boyfriend, former NFL player Devlin “Duck” Hodges. She promises to tell their story on her next album. She said, “I’m learning things about myself right now that I didn’t even know was possible.  I’m able to share more of my life.  Being able to say, ‘Hey, I’m happy and healthy and in love’ . . . it’s something I didn’t know I was gonna get a chance to say.” There’s no word when the new music will be out.

Luke Bryan had a show in Denver on Saturday and brought a very brave little girl backstage . . . seven-year-old Mary Stegmueller.  (STEG-mule-er) She’s been fighting terminal brain cancer since she was four, and just started her 43rd round of radiation this week. She’s been a huge fan for years, but almost didn’t get to see him in concert this time, because she can’t stand for too long.  Her parents didn’t think they could take her until an anonymous donor bought out an entire suite for them. Luke heard she’d be there, and invited her backstage before the show to hang out.  Her whole family got to go too.  Mary had actually met him once before when he gave her a quick hug at a concert two years ago.  Her mom says she felt like they were “BFFs” after that and wanted to hang out more.  So, Luke made it happen. Back in December, he also sent her a video message on Christmas Day.  She told her mom it was the best gift she got last year.

Ashley McBryde recently celebrated her 40th birthday.  And even though she has an edgy look these days . . . that wasn’t always the case. She shared some photos from her days in the Arkansas State University Marching Band, and they’re fun.  She played the French horn, and was studying to be a band director.

Care to guess what TV show Brett Young used to fan girl over when he was a younger man?  He talked about it during an interview on “CMT Hot 20 Countdown”. “‘Dawson’s Creek’ was something that I had to record on VHS on nights that I had baseball or basketball games because I refused to miss it.  I know that makes me old.  But it’s true.”

Jennifer Aniston reportedly isn’t dealing well with news that her recently deceased dad, longtime soap opera actor John Aniston, is about to be written off “Days of Our Lives” in a rather dramatic fashion. According to a source, the character’s absence will finally be explained by killing him off in a plane crash. John Aniston starred in the soap opera “Days of Our Lives” as Victor Kiriakis from 1985 until his death last November at the age of 89.  “The funeral show is expected to air sometime late August, early September,” they revealed. Jennifer had a rocky relationship throughout her career with her mother, Nancy Dow, who died in 2016. The actress was also estranged from her father, but the two were reportedly on good terms at the time of his death.
